it was an excellent experience for me and my three teenage sons who had a blast on the rides and with their friends they got on so many rides the management there is very kind and courteous always trying to help thank you and can't wait to go back!!!! more on Yahoo! Travel

With rides such as The Grizzly, Drop Zone, and sometimes the Free Sprite Remix, you will never know what to expect! more on ThemeParksOnline

Even the name had been removed from the building and the arches leading to its entrances. more on ThrillNetwork.com
