I went there in '61 when I lived in Duncan.
Quick Draw was a haunted house in the early 80's. Fun dark ride when I was a kid.
Honestly in my opinion it is my least favorite thing there... The line is always long. The lighting is kinda off. And half the guns don't work... I wish they would fix it or replace it
It'll be interesting to see what Six Flags does (or doesn't) do to this park.
Joshb6498 “or doesn’t do” more like will not do
Hopefully buy more land and build more rides! :D
A few years ago Six Flags used to manage both Frontier City and White Water Bay. But they did absolutely nothing to improve the parks. When they sold the parks, nothing happened and now Six Flags is managing the parks again and probably do nothing to improve the parks except change the name from White Water Bay to Hurricane Harbor.
mjt19741 Just went to fright fest. It has indeed gone downhill.
mjt19741 people shouldn’t expect much. They are doing there jobs, managing there parks. Nothing more nothing less. Besides they have added at least 2-3 new rides(replaced older ones) and have expanded park season in to winter(not sure if theyll do it again next winter). On top of that they actually give you Six Flags access if you buy a Season pass. Not bad imo.
My dad and his friend were the people that painted all of those signs a long time ago
Pretty small park but it’s all we have here in Oklahoma lol. I’ve been going ever since I can remember but hopefully six flags makes some improvements to the park. Maybe a few more rides
hopefully
Eric Harrison yeah a new coaster
In '61 it was impressive to me as a 7 year old. I lived in Duncan. They had a street gun fight, which was cool.
I'm going to Frontier City tomorrow on my birthday! I'm so hyped!
Nice park, it looks like there's a nice atmosphere!
Yeah its pretty chill most of the time. As long as there isnt a concert or anything lines don’t usually take more than 10-15min and thats on the long side. It usually isnt to crowded and most of the rides are pretty reliable as far as them being open.
The barn in the middle of the park, has a night coaster. The ride was shutdown 20 years ago because of braking failures. You can see part of the track from the Ferris wheels.
You referencing the nightmare ? It’s been shut down 20 freaking years ? Good Lawd that was my favorite ride. Pitch black. See light through cracks in building smh. So the coaster & building are still there ? Just not operational ?
You know Frontier City needs? Two things!
1: We need an RMC at Frontier City. I believe a good name for it would be "The Oklahoma City Hellcat", and it could be themed after the Dodge Charger. Basically, the ride is like any RMC, with a height of 185 feet, and 175 foot drop at between 75 to 85 degrees. Also, I see the ride have several overbanked turns and two inversions. Wildcat maybe a classic, but a roller coaster themed after a legendary muscle car like the Dodge Charge Hellcat? Frontier City would pull some big numbers with it. And speaking the word "BIG"...
2: With Six Flags taking over Frontier City, it's no secret. We need a hypercoaster, and I have just the ride in mind. "F-5 Tornado Warning" (Manufacturer: B&M) The ride would stand at a massive 230 feet, with a terrifying 240 foot drop into an underground tunnel, hitting the first of many banked turns. Along with several air-time hills, all leading to a vicious corkscrew inversion heading towards the first mid-course break run. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say mid-course break run? I meant to say the second lift hill standing 190 feet tall, then a 180 foot drop which turns into a stomach bursting double helix into a loop, followed by banked turns. After it's over, you'll feel like you just got thrown around in a violent tornado.
TBONE2004 you should run six flags😂
@@projectawesome5675 I'm just a guy who wants Frontier City to be better. I haven't been there since I was 13, and I'm dying to go back.
TBONE2004 i know that's why i said you should run six flags i live in oklahoma and i love frontier even though i haven't actually been since i was a baby but i want to go again and if they got another coaster i would definatlely go
Instead of the second lift Hill add a launch
The theming wouldnt work but the name isnt bad.
Howdy from Houston! Interesting video. Been through OKC as a child but never actually stopped to do anything. Been to SFoT though. I miss Astroworld a lot, part of Houston died with it.
Awesome looking local park, although Gatorade tent at the beginning ruined the ambience a bit.
