Wizard of Ozz? I'm sorry but I do not see how that well attract more visitors then the wild west theme.... They really need to come up with something a bit new and exciting so they can bring in the younger crowds. But Wizard Of Ozz...

[fanofki]

to me it would be annoying to see wizard of oz everywhere. i would get tired of it it, but who knows, it might work.

Too bad they don't sink the money into Joyland. I think that park has way more potential than Wild West World, especially a Murphy Brothers ran Wild West World.

[The Interpreter]

True that. I really miss the wonderful dark ride, the coaster there with its fixed lapbars (on a PTC!, the only adult sized PTC I ever rode with fixed lapbars!), and the interesting old time atmosphere of that place.

[Zorba]

I never actually went to Joyland, but have seen pictures. I think their dark ride "Whacky Shack" was very similar, albeit smaller, to the Phantasmagoria at my home park and the Whacky Shack at Waldameer.

I'm planning a trip to Waldameer this year just for Whaky Shack to remind me of my youth.

"Because of the business he's in, moving it isn't a big deal.

"It won't cost me nothing," he said."

... well clearly, nothing is free!

[The Interpreter]

And in typical Terpy fashion, Terpy points out the reporter misunderstood....the buyer clearly said it won't cost him nothing, which means it will cost him something!

Terpy, who could care less, as he does care some, and he doesn't want to be careless!
