48. After you've seen it once, it's the least attractive "attraction"

in the whole park. I think Gerald Ford was front and center when I saw it. Haven't seen it since.

In fact, after the first time, the whole thing is kind of a snooze. I can't imaging going back every year, although my parents did once it opened. I guess a lot of people like the predictable and nothing is more predictable than automated amusements that stay the same, year after year. The only thing that changes is the admission price.
