Ride 'em!

Gary, Indiana, Michael Jackson’s home town has decided to honor the star with his own King of Pop theme park! Wowzers! The park will include a golf course, museum, 300-room hotel, a performing arts center, and roller coaster “Thriller” ride.

Odie Anderson, the theme park’s operations agent said:

“We will begin construction of the facilities this year. We have set aside a specific date, tied to a special Jackson event, for the ground breaking.”

This is pretty exciting! In addition to the golf course, hotel, and roller coaster, the park will also feature king-sized communal beds for “nap time with grown men”, as well as several “old-time circus” themed concessions selling tangy “duck-butter” and refreshing “Jesus juice“…

Just kidding. Jeez.

Incidentally, am I the only person who thinks that since Michael Jackson’s actually dead now, the idea of a fucking interactive ride that careens through a graveard where he plays a re-animated corpse/werewolf is piss-in-your-pants horrifying? Just checking…
