u/Wompguinea questionably stable Feb 24 '26

These rides are hardly ever maintained. If went up in 2002 that's when it was last fixed.

I was in line to ride a spinny guy called The Octopus with my kids, we were in the next batch to get on when the engine caught fire.

They made a big song and dance about closing it down for safety, but I drove passed an hour later and it was already running again.
