Farewell to Delaware's Amusement Park

I was never there, but it seemed like a good idea, although a rather large undertaking, and the payback horizon was way too long...

I've never been there, but I never had any desire to go anyway..

We went mini-golfing there before. We tried to go several weeks ago and they were closed, guess I know why now.

It wasn't all that. It's in my backyard and the cost to get in compared to what was there was way outta line, not to mention that if one of the workers kids and friends happened to be there they could do pretty much whatever the hell they wanted to (knocking other kids out of line, having the rides run as long as they wanted no matter who was waiting, being rude to anyone and everyone) and nobody would say shit. My heart's not broken.

Everytime we ride by there my daughter asked if we can go in and I have to keep telling her it is closed. Then she whines about it for like 5 minutes like we never take her anywhere when she has already been to 3 theme parks this summer alone....

*Please tear the rides down ASAP so my kid and I am sure many others will stop asking about it.....

We always talked about taking the kids but we never did. We were over there every weekend for awhile when my daughter cheered for NCCFL, and that was really expensive too. They just didn't seem to have a whole lot to do there, to me it was kind of like a bunch of fair rides that stayed in one place. We're taking the kids to Bush Gardens at the end of August anyway.

I've seen the place on the way back from MD, too bad.

Never heard of it, never been there, never knew about it. So, I guess no big loss?
