A we talking parks that really don't exist anymore, or parks that no longer exist as they were 25 years ago?

Six Flags over Georgia used to be quite a nice attraction. Now I wouldn't consider going to it, IMO.

It's such a disgrace that Astro world is gone. Loved that place

That place was a constant lawsuit in the making.
Didn't a few people die there?

My parents use to get summer passes to Astroworld for $35 for my brother and I.

We would get dropped off and spend all day there nearly all summer

Every video arcade I ever went to as a kid.

I've thought about buying a bunch of old games just so I can reproduce the sound and be transported to my happy place. But, it's not practical.

Plus, YouTube has it for free.

Never went to PB, but I remember when it closed. There was a classic TV ad with a guy saying he won't be able to go, because... He won't get out of jail until after it closes -- then we see he's behind bars, and his jail cell is being locked





Anybody else remember this ad?

I believe so. Can't exactly recall everything but I do seem to recall people dying there bc of some of the rides.

Your mom is the size of an amusement park and I rode her. But not sure if she still exist or not.

The Pavillion in Myrtle Beach. I used to live at that place during the summer. It wasn't very big, but it had some really fun rides.

Does anyone remember a little water park in Opelousas in the 80s? I don't remember what it was called but I'm pretty sure I went there once.
