There was the superslide at the fairgrounds and something in the back of my memory remembers the one at SCity but then maybe not. If it wasn't where I-S remebers could it have been behind SCity or over on the east side where those buildings were added later? Another one to ask my little bro.

OK I-S and rhertz - a few dusted off synapses and that sounds about right.
and on the fairgrounds... your great site here has a pix of it. And yeah - the Six flags one too - check. Anyone old and feeble enuff to recall the six flags trees with spiral slides inside (also a burlap sack affair). |

Oh gosh I remember being so nervous climbing up those steps because the slide was so high! I recall getting airborne too. Does the fair still offer a newer/safer version of that slide?

But the recolletion of the spiral slides at six flags blows my mind. I remember but never would have had you not mentioned it. Wasn't that on Skull Island? Anyone remember that big skull? We walked cross a bridge held up with barrels floating on the murky bluegreen (dyed) water... but at night, Skull Island was really lit up and looked really cool! |

Skull Island at night was all lit up in red, white and blue it seems! That is a wonderful memory from long ago!
