In the Cincinnati Ohio Area we had two small amusement parks when I was growing up that my dad would always have his company picnics at, they were called Americana, and Fantasy Farm. These two were the low budget rivals of the main amusement park here, Kings Island. Americana and Fantasy Farm had some really neat little haunted houses and a cool go kart track as well.
There are a dozen rides from Kings Island (and for those who've ever seen episodes f the Brady Bunch, yes this is the amusement park they came to in that vacation episode!).
My kids go to the park now and I tell them about all the neat rides that aren't there anymore that they would have loved, like the Old Time Taxi's where you could drive around a track, or the old corvettes they had too where you could drive.......
My absolute favorite ride there as a kids was called the Floor Dropout.....where you'd be stuck against the wall as it spun and the floor would drop down........
Sometimes I wish there was enough money to rebuild these old nostalgic places.....
