Fran said New Jersey shore people call us visitors Bennys, a pejorative
term. Benny could have two possible origins.
May be an acronym from where we got on the train:
Bayonne, Elizabeth, Newark, New York City. Or maybe
it’s for people who took therapeutic trips to the shore
that were beneficial for anemia, hemophilia. and hysteria.
Disliked tourists in southern New Jersey are called Shoobies.
Maybe because they ate prepackaged lunches in shoe boxes,
or maybe because they wore sneakers and shoes on the beach.
Please continue your research on this vital question.
Not to mention Sinatra's "Shoobie Doobie Doo", Shoobie Doobies or Scooby Doo.
