Anyone ever go to Action Park?

Came across this article on Deadspin about the not so safe amusement park in New Jersey. I know we have many members from around this area so I was curious if anyone has some stories to tell.

I grew up in NJ, and went many times. I have the scars to prove it.

That Action Park water slide is one bad looking idea

Wisconsin Dells has an abundance of water slides...guys like to hang out in the pool at the bottom, wait for the ladies in two-pieces to come barreling down...all those Gs...you can imagine the outcome.

I've had my trunks "rearranged" by the Wet and Wild water slide in Orlando. Probably not as pretty a sight as what you are talking about.

I lost mine this once on Gratiot Lake...being pulled on a big tube the object of the boat-driver (brother-in-law) was wipe-out...but nobody saw anything as my bottom half was in the water, trunks around my ankles. But yeah...the Dells is much nicer. Until guys get out of the water, tanned from the waist up...legs white.

This is a pretty great documentary about Action Park.
