Penguin Place : A Passion For Penguins

This fun and informative waddle-mentary takes you through nearly 40 years of Eric Bennett's http://www.penguin-place.com passion for penguins. From his waddling trick or treating as a kid, to his Next Stop South Pole shops of the 80's & 90's to his present on-line igloo. What's missing from this penguin tale is that over the summer of 2009 Eric, his family and Penguin Place relocated to beautiful Northampton, Ma.

Eric - Loved the video! To think it all started when you got hit by a Good Humor Ice Cream truck and now you are an international star. My kids know all about the days in the mid-80s when I worked at One Stop South Pole and sold that $100, rhinestone-studded penguin you named "Elvis." Hope business never stops booming.

Great rags to riches story. We bought 500custom penguin shot glasses for our wedding here and they were hand delivered by the owner
