Did the park even have a Myspace or Facebook page? It seems to me that that would be the easiest way to begin free marketing but I don't think that they did.

I wonder, though....just how many ride construction sites really do look like that?

Maybe it's more than we think.

I'm sure they all do to some degree.

But the show sure made it seem like they don't and that these guys were struggling.

Im not sure that Myrtle Beach was an Ideal place to put this park .It seems like a spring break kind of place where attendance is only high for one month .Cali, or maybe Florida would be a better location or maybe even Detroit ,I have been to Myrtle Beach and its full of mini Golf Courses . I dunno just my thoughts.

Heck why didn't they put the park in Texas? Houston should have SOMETHING to replace Astroworld.

It's not a year-round destination, but summer in Myrtle Beach is huge.

I love that Dark Ride!! The smell in there was something I will never forget.. I'm I the only one?? I'm glad I got to enjoy it.. Program alert- People who where down there didn't even know the park was there! This park would have failed anywhere in the 50 states this year!


No I don't have a kid, but I still want to ride!
