    Yeah, it was located where Splash Town is. I remember going when I was 5 or 6 years old (it was only open 2 years before it went under). I don't remember it that much, but I remember vividly this tunnel you'd go through and stand against the wall. It would flash and leave your shadow on the wall.

    People over 40 probably shouldn't get belligerently drunk and post on social media/sports websites either.

    They had that at Astroworld - after they closed the Alpine Sleigh Ride they reopened the mountain as a kids play area. You walked through the tunnel in the mountain and it left your shadow on the wall after the light flashed.

    This had a far better chance of being built than that train that was supposed to run between Dallas and Houston.

    Anyone know if Typhoon Texas would be any fun for an adult couple for a day? Daughter will be in daycare and the wife and I want to do something more fun than going to a movie or bowling.

    I knew who you were! All you had to do was tell me that you were from the old days. Knew instantly.

    Never thought I'd see the day when RM95 would be dropping maturity cracks. I'm getting old. :confused:

    I always get so excited when this thread is bumped. Mostly for the ima_drummer posts and snark. What a treasure.

    I'm only going if the rides are designed by drunken high-school dropout rednecks.
