    And to this day, Sam is still stuck in the T3 restraints 😂 yup, it used to be a Six Flags park from 1998 to 2010 when amid a bankruptcy, Six Flags ceased operations of the park immediately on February 4, 2010 after the rejected their lease with the Kentucky State Fair Board. Ed Hart hoped to have it reopen that year by Memorial Day, but negotiations initially failed and it wasn't until January 2013 that the state fair board approved the lease, and the park reopened in 2014. Holiday World in Indiana was even interested in operating it!

    As a Ky girl, I am glad to know that Kentucky Kingdom has been purchased and may get some attention! I think it has a lot of potential but, in my opinion, from day one there has just always been something missing! You and Sam are so much fun! You live in Orlando where they have some of the most awesome theme parks in the world but you still enjoy all of the little things in smaller parks and fun touristy things! I think you all just have fun whatever you do and it’s so much fun to watch! 💕💕

    If I had a nickel, for every time Ed Hart saved the park, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
    "No running, diving or horseplay" I guess when it comes to whether or not this park allows horses, the answer...is _neigh_

    Being able to Marathon StormChaser with no line was crazy. T3 was running later in the day, around 6, and easily had the longest line in the park, you didn't miss much by not riding it.
    The ride op on Thunder Run was one of the best of our entire trip too, dude was hilarious.
