Old Ride Question

[Kawana]

Here goes,

I've been going to KI for around 20 years. Does anybody out there remember the "Flying Shoes?" They were located, I think, in the general area of King Cobra / Delirium. There were yellow and orange shoes, shaped like wooden shoes from Holland or Denmark or such, and one color would fly out further than the rest. Like I said, this question is for the "Old Timers". Anyway, I loved those shoes. To me, as a 7-9 year old, there was nothing better.

Yes they were over in that area where Adventure Express is now at. I remember that one--that was a fun ride after being thrown around on all day by The Racer and it was gentle and relaxing. Ah yes, I remember it well....Thanks for the trip down memory lane! LOL!!

And nice way to cool down on a warm day.

And you may now go to Kentucky Kingdom and ride "The Shoes".

Really? That's where they're at now? Where is this "Kentucky Kingdom?" It may be worth a trip just for that reason.

Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom is in Louisville, Kentucky at the fairgrounds.

I find that odd because, I was at K. Kingdom and I don't remember seeing the "Flying Dutchmen" there.

I rode that at KI when I was little so I know I would have spotted them at K.Kingdom. Are you sure that they were sent there?

Just wondering.

They are there and have been for many years now. Back in Belgian Village by the entrance to Mile High Falls and Twisted ....uh....Twins...

I remember the Flying Dutchman shoes, part of Octoberfest. It was one of my favorite "relaxing rides" when I was a kid. The actual location is currently where Coke Zone is located and was also the location of Skylab.
