I recorded it. It was shorter than I thought it would be, but still pretty cool. If i can figure it out, I'd be happy to post it here somehow.

Astroworld forum

Oh man, I just got a look at the Astroworld forum and I am so sad for people in Houston! I want to cry reading all of the memories and pictures that they are sharing and I have never even been to that park! It makes me appreciate SFGAM even more. Imagine learning that SFGAM or PGA was closing foreve...

My pleasure! I'm glad that you are enjoying the pictures. Thanks to you guys also for all the additional information on these pictures that have been around since I was 1 and a half years old :) It's cool to know that the exit path is from The Edge, which I obviously never got to ride. I really wish...

Pics of SFGAM in 1989

Okay, I'm ready to post the pics from 1989. There are some kiddie area ones (I know someone was asking about Bugs Bunny Land, which I think this is) Even if it isn't, I want to share these with you! Enjoy! :D http://img476.imageshack.us/img476/5626/scan0163vi.th.png http://img476.imageshack.us/img47...

Hey all!! I found those pics at my mom's house and I didn't realize she had these ones from 1983 as well (I went to look for the ones from 1989, which I also found and will post next!) I really want to share these pics with you all. I've really enjoyed everything you have all shared so far about the...

I'm so glad I've found a group of people who are as into nostalgia (esp. about Great America!!) as I am. I've always thought that I was born too late (I was born in 1982) and the more I learn about the past (esp. SFGAM's past!) the more I think that. I swear I've tried every internet site looking fo...

I am a huge fan of Great America and I'm always looking for historic info/pictures of the Gurnee park. On to my question: I visited SFGAM fo...
