Six Flags Great America Trivia Test

OK lets see how you guys did.

Sponsor of the Grand Music Hall- America Motors or AMC

Homtown Fun Machine was in Yukon Territory, named the Saskatchewan Scrambler.

B:TR occupies the former Tidal Wave footprint.

The FULL name of the streetcar system was called the Hometown Square and Orleans Street Railway, affectionatley known as Allie's Trolley's.

Original sponsor for Raceway was Standard Oil (which became Amoco) It was called the Barney Oldfield Speedway, and the cars were built by Arrow Dynamics.

Aunt Marthas used to be Maggies.

The oldest ride is Ameri-Go-Round built in 1917.

There was a Dolphin show, then later a high dive show (the pool still exists under the stage)

The Mooseburger Lodge was called the Klondike Cafe (the Snowshoe Saloon is the one that sells beer)

LTNP or BBL was called Fort Fun.

First Federal Bank of Chicago sponsored the Sky Trek Tower

The lighthouse was removed to make way for V2

Steven Wilson got them all right (or close to it anyways)

I have to rack my brain to figure out some more that Steve can't answer.

Edited for Spelling.

That's right!! The Barney Oldfield Speedway!!! I forgot completely about that one. I always preferred the cars over in Orleans place though. What the hell were those called?
-----------------
I think the cars in Orleans Place were called Trafique Jam or something like that. They were removed for the rapid ride and moved to Knobles I think.

Ah yes, La Trafique Jam! It was always my favorite when I was a little shaver because it had better scenery IMHO, that and it was close to the theatre (Theatre Royale) that my uncle worked in at the time.

Sorry about that.
