    It is still there, one of my favorites in the park. I miss SFOT a lot, I haven't been there since I moved out of Dallas 4 years ago

    I can't believe this existed. I was there with the band and part of the second group that rode it.

    All those drivers on the turnpike are slowing down to watch them do the double loop.

    The shockwave is honestly so wholesome. It was my first big ride and the first to take me upside down. To think that even tomorrow this would happen but instead of the first ride, it’s the last.

    The hysteria over an inanimate object like it’s Elvis Presley LOL. In all seriousness, these kind of rides were a big deal at the time.

      Schwartzkopf? (I think I spelled that correctly.) Edit: There's no t, so it's Schwarzkopf.

    Final brake was too strong, seen a woman smash her face in 04. Hard to imagine it was always like that but there it is.
