    Man dies on Black Mamba

    According to Screamscape, which found the news in this news article, a 48 year old man died while riding Black Mamba at Phantasia Land. Apparently he got on the ride fine, but when the train came back in the station he was lifeless and they were unable to revive him. Thoughts go out to the family.

    Music in parks

    I was thinking about this today. What type of music is played n your home park? Does it depend on the section you're in (if there's a specific type of section like movie themed or whatever).
