Playland Roller Coaster Was Scarey

01/25/03 - posted by Harry

The piano man said that he was frightened by Laughing Sal but for me it was the Playland Roller coaster.

If you really want to know what was scarey, you should have taken that Roller Coaster Ride at Playland. I took it when I was about 6 years old and never again. Every time you got to a curve which was like a sharp 90 degree turn at like 20 miles per hour, you felt for sure that you and your car were going to go shooting right off. No thank you. I don't want to do anything in the air. Umm hmm. My feet are going to stay glued to the ground.
