I can tell you exactly what the deal is with the Whizzer now. The sign is still in the park, it's in the coaster shop hanging on the wall.

MY LAST RIDE ON TRIPLE PLAY
Before I worked at GA I went to pick up my friend Cory who was a shows tech. I was so sad when I found Triple Play in pieces. My friend Tyler, who is also a shows tech now decided to take one last ride. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v650/aarcuda70sprbird/IMG_1492.jpg http://photos-070.ll.faceboo...
