@tachiai.org Such a fun basho! I was cheering for Aonishiki the whole time and was super excited when he beat Kotozakura and then won against Hoshoryu in the play off!! I was sad that we didn’t get to see the two Yokozuna go at it, but I was still very satisfied with the final day and all the excitement.

@lagoonisfun.com Thanks for mentioning something. I’m wondering if this is tied to the “150 foot” ride that Lagoon brought up in a recent Farmington City Council meeting. It’s quite possible they will reroute the track for placement of the next big ride. I’m going to have to keep an eye on that area next year.

I do have to call Lagoon out on one thing from their recent Fun Time Newsletter. They state that Nutcracker’s 105 static height is taller than Wicked’s tower. Wicked’s tower stands 110 feet tall, so Wicked is taller. Nutcracker’s swinging height will definitely go higher than Wicked.
