I would like a dive machine David but some of the people think a dive machine is boring, not ot get off topic but i heard on WBBM 780 that some dumbasses took a pic with porky pig (it's was a girl in the costume) and hit her multiple times in the head and got kicked out.

I have never heard of a staff beating up the crap to Porky Pig. Those 2 staff were assholes and they must been eventually getting fired from the park.

I, for one, find it absolutely hilarious that the stock image they use for Great America is absolutely ancient, with Shockwave there and everything.

I like that image it reminds me of a simpler time when things werent so fucked up in the world. When the park actually had looney tunes memoribilia, home wares, leather jackets, real food and good games, wjhen the park was about the family not the almighty dollar.

Dont forget they actually maintained buildings and the grounds and picked up the trash under and opver the fences and painted things that needed it. I hope they have started doing some restorations for the 2011 season.

And when the atmosphere and theming was actually paid attention to.

Housewares? That reminds me. I have a carved wooden jewlery box that I bought at Marriotts Great America for $3.95 back in 1977. It still has the price tag on it and everything.

When I was younger I had a Sand Bottle that I made near the Iron Wolf. But like a kid I uncorked it and now the sand is blowing in the wind somewhere. I also have a Tweety Mug and a looney tunes trivet which barely has anything left on it but to me it doesn't matter afterall i know where i got it and that is what makes it special to me.

Way off topic from ex-employees beating up Porky Pig.

They could have a character safari and turn the whole place into a paintball arena!
