I have been reading this from beginning to end and a lot has warmed my heart with great memories and some has made me a little angry. But then I just stop to think, you can't believe everything you read on the internet! So I would like to take this time a CORRECT some misunderstandings that have been put out there, If I May. If Morris Vivona made the statement that "Kick Boodie was regulated out of business" then he was wrong. We have never been banned from any State, any Fair or Festival. As far as Kick Boodie being safe, well if the facts be known, there probably isn't a ride made that hasn't had one kind of an accident or another. So choose you poison! For many year we were independent operators with the big shows. Then we decided that we could do better on our own and we did for many more years just showing in the State of Kentucky where we retired. George was in and accident in 2004 that really damaged his health. He was left with only 17% of his heart function. That is why he could no longer travel so we retired here in KY. He did not pass away in 2011 as was posted by some one else. But I do regret to inform everyone that he did just pass away on 5-23-13 at 9:32pm in my arms. We were married for 30 years and "THE KICK BOODIE MAN"
WILL live on FOREVER in our memories!!! Posted by his wife: Mrs. Boodie
