I never did get to ride the Big Bad Wolf
I want to now, but I'm afraid of rollercoasters - but I feel like I would have given that one at least one chance
oh well :'( 5/24/2015 2:19:58 AM |

If I could ride roller coasters anymore, I would definitely go ride that bitch over and over.
One year on Carolina Mills day it rained for a few hours in the morning, but then quit and didn't rain again. When we got there it was literally empty, yet all the rides were running. I road this one at least 10 times back to back and they didn't even stop the ride going through the station 5/24/2015 2:21:51 PM |

Dang. That sucks. My favorite wooden coaster (not that I've ridden all that many, but...)

I'll miss it. Grew up going to Carowinds two or three times a week in the summers. I remember I just about knocked out my teeth on TR backwards doing something stupid.5/25/2015 11:20:46 AM |

^^I'd "stand" on my tip toes when they were lowering the bars so that when the ride started, i had a good 6"-12" of space between the bottom of the bar and my knees. Almost flew out and died a few times 5/25/2015 11:41:19 AM |

i was more of a King's Dominion kid, but I can empathize with those folks who grew up riding this ride at Carowinds... would be like if they tore down Rebel Yell or The Grizzly at KD.

It was a great roller coaster.
However the cyclone in Coney Island is the best wooden coaster imo. 8/16/2015 2:22:29 AM |

If by 50 times you mean 50 million times. 8/16/2015 11:34:55 AM |

50 million times may be accurate.
Did this commercial get a lot of airplay in the Raleigh area? One of my friends from Apex claims to have never seen it and I thought maybe they only advertised in the western part of the state.] 8/17/2015 10:41:19 AM |

I grew up in greensboro, and never saw that commercial.
looks very much like a low budget regional commercial.
