Pismo Beach is a classic California beach town with a raucous history earned prior to and during the turn into the 20th century, Prohibition, the Roaring Twenties and World War II. Once known as the "Clam Capital of the World,'' Pismo to this day boasts a reputation as a punchline in show business -- from Bugs Bunny cartoons to television series such as "Dragnet'' to stand-up comic routines. "Pismo Beach? Let's hurry,'' Bob Hope quipped on a 1947 radio show, "some clams are having a people date tonight.''
