In addition to the go kart track they also had bumper boats, mini golf and a few other small attractions. They had a lazy river, some inner tube slides, a few enclosed slides, a few speed slides. I remember going to the place a lot as a kid. One set of two dual racing speed slides could be seen from the highway, they were the same as the racing ones at The Beach. On the lower ends of the stairs to these slides was an about 45 degree angle slide wiht a small raft and one small enclosed slide, they all emptied into the same pool. The big wave pool was towards the front of the park and what remains of it is seen up in that picture. When I went and visited it today I never went past the fence or did anything to tresspass, but I was able to get pictures of some of the old slides still hanging in the air, some old lamp-posts from the mini golf course, and the best thing I could see was where they used to have volley ball nets and big picnic pavillions. However, most of that area was flooded. Everything, including the banquet halls located by it seem to be abonded. It was rather creepy and One time while positioning my camera to look inside where the old bumper boats used to be, I heard something crash very loudly. I will have the pictures up soon.

I remember awhile ago I had a topic about Surf Cincinnati and Zoso Beast commented that he would LOVE to see some pictures from the now defunct and abonded water park: More will come soon for all to enjoy. *note: all pictures were taken legally and no illegal trespassing was done*

PKD is getting IJ, PKI is getting NICK, PC is getting BB, what is PGA and PCW getting?

No one ever confirmed that the Ghoster Coaster was leaving.

They share the parking lot with the astrodome, the Reliant center is across the street from the Astrodome. The reason they want to sell the park is because the land is very valuable. Back on the late 70's Astroworld needed money and sold off part of their land to a car dealership to make some money. Yes it is a problem that they share a parking lot with the astrodome but the astrodome is rarely used now, atleast for sporting events and concerts. My dad worked in Astroworld back in the 80's and many of his friends still do and live in the area. They are extremely angered by Six Flags decision to sell the park. The last new ride Astroworld got was Serial Thriller in 1999 and SWAT a year or two later. It would be fantastic if Cedar Fair bought this park and turned it back around. They could get some new coasters, and the park would look beautiful. Six Flags sucks.

SFAW has the only swatter in North America and now that park is closed thanks to Six Flags brilliant decisions once again, maybe CP or someone will buy it if it doesnt get moved to another SF park.

Whats GL getting next year?

Ravens close, but no Beast.

If your using ghetto to as a term to refer to African Americans, I take really strong offense to that as I am one and not all of us are as stupid and awful acting as you seem to assume and claim.

Unfortuanently you wont be able to use those perks till next season since thye all ended.

Hey, some guests such as myself really enjoy that sign. I mean that is one fantastic sign, and the grass, beautiful! So stfu.

There have already been reports of infantry movements against Fred Flintstones stronghold at the Boulder Bumpers. It seems general spongebob is taking no prisoners.

What makes you think im not Heather Siemon-Dick

Im quoted in that article.

I like Ferris Wheels but still get very nervous on them. I rode the massive one on Navy Pier in Chicago and was freaking out, although this was 4 years ago. That thing is so tall plus with all the wind it scares the crap out of you. I wouldnt evel let go to get my camera out for some pictures.

lol im just kidding with you

a better apoligie would be NICE!

Although Scoob, a lot of the rides you mentioned in your post above could be the names of current rides with an easy re-theme. I.E. "Hey Arnold's Taxi Chase". All you have to do is put up a new sign and slap some paint on Top Cats Taxi Jam. The one at PGA is already called "Hey Arnold's Taxi Chase". "Tommy's take off" could easily jsut be an Atom Ants re-theme. "Dora’s Railway" could just be a re-theme for the hand cars. "Backyardigans Swing-A-Long" could jsut be a re-theme for PIXI and DIXIES swing set. "Lazytown Sporticopters" could easily be re-themed from Yogi's skytours. "NickToons TV Road Trip" could also easily become the small train ride in the back of HBL. I think next year will be more re-theming than all new rides.

PKD's will be different. Its called "street chase" because you will be chased by cops. The ride will be the same however a 4th car will be added that looks like a 1/3 scale of a cop car just like on Taxi Jam! Just kidding, I dont know anything about PKD's. I think that name is pretty stupid "street chase". However if they did it differently than the other two and themed it after a police chase then it would be pretty cool. They could have police barriers in front of the track that collapse right before the cars come through and a police helicopter and road spikes and things like that.

SOB still gets a good wait that rivals The Beast's wait on the weekends and believe it or not theres a lot of people who do like it.

They have made a sequel that went straight to video! LINK I remember seeing it at an old video store once.

When they made the coaster couldnt they have made it longer and bigger by putting it in that area outlined in red? I know before Paramount owned the park that plans had been finalized to build the thing with Arrow Dynamics so did the previous owners just not have enough money to make it longer?

My mistake, I thought he was talking about the Demon for some reason, the one at PGA looks like crap.

It was pretty old and couldve required a lot of maintenance or to make room for another more appreciated ride. Paramount's Great America still runs their copy of the same coaster.

No one knows for sure what is going in next year and isnt allowed to reveal it if theyd like to keep their jobs, in time everyone will see what is going to happen.
