This should never happen and the amusement park has already issued an apology. A Missouri woman was just kicked off of a roller coaster and the reason is bizarre.
The world cannot have enough roller coasters. That's a proven fact (in my opinion). Good news then as Six Flags St. Louis has announced there's a new racer-themed coaster that will be opening in the park this year.
A true coaster legend will be no more after the 2023 tourist season. A Missouri park announced today that one of their rides which has been going strong for more than 50 years will be retired later this year.
If you like the idea of zooming down a mountain, you can now do it for real in Grafton, Illinois as there's a new mountain coaster and it's officially ready for prime time.
It's been more than 27 years since this tragic event happened and I still haven't heard an explanation of how a Missouri girl fell off of a roller coaster yet no one seemed to notice. It's a mystery that remains unsolved today.
I have ridden the Ninja rollercoaster at Six Flags in St. Louis probably a zillion times in my life and that's only a slight exaggeration. Now, you can ride it whether you're at Six Flags or not if you have a decent computer thanks to a genius that created it in a video game.
As a self-professed roller coaster nerd and aficionado, I am proud to share some video moments that give you an idea what it's like to ride the appropriately-named "Wildfire" coaster at Missouri's Silver Dollar City.
I am a veteran of all the coasters at Six Flags in St. Louis. If you want to know anything about any of the rides there, I can help you out. However, I have never been to Six Flags Great America in Illinois. Thanks to a new video share, we can all see what it's like to ride the coasters there (and non-coasters, too).
When I hear roller coasters at Six Flags discussed, The Screamin' Eagle is the first one that gets mentioned and for good reason. However, I would argue that one of the most underrated thrill rides the park has ever had was The Jet Scream.
I used to go to Six Flags in St. Louis practically every year growing up in the 1970's and 80's and cannot remember this coaster at all. It's a coaster that opened at Six Flags in St. Louis and only lasted a year because of a tragedy.
