Kennywood Park, West Mifflin, PA

The theming for this mouse coaster is that you are a rat in an old power plant and they are sending the exterminator in to get you.

The Exterminator is a standard spinning mouse coaster but Kennywood added theming to make it way more fun that it should be.

The Black Widow at Kennywood Park, West Mifflin, PA

A new addition to Kennywood since my last visit eleven years ago is The Black Widow.  I love this cool sign and entrance for the ride.

The Black Widow is similar to the Giant Frisbee type rides like MaxAir at Cedar Point but was made by Zamperla instead of Huss.

The ride is basically a giant pendulum where you sit on the bottom and face outwards while swinging and rotating.  Black Widow is really fun and with all of the breeze created by swinging back and forth at sixty-eight miles per hour can really cool you down on a hot summer day.
