      Wow! I would have loved to have seen the park back then.

      Also cool to see the IAAPA coaster find a home...

    Im from this area. I can remember getting scared as a kid when they had the gunfight at the fort and the "indians" ran on the train through the aisles. Looks like that isnt in the show any longer.

    • @ParkRovers
      @ParkRovers  Před rokem +1

      Yeah, the “Indians” were retired in 2020, supposedly due to lack of staff.
      The show now seems to be updated for every season. I like that some lines are improvised, so every show is slightly different. I do miss the “hot sauce bandits” from the 2022 season. 😂

      @@ParkRovers I'm surprised they were around that long. I figured they were removed due to the political climate we are in, which I could see if someone might take offense with how the natives were portrayed in those shows, especially back when I was a kid in the 80s. It is all for fun. But in reality the poor natives got wiped out. It was just a different time. Thanks for your videos. I really enjoy them. Best wishes.

      Thanks so much! I appreciate the support - we just run this channel for fun 😁
      Yeah, Tweetsie needed to modernize the show - even though it was nostalgic for so many people. “Staffing” is the official reason, but I think you’re right.

      @ParkRovers  Před 3 měsíci

      I assume you're referring to Tweetsie's claim as North Carolina's first theme park. There were certainly many electric parks and amusement parks before Tweetsie, but my understanding is that all of the other "theme" parks opened in the '60s or later. I've been wrong before though 😆 -Andrew

      @@ParkRovers You're quite right! My brain backfired. There is a huge difference between "Theme" and "Amusement" Lakeside Park in Charlotte lacked theming and was purely an amusement park.
