How many times did you visit the park : Way to many times to count but 1999 was the last time and complete sad that I did not get to spend at least one more day before they shut it down.
|
Favorite Ride : The Zippin Pippin. First roller coaster I ever went on and when I took my wife back a couple of years ago to visit family. I told her she had to ride this ride but it was to late. Memphis has taken so much of my childhood, it sucks
|
Comments(max 3 lines per box) : Have been to both parks and loved them both. I moved away when I was 20 and wish to this day that I could have taken my son to this park. He will never know that feeling of having a memory like this thanks to the city of memphis.
