Interview with Bam Margera at FDR park in Philadelphia

[@TonyDelkFan]

Sir BamBam seems happy again. I really hope it lasts because he’s important to a lot of people

[@joshwest7049]

Go find better things to do. It's not that important

[@d7r41n]

Yea okay...

[@UNCLECHUDKINZ]

Someone close to bam dear god show him this video. Show him he’s smiling… he still loves art and hobbies such as skateboarding. More creativity from this guy and less about the drama is a must! We’re all rooting for him ❤

I was the one that put the very first crew of skateboarders together to build FDR park, and we worked with the city planners and their contractors. There was a photo op with the mayor and us in it wearing hardhats.

Dude that is awesome! A mark in skateboard history for sure. Do you still visit FDR?

@johnhogan6588 that's the design you came up with? A ledge and 2 pyramids?

[@johnhogan6588]

@@toddheyer122 the city planners came up with the design the contractors did the re-Barb and I did the cement work with my friends didn’t design it though. I tried to explain to them how to angle the corner piece to get it perfect with a stencil, string, and two nails, they said they make pools so they’re are going to do it the way they know and we can fix it after. There was a ledge a pyramid two corners all made the same day. After that when we went to love park, I told Bam and Stevie what we did and they have to come check it out so they saw it the next day. Big group of us went We were also the first to skate it. The cement was dry that day. There’s a city picture of us with the mayor the day it was built.

[@Mike-bz5ew]

I skated and sprayed graffitii there a few times with some friends and met BAM there. I don't think he remember me though. I remember him makin fun of the tattoo on my ass. We also use to skate downtown philly too here n there. Cops use to fuck people i knew so we stopped skating and hanging in philly because it costed so much to go. I learned about CKY from one of BAMS friends in philly I forget his name. The band is really good. I was drunk alot back then 40oz of steel reserve or olde english and skating. Hit up bmore bowl alot. Was suppose to go to one of BAMS partys when he got his land but ended up at party round my way. Cant do any of that shit no more my body feels beat up. haha

The end of graffiiti pier collapsed on the july 31st @ 6am... I went down there yesterday to check it out and they fenced it all off.... Tho now there is a few holes in it.. wink wink.. anyway a huge boat it the end in the 90ies at some point so thats why it fell into the water.. if anyone goes out there be cautious and dont go alone...

Dude its great to see Bam and you as a content creator have this oppurtunity to have this interview, but shouldnt someone clean up the fooking place if its such a mecca of Philly skateboarding. I get its under an I95 bridge, but does anyone care about the trash lol?

It's less attractive because of robots and the Olympics, but all the little niches and the free spirits are forever in skateboarding, it can't die, it's not rollerblade man

[@a7xSkateboarding]

It's not dying, it comes and goes in waves. That's always been the case since the very beginning

[@joshuafult84]

This isn't new though, Skateboarding became unpopular at about 2008-2010 range.