With Six Flags taking over, get used to it.
Family goes every year well for the past 7 or so. Just went this past weekend. Had a great time as always
Disappointed in price of parking.
I think my old home park is why there's no new rotor rides anymore, a girl got her foot crushed at Six Flags Great America and they took all of them out at the Six Flags parks, to my knowledge.
Needs more land for more Roller Coasters and other rides. I don't think there is anymore land they can get; might all be residential around the park.
I think they have like 30 more acres around them
Wish I was there when you visited the park. It's my home park. I could of shared with you some interesting history of the park. Also I go frequently enough could of introduced you to some of the management in the park. They are awesome and love enthusiasts. Alot of them are enthusiasts themselves. i'm sure you could of got a ride on Wild Kitty. Also you should of walked down the Renegade Rapids Queue line it's nicely themed to a Wild Outlaws campsite. I like the music they play in the queue nice relaxing music. The raft ride gets faster when you enter the tunnel to you get to the end and has a nice drop on the course everyone gets drenched. Also the Log ride is well themed with music in it's long tunnel.
Prepare for....advertisement
I think this park is gonna benefit pretty we'll from six flags, coaster wise they'll most likely get a 4d Free Fly, but I think they can get some pretty cool flat rides
Dalton Wike Reverse effect.
It killed the park
Soaring Eagle was built in 2018
2:13 in 2015 when they opened Brain Drain, for the media day/opening day, they sent out flyers and it said in bold at the top "this ain't a coaster event!"
Though not technically a “coaster” they do have a log flume ride that’s a lot like the ones at SFOT. It has a nice little drop at the end.
My home park
Despite the fact that Wonder Woman isn't too far, this park would be the ideal candidate for an RMC Raptor.
I know the Viper trains from AstroWorld are now on the Mindbender at SFOG
Canobie Lake Park in New Hampshire has a Rotor as well ;)
RIP $3.99 booze refills once six flags steps in 🙉 I live in Austin and I still haven't made it to check out frontier city yet maybe one day it looks like a neat little park.
I was at the park this year and they stopped the cheap beer refills sometime last season, but they had a sign explaining how they couldn’t do it anymore because the city passed laws about not allowing alcohol discounts or something
Frontier City was the first park owned by Premier Parks. They later went on to buy Geauga Lake, Darien Lake, Elitch Gardens, and then the entire Six Flags company.
...then divested all the former Premier Parks before inevitably going bankrupt lol.
Jeff P really i didn't know that
Exactly. The offices south of Silver Bullet used to be Six Flags HQ for some time after Premier Parks acquired Six Flags and adopted their name.
It is kind of a fun park, but it’s kinda dull honestly, has its perks. It’s been been about 5 years since I’ve been, and nothing has changed there lol nothing new in this vid, I even remember when the steel lasso got finished, but hey thanks for visiting my Podunk states amusement park
I want to take my kids here. We live about 2 hours away.
I just got back from this yesterday
I'm going this Sunday it will be my second time going 😊
Cierra Sears yes very much!
Back when I was nine, I believe Silver Bullet was orange.
I don't think the Silver Buller was ever orange, but there used to be an orange roller coaster that was moved inside and became the Nightmare.
that ride at 7:35 made me super sick as a kid
i know that ride it called power surge made by zamperra
the viper at astroworld was the best, it was from st louis called the jet screamer
My first coaster was Viper. 1992.
This place looks like it could use better or more updated rollercoasters, no wonder the place looks empty.
The coasters arent bad, its just a pretty small park. It could use a new one though as I’m pretty sure steel lasso is the newest by far.
Tends to happen on a weekday morning lol
I sill Missed AstroWorld everyday.....
The make the train go a different way, when I was there once there was 16 adults on the train and the poor little train couldn’t make it up the hill, thus they go the other direction now
Canobie Lake Park has a rotor and I have been on it as it is my h0me park
Isn’t Steel Lasso a mix between Chance rides and Vekoma?
