That was fun! Thanks for taking us along with you, weee!

[@felinefatale7773]

Smaller county fairs always have the vintage rides.

[@jess4metoo]

Round Up and Paratrooper? Haven't ridden those in years.

[@coreycoyle9548]

Great Video!! F+L Thanks for Sharing!!!

[@001GenLee]

That's a rare Ferris Wheel, a Nittany Wheel, that's who made it long ago. I recognize it by the maker, Nittany due to the part where your legs go, it's designed a bit different versus your Eli Bridge Wheels' seats.

[@sophiehanssel2017]

+001GenLee I didn't know that wheel existed! That's something new I learned today!

[@elizabethbraze8738]

u should come to wisconsin rapids in the last weekend in june for the blossom festivestal

[@randomized4266]

there should be floor boards in the center of that round up. The people should not be waiting inside the gate for the ride to stop. The zipper should have a sigh on it.Also i was pretty surprised there was no cliff hanger and gravitron

[@001GenLee]

+IOS Gamer you're right, the Zipper sign should be up, but they may have been working on it or it could had been back at their Winter Quarters being repaired or whatever. Also, the mid-section plate is missing on that Zipper, that have the extra arrows scenery on it. Too, it could had been being worked on as well, who knows..

Floorboards?

[@MsJinkerson]

great equipment

[@MrJvenn1]

No bumper cars?

[@nolantom63]

No Himalaya , Scrambler , or Bumper Cars ? That Stinks !

[@howardwilson3821]

wow not even a local dunking booth!

[@trldj8394]

No sizzler? No Himalaya? No Cliff hanger? No ring of fire? No rock o plane? No octopus?

[@001GenLee]

+Scotty Spangler Look straight back into the wooded area at 7:39, there's your Sizzler. It's racked on the trailer. Different carnivals / shows have different rides. Smaller shows will have classic rides or have a mix-up of classics & modern type. Classic would be a Rock o Plane and more modern would be the Cliff Hanger or Freak Out (swinging claw).

[@leonor7239]

Yeah I line in San Angelo very small town yet they have classic rides like this video but it’s mixed with some newer rides

[@leonor7239]

At least they have the zipper and the rock star

[@eefm]

what state?

[@michelleshelhamer1189]

Cottage Grove, Wisconsin

[@aaronsmith550]

Murphy Brothers

[@001GenLee]

+Aaron Smith that Round Up says Calkins on it, but it could had been just bought from another show when the video was taken, and it really is Murphy Bros.

[@mcginnsamm999]

What is the ride called that green and looks like a guitar at 3:52? Thanks!

[@fordranger031]

[@abigailkenz5199]

[@fordranger031]
