Shane's Amusement Attic

[montezooma"Can I get clamshells out of this ATM?"]

Read through most of this thread for countless hours last night and continued this morning. Enjoyed it so much I had to get an account to tell you! Hope Shane's Amusement Attic never ends!

Thanks so much. This thread has been going on for several years and has hundreds of thousands of views. I never thought that it would amount to this.

With Season 4 of Cowabunga Bay winding down I am anxious to get more stuff posted shortly. Thanks again everyone who comments and views this thread and makes it one of TPR’s top ten threads!!!!

Someone sent me this great bit of Amusement history. I bet you didn’t know before I ventured into the water park biz I dabbled in roller coaster design.

[MooseWhy do I still have a donkey title???]

I had no idea you had designed a coaster! Very cool.

[Nrthwndbitchbikerbearhousewife]

Very cool, Shane.

Um, could the design be still used,
to get one built, in my back yard?

Just wishin'.

[Guy T. KoeppNow with Extra Retarded Flavor]

Nice Shane!

[coaster-crazyI'm a know-it-all about donkeys!]

A friend of mine who retired from the industry a few years back gave me BOATLOADS of stuff similar to what you are posting...

...including some Huish stuff, like you have posted above! I was wondering if they were YOU! I'll have to scan those in...

I have finally gotten around to finishing the 1979 IAAPA Guide & Manual update. You might have to go back a couple of pages to get the full 111 pictures of this book. Back in the day if you needed a new park, midway game, popcorn or even a camera you couldn't go to the internet you had to get out the Guide and find what you needed. It was sort of the Amusement Industry Bible but without Jesus.

So,in conclusion:

[adamico2What would donkeys be like on the moon?]

It's so sad to think that Kodak's basically dead.

[jzooleI know more about donkeys than women!]

^That makes me really sad too

Does anyone know if that Intamin Dolphin Tower thing ever got built anywhere? It looks kind of Googie! I love it.

Also, am I confused or was that a small portable version of the Schwarzkopf Shuttle Loop? Was THAT ever in existence??

[Geauga DogThe only thing better than a naked woman is a naked donkey!]

When did Intamin start representing Schwarzkopf or were they always the ride broker for him?
