It was a roller coaster that swung your car 1/2 way off the track over the river.<br /><br />I loved to spend my pennies in the Gallery on cards with pinups. The old fashioned black and white ones, like Lana Turner and Jane Russell in tight sweaters. A penny apiece. I'd leave there with a thick pack of cards and a penny that I'd defaced by stamping it in a machine by the door out.
