Why are the kids on the invitation white?

Are you saying that black kids weren’t allowed at Fun Fair Park?!

Not at all. Just not at my party.




ETA: For any pearl clutchers reading. The above is 100% a joke.

Yeah, I knew that was coming. Guilty I suppose.

Still in my 20s at heart though.

Worked there in 1977. Was responsible for the birthday party rooms. Herded kids from the room to the kiddie rides and then back in. Cleaned up afterwards. First real job I had. Good times.

And I personally refused to ride the Wild Mouse. That thing scared the crap out of me

Rode the Mickey Mouse "rollercoaster" in '73, when I was five.

Was terrified for 2 hours and nauseous for 12.

1973... the South... white parents

It might be a joke to you but I bet your parents didn't send any of those to black kids

Yeah that thing was crazy. I rode it a few times way back in the day but don’t blame you a bit.
