I'm not saying the whole park. Just kiddieland there. They have the Peanuts characters go around that area of the park at Cedar Point, sort of like Mickey Mouse at Disney. I could see them doing the same thing at Valley Fair.
IE the kid roller coaster at Cedar Point in Ohio is called The Woodstock Express.

I was going to work at camp snoopy too. I didn't want to look like a boy scout.
I read it on startribune.com. I refuse to read any of the over-glamorized TV station articles.

Unfortunately no, they were not open the couple of times I went and visited. Drove by it though, I would have loved to ride Wild Thing. Looks like a good coaster. laugh: if you cant tell, roller coasters are kind of my other hobby/passion besides U2 )
Blue Room said:Oh, my brother lived in two places while they were in Minneapolis. White Bear Lake and then in Woodbury.

That would be considered St Paul They're both on the other side of the river so it's not Minneapolis.

I had already added that right after I posted!
Oh, and Wild Thing is still the biggest coaster at Valley Fair. They did add a new one though 2 years ago (its a shuttle coaster, you launch up a spiral and shoot back down backwards and up another tower on the other end, if that makes sense. ). Wild Thing is still bigger though.

I haven't been on Star Tribune today....
and it was a Beagle Scout NOT boy scout!
TRUE STORY......
One summer day in 1992 I was in my BEAGLE SCOUT uniform driving to work from where I lived in Golden Valley down 169. There was a tarp/tent thingy on the road. I tried to avoid it but there was a lot of traffic so I had to drive over some of it. There was a rope on the tarp. The rope got caught on the bottom of the car. I drove all the way to the MOA from the 169/394 area in a Beagle Scout uniform with a damn tent on the back of my car. When I got out of the car, someone in the parking lot made a comment about how at least I was in the right outfit to have a tent hanging from the back of my car

Another true and completely useless story....people in Minneapolis think Minneapolis/St Paul is one gigantic city and the river is just the river. People in St Paul consider Minneapolis and St Paul two very separate cities and it's a huge ordeal if they have to cross the river to go into Minneapolis.
Kind of like Meg when people complain about having to drive over 2 bridges in RI to get to places. Only this is free. My mom's whole side of the family is from St Paul and it just takes everything they have to cross that damn river to come over for a visit.

I like how he just name-dropped his band when he was "interviewing" - and the guy had never heard of "O town"
