National Roller Coaster Day

Each year on August 16th people gather together at amusement parks to celebrate the Roller Coaster.

The North Dakota State Fair had a traveling carnival set up each year. It was too cold, and the summers to short to build anything permanent. So I never was able to fall in love with a certain ride, because the roller coasters they brought were small and easily portable.

The craziest one went straight up for like, 3 stories, then circled around the outside, then over a few bumps before stopping. I didn't care for it. The coasters you'll find at amusement parks today are simply insane. I would like to try one some day, but they don't like fat people.
