No, it wasn't the Sea Storm Bahn. Speaking of that ride, i've not seen that ride in a long long time now. The last time i saw it , or the very first one in person was down in Aberdeen, NC at a fair that Reithoffer Shows was setting up at. It was a smaller fair, not sure if it was an event or not. Snowman, you are EXACTLY right! That was the ride that i rode when i was 3. [8D] I guess at 3 years old, and probably 3 year olds now get a kick out of that ride. The up & down motion is similar to the Himalaya & Tilt-a-Whirl, minus the speed. Yes, that was it, the Eyerly Bulgy the Whale. I typed in that in images on Google and that's the ride. Thanks for solving the mystery after all of these years! I have photos of those rides that night, some my parents took of me riding them.
Now, as to what show that was, i'm clueless. They had a Rock-o-Plane, that Eyerly Bulgy the Whale, Sooper Jet, Nascar-like kiddie ride, and others were there, but i would have to see the pictures. I think they had some Hamptons out there that night too..could be wrong, but i think i remember seeing one or two Hampton kiddie rides.
