Roller coasters and theme parks are the best part about being a kid. There is no greater joy than waiting in a two-hour line for a two-minute ride: and then making your parents do it all over again with you.
From roller coaster buildings to magic theme parks, check out the all the thrilling innovations we've featured.
Implications - Theme parks want to draw their target audiences in with unique and odd ideas in regards to methods of entertainment. Themes such as drug lords and fast cars appeal to niche target audiences. These targets are willing to spend in order to have the experience that the theme park will provide throughout their visit.
