15 Signs You Are From Milford CT

“It’s between Bridgeport and New Haven” – Something you have definitely said more than once in your lifetime. Let’s start with some childhood memories. Here are 15 signs your are from Milford CT.

1. As a tween, you and your friends definitely spent every weekend at the Westfield Mall, sporting Hollister t-shirts, Bath & Body Works bags in hand.

2. If you were lucky enough to be going to a post-shopping slumber party, you’d have your friend’s mom swing by Tommy K’s video to grab Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging (on VCR tape of course).

3. You went to at least one birthday party at the YMCA pool.

4. Until you grew up, and would dress up fancy to get hibachi at Tengda for every birthday party.

5. The beaches…(Walnut, Silver Sands, Gulf; any of them make for a relaxing summer day!)

6…And the array of ice cream shops. Between Walnut Beach Creamery, Sundae House, Scoopy-Doo’s, Carvel, Cone Zone, and beyond, you are bound to fulfill all your frozen treat needs.

7. You either went to Johnathan Law or Foran High School if you were from Milford. It seems like Lauralton Hall and Platt Tech were only home to out-of-town students in Milford CT.

8. The most common meeting places for group hang outs: Eisenhower Park or Gulf Beach.

9. Your group then decided to go hunting for the elusive Melonheads on Zion Hill.

10. Your first date was most likely at Rave Cinemas in the mall.

11. That glorious day when Colony Pizza moved into the old Harrison’s Hardware Store.

12. Or perhaps you preferred wings at Colony’s next door neighbor, Archie Moore’s.

13. However, you still mourn the day that Panera was exiled from the mall, and moved down the Post Road.

14. Knowing not to drive down the Post Road. Ever.

A true Milfordian would know this is actually I-95, but there were no pictures of the Post Road on Google Images.

15. Loving Milford, even though you probably couldn’t find it on a map.
