Six Flags Great America, Gurnee, Illinois

The Rue Le Dodge bumper cars at Six Flags Great America has the worlds largest bumper car floor and with it being a giant free for all with cars that have mass you will get slammed around in a very good way on it.

While we were walking around Six Flags Great America I noticed this and was intrigued.

We went back and found that Six Flags had made a little area back at the dead end behind the Sky Trek Tower for parents, children or whoever needs to get away from the sensory overload that is an amusement park for a little break.  I really like the idea of parks having a little corner where people can just go to sit down and relax.  My only thoughts here is they need to add some benches, rocking chairs and a little shade so those who need a quiet break can do so comfortablly.

A visit to Six Flags Great America without a ride on The Whizzer is just wrong.  As someone who has been in love with this ride since I first stepped down into the comfortable train sometime around 1980 I need as many rides on it that I can get whenever I visit.

As someone in his mid-40's I am completely clueless as to what "dabbing" is but it embarrassed Allison and Bond so Emily and I spent our day dabbing around them.  We dabbed in the midway, we dabbed in the queue (as seen here) and we dabbed for the one ride photos making my son and niece embarrassed to be seen in public with us.  Win!
