It would be so wrong to visit Six Flags Great America and not visit
the worlds largest bumper car ride; Rue le Dodge.
Rue Le Dodge has a massive floor and you are free to go every direction
in cars that have mass. Mass in a bumper car is a really good thing
because it gives you that much more bump.
Here is where Ragin Cajun used to be. It is now in Maryland at Six
Flags America. Six Flags Great America already has a mouse coaster
with The Dark Knight and Rajin Cajun had no capacity so this is not a huge
loss. I could see some sort of a flat ride on this site in the future
or one of the Super Loop "coasters" that Six Flags is adding to several
of their parks for 2015 eventually occupying that site.
Yes it is not the Big Dipper but the Little Dipper is always fun
to take for a ride when we visit.
Speaking of coasters that are not that big the Sprocket Rocket is always
fun and with a nice new neighbor I can see a bunch of coaster enthusiasts
taking it for a ride to get a closer peek at Goliath.
