what's ya'lls favorite ride? Mines Dungeon Drop. What did they re-name it as when it got moved to St. Louis. I think it's St. Louis either that or Baltimore.

Dungeon Drop will now be "Superman Tower of Power" at Six Flags St. Louis.  I am glad to finally get a freefall tower, but I am VERY SAD that it came at the expense of Astroworld.  I truly have a place in my heart for Astroworld.  It was the first themepark that I ever traveled to when I became interested in rollercoasters.  Plus, it was just a good park.

The new colors on the Dungeon Drop are looking good!

I hadn't been to Astroworld more recently than 88.  But, I liked the Bumper cars until they took it out.  They left the building for the Bumper cars and turned into a restaurant.  I always wondered if they left the metal floor under that building.  When I worked there it was briefly Country Fair and then rethemed to Nottingham Village.  Even still there weren't many rides there.  Mostly games.  I guess that changed when they put Dungeon Drop (among other rides) in.  Dexter Frebish's Electric Roller Ride renamed Excalibur was always a decent ride, though.  Probably not as good as some of the newer coasters, but it had a lot of historical value and was also Astroworld's only mine train ride.

Favorite ride was Dexter Frebish in Country Fair.  I was one of the original crew members on that ride when she was brand new in 1972.
