Theme Park Flashback
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

I want to say King's Island, but I cannot support that assertion. Or at least I'll say it in 67 more seconds....

Re: Theme Park Flashback
Banana Splits, HR Pufnstuf, The Black Baron, a couple others I don't remember the names of--one had a tropical theme and had "Baby Elephant Walk" as its theme song--Hobo Kelly, Sheriff John , Engineer Bill, Bozo the Clown, were my favorites in the 60s/70s.
