Now that I've offended a few about my comments towards private parks, I was wondering if anyone here had ever been to BobLo Island in Amhertsburgh, Ontario? It's been closed since 1994, and though it didn't have Millenium Force, Goliath or even Son of Beast, there coasters were alright, and it was a nice park with no big line ups. If anyone has been there, I'd like to hear what you had to say.
It's odd that I stumble upon this web site tonight, for today I had just photographed the dillapated old building that once was the Boblo ticket counter in Amhestberg. I remember standing, and standing, and then standing some more, waitin

ah yes you are referring to the 1001 Nachts ride (it had a diff. theme there but i forgot what it was called). i used to go there all the time when i was young. in fact i still have that little kaleidoscope thingy where u look into a hole and it has your
My family used to go there every year when I was a kid. It was a great place. I remember that I always had a great time there. The boat ride back from the island to Detroit was probably the best. There would be music and dancing the whole trip back.
