    I'll never forget all the great times I had at Pontchartrain Beach in 1981, 1982, and 1983. Just being in the area emanates eternal nostalgia for me. It's forever a part of my childhood and my life. I was too small to ride the Zephyr Roller Coaster but I was allowed to ride the Ragin Cajun.

    I went in the 70's and early 80's. It was the best park ever. It got sold to some guy who wanted to make condominiums there which turned out to be a scam. It went undeveloped for ages until UNO built a building there. I also heard that rising admissions prices and the new popularity of home video games kept more kids at home rather than going out to the park. I'm just grateful that like many others i got to experience the magic of being there, and saw it for myself. I'll always miss it.

    It's a damn shame they closed down this legendary amusement park. I loved going there whenever I visited my family in New Orleans and I made sure I got on rides like the Zephyr, the log ride and the bumper cars.

      They closed because of pollution concerns in the lake & customer decrease after segregation ended. Ignore the race baiting comments by ignorant racists, who ironically never have anything to say when whites do mass-shootings.
