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

Matthew looks a little stressed. Maybe he just got off The Puke Slinger.

The one that doesn't fly apart while I'm riding on it. Gotta be careful of those carnies.

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 $$$.)
