The Boardwalk isn't as exciting as most people believe it to be. There are a few entertainers (about 3 different ones, if I remember) that do a short show about 5 - 10 minutes. That's it. There isn't anyone constantly walking around and doing things, only these performers who come and go. Other than that, there are about 5 carnival style games, other than that, there really isn't much going on. It's a nice place to go, but don't expect to make a full evening out of it.
