Powder Keg — Attraction in Missouri

My family and I try to make a trip up to Branson from Texas at least once a year. Though we always try to add something new each time, one constant was Silver Dollar City. My now adult children always enjoyed it when we visited. Now the tradition is now including our seven year old. He just absolutely loves amusement park rides and with every ride that we come up he automatically goes to the ride requirement pole. Though he hasn’t been able to ride any of the thrill rides yet, he still checks. Well this time ( even though I checked online beforehand) he goes up to the Powder Keg pole and BOOM!! he is able to ride. You should have seen his face. That made it all worth it. We go and get in line, and the excitement continues throughout the line. We get off and I asked “Well, what did you think? Did you like it?” “NO DAD, I DID NOT LIKE IT!” “I LOVED IT!!!

Plus the rest of the ride is also fantastic, providing some great flojector airtime moments through the woods. Plus it's just such a querky ride that you gotta love. The history is great, the theming is solid, and is just overall an awesome ride that needs to get more appreciation from...
