Imagine putting on a coat and tie to go to an amusement park?

Wow. Thanks tons for the find Swampgirl.

Never seen that chute ride, but I've seen some jaw-dropping crazy rides they've had there in the past. I wish we weren't so litigious and wussified now, or we'd see some real creativity like they had back then. Nothing but strapped in coasters and ferris wheels from here on out I guess.

Cow rides were funny.

Cow rides are fun!

"10s" may need clarification soon. Vids are getting old.

Aww. I wanted to see Coney Island of "the 1903 and 1904" but this is *dead.
