The Best Yard Sale Ever!

I was checking out Holiday World's excellent HoliBlog today and I noticed that they are having a yard sale!

Actually, on Saturday they are having a "surplus auction" where they are going to be offering dozens of used items to the highest bidder.

Most of the items are industrial... things like stainless steel sinks and cash registers.

But there are a few interesting items that a theme park fan might be interested in.

For instance, how would you like to own some surplus decorations from the station of "The Voyage?"

Or, maybe you'd like to have a bumper boat in your backyard?

Perhaps you once played in the Kid's Castle and you'd like to have a piece of it at your own home?

Anyway, it seems like a fun opportunity to own a former piece of the park.

Over the years, I've seen different online opportunities where parks were selling roller coaster trains, attraction vehicles, Skee Ball machines or even gigantic attraction signs.

Actually, this Disney Surplus site has many items like that. Who wouldn't want an original Horizons Attraction Vehicle!

Do you own any theme park surplus items? If not, what would you like to buy and have at your home?

EB On The Job At Holiday World

As many of you know, our own EB packed up his family and moved to Indiana a few weeks ago.

Being the excellent TV Producer he is, he immediately found a job.  And where did his first assignment take him?

HOLIDAY WORLD!

Paula over at the HoliBlog posted about his day at the park.

From what I've heard, EB walked the track of The Voyage and even got to interview several of the staff members.

And EB reports that Paula remembered him from our 2006 Podcast at Holiday World!

EB always makes a good impression!

CoasterRadio.com Rocks the HoliBlog!

One of the best places we ever visited during the reign of the CoasterRadio.com podcast was Holiday World and Splashin' Safari.

It was so great, it even brought a smile to EB's face.

Today, the relaunch of CoasterRadio.com got a nice mention in the HoliBlog with a link to our review of The Voyage.

There's only been one time that I've traveled over 300 miles to visit a theme park that didn't have the name DISNEY in it. That trip was to Santa Claus, Indiana to visit Holiday World.

It was totally worth it.
