^That's good info, Old Guy. I didn't know Noel Green was the only one to play Rube Dugan at the park. The post is dated February 2, 2008, and he mention that Rube Dugan is "back". He played him during the 1999 and 2000 seasons; is the character featured somewhere in the park now? Has anyone seen any representation of Rube Dugan at SDC this season or last? I'm just curious.
I would like the Diving Bell to come back, especially since I've never experienced it myself. We started going to the park three years after it was removed. I really don't see it coming back. Maybe some sort of museum display of artifacts from the ride (for the 50th anniversary) is possible, though. I just don't know where they would put the ride if they brought it back, unless they're thinking of putting something Rube Dugan-related in the new area.
