    Was this park in Houston, or in Orange, TX?

    I need to know specifically.

    TIA.

    I need to know the specific location. ie. address.

    Sorry for posting under T Rex account. We were at his place and I had an argument with a buddy in Beaumont.

    I've seen stuff about this being in Orange, TX.

    M'yeah.

    Have you tried that site?

    Not a mention of location....

    I suppose that's part of the charm... :rolleyes:

    Saddest part is that I learned about this crapfest from this site. So much so, that I asked around about it.

    I love nostalgia, and with Peppermint Park and kiddio whatever, I like the fact that we reminisce.

    It, albeit an odd amusement park, was one that was created to please.

    Regardless, it's not in Houston.

    According to recent posts, it's more in Houston than most places you ever lived, Fatty.

    The Orange Show's never moved. It's where its original creator put it all those years ago. This side of Hobby Airport. And the very coolest tourist attraction in this city ever.

    Super Happy Fun Land was a challenger for that title.

    BTW, dude, I posted on here that I tried to make your Strangerer showing. When are you doing another play? I promise I will show. I was not only disappointed by the sell out crowd on the last night. I was also flummoxed. Do another showing. My mom still has connections with MFA. C'mon!

    BTW, here is my operatic enjoy's. Mainly due to my liking Meatloaf... Most don't know all three were written by him. Yet I guarantee anyone who knows Meatloaf can tell that they were, in retrospect...

    It's between U of H and Wayside off 45 South.

    Does anyone know the address of the beer can house?? I heard it was off Memorial but never could find it.

    Ehh, I played enough shows at Super Happy to doubt that. The Orange Show is a completely unique place whereas the old Super Happy was a hodgepodge of knick knacks. However, it's a shame that Brian wasn't able to get permits efficiently and that effectively killed Super Happy on Polk.
