Great stories ya all!
Junior -- them stories from the late 70s & early 80s sure show how free & open people were back then.
I've told these stories before on here, but i'll re-tell them. My brother & i lied to my wife & told her she wouldnt get too wet on the water boggin ride. It was her 1st time at the park with us. Well, she got soaked. She got so mad that we had to go back to the motel so she could change clothes. Not fun.
And, i had rode the go-karts in Branson the night before & got into a crash & my glasses fell off & got crushed. Went to SDC the next day without my glasses & had a headache all day!
Heading into the park one time, we saw Catfish riding his moped with his overalls & pink long underwear on. That was a sight!
Our last trip in Aug., we was heading down into the cave, & a lady was affraid of heights. She had her eyes closed till we got to the bottom of the entrance tower to the cave.
Rode the log ride one time, & as we pulled back in, a citizen poured a bucket of water on us. It was funny to us, but i can imagine how some people would react.
I was shooting the water guns on Lost River & hit a lady right in the face, not on purpose ofcourse, just lucky. And she says -- " i cant believe he hit me in my new sunglasses!" She was very upset.
