A trip to a theme park is a rite of passage for nearly every American kid. The rides! The character costumes! The terrible food that costs too much! The souvenirs that also cost too much and end up getting thrown away when you move! To keep audiences engaged, theme parks are always changing. Cool new rides are always being added<\/a>, but that means old rides and attractions meet the wrecking ball. If you want a serious dose of nostalgia, it’s worth subscribing to the\u00a0Defunctland\u00a0YouTube channel.<\/a><\/p>\n
