Search IDORA PARK DEMISE on You Tube and you will have even more of an opinion when a park HAS to close for economic reasons. Whether it is money, greed, fire, lack of customers, or nature related. Watch the old films of a beautiful park that was once a Trolley Station at the end of the line where families would come to enjoy a picnic and casual rides. It is heart wrenching to see it, just like your park was ripped out of your town. I feel for you!

This guy is clearly a jackass, someone should have stepped in from a higher authority and give him a sift kick in the ass. People like this deserve the worst that comes to them, concerned with norhing but money.

I also laughed at the guy at :33; it was certainly a fair question. And while I'm sad to see Geauga Lake go, it didn't make sense from a business perspective to keep it open. Cedar Point's growing stature within the last 21 years has sucked all the amusement park air out of northern Ohio. Unfortunately Geauga Lake was doomed to go under just like Euclid Beach and Chippewa Lake, regardless of whom owned it.