CoasterChaos it’s a vekoma Coaster but Chance was contracted by vekoma to manufacture the coaster here in The US
Some food talk would have added to the video....not so much you eating but just mentioning what they have around the park.....still great though.
They have variations of different foods around the park. Right when you walk into the park, you will run into a building called "Fort Frontier." This building has a large menu which now includes pizza, bacon burgers, salads, a grilled chicken sandwich, and chicken strips. There are snack stands around the park that has pretzels, nachos, adult beverages, Pepsi products, jumbo cookies, and dip-n-dots. The Saddlerock Cafe, located at the front of the park right in front of the dark ride, has BBQ sandwiches, Turkey Legs, and chicken tenders. Five Feather's Fries, also located at the front of the park, has corn dogs on the menu and offers a mixture of different combinations of waffles fries (chili cheese, ranch and bacon, etc.). Also right when you enter the park is Sweet Caroline's. Here you can get your sweet treats such as funnel cakes, and hand dipped ice cream. Also right across from there is the candy store! Best of the West Cafe is located down by the Wildcat. This dining facility offers burgers and chicken strips. The Two Johns Saloon, located on Main Street near the entrance to the kiddie land, offers hotdogs, nachos, pretzels, adult beverages, and Pepsi products! You can also stop in there and catch a magic show during the day! In the waterpark, there is a place where you can get mini corndogs, fries, chicken strips, and drinks. I hope this helps! I also have the meal plan that the park offers for $59.99. The meal plan allows you to get 1 meal (selected items located on the menu with an orange M next to it) per visit.
Silver Bullet i think is also a clone of Scorpion at Busch Gardens Tampa
No. The Scorpion is a lot smaller. It is a Schwazkopf Silver Arrow model while Silver Bullet is a Looping Star model.
oh okay I just know its similar with that one loop lol
Silver Bullet is the actual prototype Looping Star it was the first one built and the only one that has the extra pop of air. Frontier City is its 3rd home it came from the State Fair of Texas in 1983. Before the Texas State Fair it's first home was at Jolly Roger Park in Ocean City Maryland.
@@eliasmertens9313 I like to think of Silver Bullet as the baby brother of Shock Wave at SFOT, since they both come from the same manufacturer.
@@KicknKvnMotto Actually it was a traveling German fairground coaster from 1978 on, then went to Texas, Jolly Roger (in this order), and in 1986 it ame to Frontier City. ;-)
CREDITS BOIIIIIS
Be glad you didn't ride the diamond back... It hurts your chest for an hour, knocks the wind out of you, and gives you whiplash.
lisa Denwalt thanks for the warning, I’m going to Frontier City for the first time for a school thing and didn’t know
In all fairness it may based off size so if your at a decent-size you should be okay but I still don't recommend it
lisa Denwalt ok I’m more of a heavier set person I’m 14 and like 5’8
Well I was that 15 and I'm not like fit so it'll still hurt
I’ve been riding the diamond back since I was little. It’s amazing
Cmon now bra 😂🤦♂️ You’re not doing anything but lending into stereotypes about Oklahoma with the “it’s Oklahoma. This is about what you’d expect” with the Native American lame merch & wooden guns. You’re literally at a place* called Frontier City. THAT, is what ya expect at a place called frontier city. For Oklahoma ? Go down to Paseo. Arts district. Hit up Norman on a gameday. Or try the nachos at the Bricktown Brewery, followed by walking over to a Thunder NBA game against the Lakers (ex). Or the riverwalk in Tulsa during arts & crafts months. That* is what Oklahoma has turned into. All you’re doing is perpetuating a false narrative that we still ride buggies pulled by horses whilest dodging arrows shot from Indians in Oklahoma. And I get it. Hollywood & songs do the exact same.
And I’m not meaning to lambast you, great review. But cmon now son 😂
Where’s the Nightmare everyone ? Indoor orange coaster ? It close ?
Or the haunted indoor ride ? Man. Talk about bringing back memories. Have the parents drop off you & your boys… walk past chicks in your school who are hot. Try to time running into them at rides all day long 😂. I wanna go back *eddie Money*
Nightmare is closed
