Top Ten signs of the modern day at SDC

10. Flooded Mine will have a new recreational facility for the inmates. You'll see convicts running on treadmills in waist deep water and arms going under and resurfacing benchpressing weights.

9.  Three words. Dugan's....Sharper....Image! (Will someone now go to Junior's house and give him oxygen?!)

8. New TV commerical with three baggy dressed teenagers saying "Ahhh yeah! Silver Dollar City! We're all up in dat'!

7. SDC Stagecoach Stereo Store. Now you can have YOUR stagecoach thumpin and bumpin so hard, the trim will rattle right off the wagon!

6. The park adopts California lingo. Starts referring to itself as "The SDC"

4. FITH has same name, but is now themed in Libya, Egypt, Iran, and Israel violence
