This week, the show goes back to its roots by doing a show live from the midways of an amusement park!
Using some amazing new technology, Mike joins the show from Knoebels Amusement Resort in Elysburg, PA!
Mike and EB will discuss what makes the park unique, how the roller coasters are one-of-a kind and how the food is hard to beat.
They'll also talk about the saga of The Flying Turns roller coaster and if there is any word on when this highly anticipated roller coaster will open.
It's all this week on CoasterRadio.com!

Weekend Theater - Double Kuka Robo Arm! Whoa!
By now, you've probably seen the excellent "Double Rainbow" video. It's simply a man, so turned on by nature, that he shouts to the heavens in excitement.
It's become an internet hit and has even inspired catchy remixes!
I was doing some searching on YouTube and came across a similar video that might interest theme park fans.
This guy seems to feel the same way about Kuka Robo Arms as the original guy feels about rainbows.

The David Arquette Project - Underwater Arquette!
I'm not sure I have words for the most recent entry into our "Arquette Arithmetic" contest.
Andrew recently bought a camera that can shoot photos underwater. He took it, along with a photo-shopped version of our David Arquette inspired artwork and came up with this gem.
So far, it's the most unique photo we have received. It might have just raised the bar in terms of creativity!
Nice job Andrew!!!

The David Arquette Project - Will at Lake Compounce
I've said before that the "Arquette Arithmetic" image is of such fine quality, that it should be hanging in a museum somewhere.
I think that some people want to keep their copy of the artwork in such prinstine condition, that they would rather not bring it into the park with them.
This might be the case with Will, who provided this entry into our contest with a photo taken in the parking lot of Lake Compounce.
He does get points for adding some special artwork from the park! Well done!
Will also sent along this photo, taken in front of the mighty "Top Thrill Dragster." He wanted to remind all CoasterRadio.com listeners to "Respect the Thumb!"
