I wondered about that...

I hadn't even noticed that the ride was closed today until I followed an entourage over to it...couple of park people escorting a cameraman and reporter from WCPO-TV. I wondered what possible interest they could have in a three-year-old ride that happened to be closed today. I figured it was an incident that had happened somewhere else, as there didn't appear to be anything wrong or unusual about the ride...
