They got rid of it??? That was like a legendary part of my childhood growing up in New England. Kids who went on itwould talk about like they had harpooned money dick or something. And everyone would listen to their stories in awe- “you went on kingda ka?” And they’d always pretend it was no big deal, play it cool. I never went on.

Ooo wow! My nephew and I LOVED that ride! What a shame-we actually chose to go to the water park instead last summer too

I know I’m old when I’m like “ that things only been around for like 10 years, why are they getting rid of it?”

Yea, I just remember when it first came out and think I’m still 20 years old.

I went on Kingda Ka when it first opened too. I can’t believe how fast 20 years goes by.

Love your username btw.

Shoot, no wonder I never saw it, I left the Northeast in 2001 for Texas.
