If you have any questions about the enduring appeal of the United States, consider our foreign-exchange student: She came in 2019 from Spain, got locked down when the Wuhan Bug roiled the world, then saw our city go up in flames and mayhem when George Floyd died. She got the full modern U.S. experience — and she still wanted to come back.
Where to go for fun, to show her how 2024 is an improvement? Perhaps it would be better to rewind the clock, a lot, and head back to 1982. So we spent the night in a massive video-game and pinball arcade for a history lesson on bygone America.
