I used to love going there in the 90s as a kid. Does anybody know the reason it closed down?

Some of it moved to Blue Bayou. I used to have my birthday parties there all of the time in the 80s. The Mighty Mouse was the shite

Smokin chimp and the mouse ride that Im sure was about as safe as those gypsy rides held together with zip ties and liquid nails.

I had a few bday parties there and at the time in the 80’s there was nothing better.

Same reason most places in BR close. A certain demographic moves in and brings crime, then the tax paying citizens become scared to bring their families there. Said demographic glorifies their crime culture. No tax paying citizens stand up for themselves like Texans do.

It was the Wild Mouse. I used to prefer the sheer speed of the Galaxy, though. The Wild Mouse would give me whiplash. I think the Spider Monkey May have been the last “new” ride installed before it closed...

I thought they just got tired of running it and moved it to Blue Bayou.
