DBru Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 My family and I are heading down to Fort Lauderdale for Christmas this winter. Being how I am, of course I plan on getting some credits while on the trip. We will definitely hit Boomers! and the Dania Beach Hurricane, but there is also this place called Uncle Bernie's Theme Park in the area that I might check out. I remember seeing a TR regarding this little park on Negative-G a few years back, but I'm trying to gather some more recent info on it, and their website is absolutely no help. I am wondering, is this park worth a visit, even just as a quick credit stop? Are there any decent/adult thrill rides there? How are the prices? Also, I guess it would help to know when/if the place is open...lol. Any information you have to share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

robbalvey Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 OMG! If it's still open you NEED to go!!! Abandoned Mine will blow you away!!! It's probably going to be best to call them as they are part of the Florida Swap Shop and Drive in: CALL (954) 791-7927 http://www.floridaswapshop.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I just want to second what Robb said. I'm so glad I added on a few extra days from the cruise to get this credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Mike Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 The Big Mike Road Show stopped at Uncle Bernies last month, but it won't be posted for quite a bit as I am behind! I liked the fact it was in a large flea market that I could walk around in, and also a huge drive in movie complex! The park is pretty run down and almost all kiddie rides, with the exception of a ferris wheel, a small log flume, bumpe boats, and a ride I have pictured below. To me, it was worth the trip! Peace, Big Mike My opinion, only adult ride. I have pictures of all the rides if you really want to see them. Peace, Big Mike Coaster 2 Coaster 1 Prices and ride list of 18 rides on the right.

FLIPDUDE Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I'm confused... What's so cool about Abandon Mine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Why didn't you check the TPR Park Index? We have information on Uncle Bernies as well as like 500 other parks. http://www.themeparkreview.com/parks/page.php?pageid=73 And I wouldn't call this place a 'theme park'...LOLOLOLOLOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dj snow Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Of course it's a theme park! The theme is BARGAINS. Where are the bargains? At the Swap Shop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
