This sure brings back happy memories. By the time you get the ring, it is too late to throw it. When you finally do get it in the clowns mouth, you feel like the biggest hero in the world. You win nothing, bit that doesn't matter. Just sheer fun.
This ride is fun! But It’s unfortunate how the carousel does not let the riders win anything after that ring goes inside the clown’s mouth. To be honest, the carousel would be loved and popular like the Giant Dipper if they added free GOOD prizes to its’ game during its’ 100th anniversary. Free prizes such as free food (it’s need a clean and well-operated restaurant next door to make this prize a reality), a chocolate edible brass ring, and a poster based on a popular/underrated video game, TV show, or a movie, and stuffed toys based on superheroes, anime, movies, and video games. Lastly, the sad truth is that the free prizes I bought up in the carousel don’t exist and will never happen because there is no room at all to fit in a stuffed toy section and a new restaurant. But after all, this is a great idea I recommend the Boardwalk to do for its’ oldest attraction.
I know....I got on this ride threw rings and I got 2 or 3 rings in there but I didn t win nothing either. They should reward whoever makes the ring into the clown s mouth. Maybe it s a reason why I don t hardly get on the Carousel much nowadays. My number 1 ride is the Giant Dipper then the Fireball
@@jojovaldez2766Correct. Honestly, The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk should’ve given prizes for the carousel’s ring game. For my idea, free Ice Cream from Carousel Cones and a stuffed Horse plushie would be great prizes to win because they’re the rider’s reward for getting his or her rings inside the clown’s mouth!
@@andrewlardieri4110 I posted that comment 4-5 years ago. I suppose I just prefer band organs to brass rings. They are rather important to carousel history and I don't actually think they're dumb. I suppose I was impatient for 9 million more band organ videos when I posted that comment. I'm always looking to hear more Wurlitzer and Ruth band organ tunes... always.
This ride was in the movie The Lost Boys .
@eml1967 do people try and keep the metal rings as souvineers?
I did.
The same music in the first part of this video is in my video of this ride. Pretty crazy.
Used to go here all the time and steal the rings and throw them at the animatronics in the haunted castle 😊
What happens when an ring goes in ?
When a ring goes in, the clowns eyes light up pink and a fog horn reports. I've made it several times over the last 40 years.
It used to be a bell sound when I was a kid. Now it makes different sounds.

You could wait to throw it until you come around again.

Why does everyone film the stupid brass rings? Film the bloody band organs instead.
you stay out of this
