Was just looking through my archives and found this!
I remember first entering UG Land in 2007, being too short to ride Rita but just big enough to experience Corkscrew. I also remember on the final day of operation in '08 the team created a spectating point in the ride area. We stood right below the two iconic corkscrews, behind some standard moveable construction fencing,
whilst the ride was operating! - now there's something that would
never happen today haha.
Standing at the entrance plaza now I can still picture that memory of the spectating zone on the last day - with the trains roaring overhead. Great memories!
