I worked there that summer. Been looking for myself in the video! 😆

I went to Kings Dominion in late July 1998, and Volcano had not yet opened up. The Days of Thunder simulator was rethemed to a James Bond simulator.

The original plans for “Wayne’s World” at PKD included a performance area with a stage on the side closest to the Grizzly. The Hurler was supposed to have a tunnel which ran behind the stage.

Now I know what my parents are talking about when they took my brother as a child. I was born in 00 and never understood what they saw when they took my brother 😂

Ahh thank you for this video! So cool to see! I was born in ‘95 so I didn’t really get to experience this 😂 Still missing Volcano till this day 💔 Love Anaconda’s original color scheme!

12:04 It took 25 years for McDonald's to match $5.59 Kings Dominion's prices for a burger in 1998. Thanks inflation.
