    This was the last time I went to Wildwood with my dad. He died Christmas 1991. Reminds me of my home videos!

    Your shot a lot of the common stuff on Morey’s that is still there but some rides are gone like Condor, Schlittenfahrt. Also the former Hunt’s Pier was Conko’s Party Pier that year. I think the Kamikaze coaster in the back that was built in 1989 was either closed or removed. The four guys that bought the pier from Bud Hunt in Feb 1986 declared bankruptcy after 1990 and sold the pier. It was closed in 1992, was Ocean Pier in 1993-1994, Atlantic Pier 1995 with half the pier blocked off with a wall, then in 1996 the Catanoso’s who got the pier 1995 reopened the entire pier as Dinosaur Beach with the Nugget, Log Flume, and Rapids reopened with a dinosaur theme. Dino Beach closed end of 1998 season and was eventually sold to the Morey’s. Castle Dracula was running in 1991 and there are two vids one of the castle and one of the dungeon.

    Thank you so much for sharing! I was 16, going on 17 in the summer of 1991 and this brought back a whole lot of memories. Went for a week in July/August. Loved going on all those rides. At 2:37 the Sea Serpent was making me sick just looking at it again!

    When morey closed hunts pier we stopped going to wildwood! We were even thinking on retirement near their, but he crapped up everything and now it's waterparks and go carts.. no! Morey never liked hunts pier, he saw it as competition, he always said oh no I really liked that pier it was to far gone to save! Then why the hell did you buy it? You kept nothing!
