Do they still have the octopus? I enjoy watching that one more than riding it. I call it 'The Puke Slinger'

my first answer would have been removed so I went ahead and removed it. I dont' ride no more....it makes me queasy. I haven't got on anything but the momma since I went to that world of fun place with some kids...and they made me get on something called a mamba...I haven't been the same since that day.

I'll stick to the rides that stay put year round at WOF.
(Not to mention those carnival prices have gone up, KC is more safe and not much more $$$.)

The ride home.

The Toilet Paper Roll - the over the top part; under is intolerable. This ride is usually needed 15 minutes after buying anything deep fried on a stick.

Hooking school to meet up with the guy that puts up and takes down the Octopuss.
