Big Mike Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hello Valuable Big Mike Readers! Today's episode of The Big Mike Road Show comes to you from the Black Hills of South Dakota once again, and this is South Dakota's first and largest state park! What is nice about this state park is that is has wildlife roaming free all over the park, and it has some outstanding scenery also! I hope you enjoy! Peace, Big Mike Custer State Park! Big Mike showing you some of the nice scenery! More scenery. Even more scenery! Enough scenery, how about a deer? You can see a deer almost anywhere, how about a bison? How about a whole group of bison, wandering free around the park! The bison are the huge draw here, but Big Mike loved the burros a whole lot more! You were allowed to feed them right from your car! Look at those ears! Of course, when you start feeding one, everyone wants to join in on the free food! You were free to get out of your car and mingle with the burros, or you could stay inside and be a chicken like Mom. Baby burro! Bonus points for Big Mike for bringing you a pair of babies! Custer State Park was a nice mixture of scenery and........ ...... wildlife! Hope you enjoyed! Peace, Big Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted April 17, 2012 Author Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hey Big Mike, what is your plan to get through the busiest border crossing in the world in under two hours? Tell me your secret!!! I am going to use the Mexican underground drug tunnels! I guess I better re-adjust is what you are saying?? lol Peace, Big Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simon8899 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Reminds me of wildlife parks here were you're allowed to feed deer which grew up in captivity - but there on slow crowd days about 50 deers start to siege you and stick their heads into all your pockets...

HighRoller Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I also don't know about the SCAD tower - that seems like a fool's errand to me. I'd me much more comfortable with skydiving (which is on my bucket list) than the tower, but that's just me I guess. Also, sorry to hear about the cancellation of the Super Epic contest, but since I'm already enrolled, is there any chance you might pass on a clue as to what the prize for the not-so-epic contest might be......?

mikeykaise Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 yeah I think I'll pass on the SCAD tower myself too. I don't think I could get myself to get enough nerve to do it, just give me a track and a car and you can spin me, loop me, and dive me all you want.

Brandy524 Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I have to join in with those who pass on the SCAD tower! I'm such a big chicken with heights, even secured in a coaster, so there's no way I could just fall like that. It gave me chills just looking at the pictures! Love the Custer State Park scenery. And the baby burros are so cute! Love that you can just get out and interact with them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomNick Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Hey Big Mike! Some really awesome updates recently, as I'm catching up through them. Loved the Knoebels wedding....that was really cool. And those SCAD towers are something else! I'd have to do it if I came across one, but I'm positive it would scare the bejesus out of me!!! Your trip to southern California sounds amazing and is jam-packed full of fun! Have a great time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted April 18, 2012 Author Share Posted April 18, 2012 Hello Valuable Big Mike Readers!!! Today's edition of The Big Mike Road Show is kind of super cool to The Big Man, as this is a park visit to one of the "at the time" 13 coasters that Big Mike had been denied to ride! Yes, even The Big Mike Charm does not work sometimes, but then again, can a place handle a 2nd dose of Big Mike Charm??? Big Mike was eager to find out! Kids 'N Action is only 3 miles away from Coney Island, yet it is extremely overlooked and most often never even heard of except for the die hard coaster enthusiasts, especially the ones that count powered coasters! Big Mike collects every type of coaster there is, so this was a big deal to The Big Man! Big Mike uses coaster-count as his roller coaster counter, the best out there by far, and it has a full map of everywhere you need a roller coaster still, and this red balloon so close to Big Mike World Headquarters really bothered The Mighty Big Man, so he decided to give it another shot. Big Mike packed another stronger dose of The Big Mike Charm in his back pocket and ventured out with his lovely Megan, it was time to collect! Hope you enjoy! Peace, Big Mike Kids 'N Action in Brooklyn New York! Prices. Deals! Overview of the Miner Mike roller coaster and nice art work. Reverse overview. Hey, what does that sign say in the bottom right hand corner? Ugh! Adults NOT allowed to ride, and the word NOT is highlighted in big bold AND underlined!!! Not a chance The Mighty Big Man is getting this coaster credit! Well, Big Mike figures that he will tour the complex and bring lots of pictures for all of his Valuable Big Mike Readers to see since no one has ever covered this place before on Theme Park Review once again, and it is usually tradition for when TPR folks think of who they can count on in situations like this, The Big Mike Road Show is the 1st place that pops into their minds! Play area. Train. Go Kart Track. Reverse angle. One of the kid karts. Little kid play area. Lots of prizes to be won! This is also the area where you get to before the girl tells you that adults can't ride the coaster, but since Big Mike was taking pictures of everything for The Big Mike Road Show, he was allowed to enter. Snack bar. Big Mike notices that there are some kids on the coaster now and heads over to take a picture or two. While Big Mike is by the coaster wishing he was one of those kids riding, the owner comes up to Big Mike and asked why The Big Man was taking so many pictures in his place. Big Mike replied that he travels the World trying to ride every roller coaster, takes lots of pictures of all the places, and then posts them for all the Valuable Big Mike Readers to see! The owner thanks The Mighty Big Man for the coverage of his establishment and then suddenly out of the blue, Big Mike hears " Would you like to ride this roller coaster?" Ka-Ching! One less roller coaster on the previously denied list!!! Big Mike made sure to remove The Big Mike Charm from his back pocket before hopping in to ride Huge thanks to the owner for making this possible, and as promised, Big Mike will now write Kids 'N Action with a link so that they can see the finished report! Hope everyone enjoyed, and if you go to check out this fine place, make sure to tell them that Big Mike sent you! Peace, Big Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Mike Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Dear Corey, I majorly overlooked your Mega Ball, I am very sorry! I have to go back and double check every drawing at the end of the contest before I declare it official, because this has been harder to do than I thought it would be lol. Here is an up to date standings summary as of right now as I write this, up to Wed drawing: Corey did indeed hit the Mega ball after double checking, so he gets 3 points! Monday, Brian and Jeff got a single point. Tuesday, Brian scored again!! So far: STR8FXXXINEDGE - 5 Coreys Junk - 3 Super Shawn - 2 picknyourseat - 2 Traincrossin - 1 The Bebes - 1 Reality15 - 0 Thanks again!
