RollerNut Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Looks like the Go Gator is a Gone Gator now! 2 Quote

BoddaH1994 Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Can Ohio ever have a state fair without something terrible or odd happening? 3 Quote

King Ding Dong Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Future new story: Ohio man sets up roller coaster in back yard for his 5 year old’s birthday party. Annoyed neighboors complain to authorities. Dad arrested and sentenced to 10 years. 1 3 Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted September 4, 2019 Author Posted September 4, 2019 I want to hear the thief’s side of the story. 3 1 Quote
Oldiesmann Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 I'm wondering what the thief/thieves plan to do with it. Most people likely don't have the proper electrical hookup for such a ride, not to mention the space it would take up or having to explain to others how you suddenly ended up with a roller coaster 3 Quote
malem Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 This takes joyriding to a whole new level. Stealing something as conspicuous and distinctive as a roller coaster doesn't seem to make sense, but criminals usually aren't the brightest of individuals. Hopefully whoever owns this ride is able to recover it. 3 Quote
King Ding Dong Posted September 5, 2019 Posted September 5, 2019 I suspect the goal is to sell it for scrap steel. There are haulers that will come pickup for free anything made of steel. BBQ, driveway basketball pole etc. One would hope the yard he takes it to would be suspicious and alert authorities. Quote

malem Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 The coaster has been found. No arrests have been made as of yet. https://www.dispatch.com/news/20190906/roller-coaster-ride-stolen-from-union-county-recovered 1 Quote
IndyGuy4KI Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Seems like a lot of effort to get that 100th credit. 1 1 Quote
