What was the name of the guy who came to the Castle who had ridden every rollercoaster on the planet. I can kind of see him, but I may have him confused with John Ziaukas (sp), who was Sheldon Cooper before Jim Parsons was Sheldon Cooper.

And for all these years I thought Lake Compounce was the worst amusement park in the world. And Colonel Clown was the worst clown in the world too.

They really were a perfect match for each other and Channel 30. 🥸

Sir, you are referring to my hometown park & my hometown clown! I shall be defending the honor of Bristol CT in my Sept 9 Substack.

Mike! We live in Morris, just a few dozen miles away from Bristol! I knew there was something about you.

One feature of my article is that even though CT is a small state, whenever someone mentions a town there, you've never heard of it. Morris? Really?

I don’t think I’ll be rushing to book tickets to that Parc (I read it backwards before you said to). What about ‘Crush’s Coaster? This is pretty damn funny, they’re like “This place is shit!” and you’re like “Let’s go!” I admire your commitment to crazy travel ideas.
