^I'll admit the park is not in the best shape, but they have finally spent some money since the attendance is starting to go up. If you think the park is "rundown and crappy" now, you should have seen it before they started the "repairs". Oh well the park will only be in it's current location until 2008.
The park can be nice if your are with little kids. I went in 2003 with my cousin and he loved the park, and I had a good time. Sure it is not as nice as Cedar point, but when a park only gets than 200,000 visitors a year, you can't expect everything to be in the best shape.
