Event Details
Paramount's Great America invited coaster enthusiasts to help celebrate 118 years of roller coaster history with an event called Coaster Palooza. The event began with a 30 minute Exclusive Ride Time on Psyco Mouse followed by a one hour ERT session on Stealth the world's first flying roller coaster. Special discounts on souvenirs and a buffet lunch with all you can drink soda and beer. The highlight of the day was a special behind the scenes tour of the park. We began with a tour of the mechanics area where they work on roller coaster cars known as the Coaster Shop. We also took a walk over to the area where the park stores it's old rides and other things and we were able to get up close to Stealth as the photos show below. What a great view from the other side of the ride. We all had a great time and thanks to Paramount's Great America for inviting us to the event.
