that tends to happen when you dont allow them to get on the ice for a few generations.

I think they got into shite years later for having all of the black people get off the roller coaster so they could film their commercial

I had no idea they had an ice rink. It was Leos when I was coming up.

That Wild Mouse was a wooden piece of shite.
And I believe the cigarette smoking monkey is still alive and at Dixie Landing.

That's a swimming pool. I think he's talking about the non-concrete versions.
