That's the seventh park I've been to in or around Myrtle Beach that has closed and that's not counting any of the other stand-alone attractions that have come and gone.

Just to put the final nail in the coffin, the 13-acre Skyplex site in Orlando is now on the market, and CBRE is handling the sale, seeking bids that propose new uses for the land, which could include a resort or residential buildings. Skyplex Ownership spent more than $54 million on the project...

It's been a minute since I posted here, but what does this Cheetah Hunt support support?
