Dinosaurs Alive has a 6 year contract with every CF park, so Carowinds’ will likely close at the end of next season.

hmmm. DA closes at the end of 2019. New major attraction open in that spot March of 2021. Sounds good to me.

Looks like a bumper car caught on fire at Dodgems today. Short circuit probably. Video going around of them using the fire extinguisher to get it out

Work at Dale Jarrett Ford. Selling cars just like cedar fair is selling rides

He was there and it made it impossible to navigate through the park with the amount of people surrounding him.

Do you know when he was there? I was going to visit the park today (errr yesterday) around noon, but ended up not going.

Ugh. So depressing that people had nothing better to do at an amusement park than horde around some random douchebag on a freaking electric scooter all day... but whatever. It is what it is.

At least it'll bring some (hopefully) positive publicity to the park.

Honestly knowing that he visited makes me want to never go to the park again. Lol I’m throwing my pass in the trash :lol:

Pretty sure he was vlogging, so his 15 million subscribers are about to find out what a great park we have.
