And they still managed to get almost one million attendees, even in the cold!!!! Best time to go is when the weather cooperates....just go and enjoy.

thursday is usually can day and it is wall to wall with the can admission. Monday and tuesday are usually smaller. I have been on most days except saturday. go to their website and check attendance figures for the various days to see what days are more popular.

I talked / asked someone n the Wade Shows office about their Rainbow & the lady said it was on its way back to Florida. Talked to Steve (n e one know his last name?) on PGAM's midway & he said Wednesday they had it up but the inspectors told them to take it back down. Y ? I haven't a clue. Rainbow hasn't been at the NCSF n a long time now. 😞 the 1001/ Rock Star is fun too, but the Rainbow gives better airtime.

You really shouldn't post what people tell you... especially when it isn't even the correct story.

But it was nice of you to post the name of who told you that so the show can deal with him. Reminds me never to talk to you or tell you anything.

Another reason why owners find this site to be damaging to the biz.

Another reason to be careful what you say and who you say it to. Some people believe anything they hear and run to blast it. Another reason many folks don't like sites like this or social media in general.

I was simply telling what I was told by a few head type people, responding to Daniel's post about Wade's Rainbow. I'm a messenger, b upset towards those with that false info. But since that lady I talked to was n Wade's office, how can she b wrong ?& she travels with Wade! Go tell her off if u wanna, not little ol me. If I saw a post that was false, I'd simply tell what happened had I known & had been with a particular show a long time & the show owner told me what happened. Steve was probably right, and he was guessing that's y it got taken back down, he wasn't sure himself. If someone knows about the Rainbow, tell us something, please? The mad/bad//mean comments r old now.

You make a habit of missing the point. I do not care enough to help you see it.

Carry on.

I say this as easy as I can, it's ok if you hear something's but sometimes best to just keep what you hear to yourself. Sometimes they are right sometimes the information is wrong.

Something's are just better left alone at times.

I have not seen one anywhere. Wade has 3 coasters there, rc-48, comet and crazy cat, hitn2000, kmg fireball, pirate, enterprise, himi, 2 chance wheels, mega drop, alpine bobs, giant slide, street fighter, fighter, and lots others. pgam has all their pieces there including new Khaos. pgam's new cliff hanger is the sharpest one I have seen. with the colors and lighting package it really stands out. the inversion was running full loads and has a great light package also but looking at the midway from the grandstands the stampede seems to have the best light show. of course the diver was not in view to compare tho.
