Probably ridden this 15 times growing up. Only now at 44 years old am I realizing I was riding a piece of history.

This may be the most unique carousel I’ve ever ridden and, for that reason, is my favorite carousel!

Everytime I go to Six Flags Great Adventure, I always go on this carousel 🎠. I have a photo of going on this ride from 1986, and I have another photo from last year. Always fun on this ride, even as an adult.

Skip this and ride anything else at the park :D

Yeah, this one is pretty skippable. I rode it once just for the credit.

Such a beautiful ride. Without music the full carousel experience is incomplete. If the organ is not working, they can play recordings.
In the exterminator queue I really want to know who does this broadcast

Caterpillar gone, whip gone, Ferris wheel gone, Jack in the Box gone. Plus so much more. Jumpin Jungle has almost nothing now. They've really gutted the place in the last 15 years. At least they're giving Story Book some attention the last two years. That's good to see.

I went on this ride today, but since I'm fat, I almost couldn't get on it. My leg was having difficulty getting over the horse. I accidentally got on the back seat and couldn't get over the middle part, so I had to bend forward quite a bit to hold on. About half way through I slid to the right a little bit and felt like I was going to get flung off. Not a bad ride. I just struggled to get on and stay on. If I was lighter, I think I would have enjoyed it more.

I all the rides at many theme parks and loved the roller coasters better than the carousel but when I rode the Kings island carousel I did not want to go up and down so I rode the one of stationary horses

Magnificent carousel by PTC! Needs a real band organ for the full authentic carousel experience!
@bewbunyon14 ай бұрын
No pulls attached to a rotating lift thingy above you. Large diameter. No center mounted rotating core with mirrors/murals with music blaring out of it. Unusual carousel! Wish i could've rode it.
