Rising from the shore of Galveston Harbor the Boardwalk Bullet is the newest
creation from the twisted geniuses over at the Gravity Group.
It was funny because we got out of the car and I was all slack-jawed in
awe of this twisted coaster and totally failed to notice one of its cars
right next to me until Kevin and Greg called my attention to it. Thank
god there were no cars driving by or I'd probably have gotten ran over while
gawking at the coaster.
The Boardwalk Bullet takes up only about an acre of real estate and all
of it is shoe horned in there including squeezing over Kemah's trash dump.
Would this house not be the ultimate bed and breakfast for coaster enthusiasts?
I know I'd love to have a coaster like the Bullet hovering over my backyard
but evidently the owners don't care for it as they were on Fox News earlier
this year complaining. I guess the Boardwalk offered to buy them out
but they refused so the coaster was built right up to two sides of their
property. Still I'm glad that the Boardwalk and Gravity Group had
such little space to work with as it forced them to get really creative
and make one unique coaster.
