Join us for our first time ever at Kentucky Kingdom & Hurricane Bay amusement park! We ride some of their most popular roller coasters including Storm Chaser, Lightning Run and Kentucky Flyer, and some fun charming rides like the antique cars of Tin Lizzies, explore the park and water park area, walk across an actual street in the middle of an amusement park, and have a yummy lunch at Casa Mia! This is part of our summer 2022 mega road trip visiting tons of theme parks, amusement parks, attractions, nature and scenic vistas and more cool things around the USA, hope you're enjoying the road trip so far and if you missed any, get caught up because there's a lot more to come! Thanks for watching!
Welcome to Super Enthused! My name is Jackie and I bring you along as we visit fun and unique travel destinations, theme parks and attractions, road trips, resort tours and so much more. I hope you enjoy the videos, thanks for being here! ❤️

And to this day, Sam is still stuck in the T3 restraints 😂 yup, it used to be a Six Flags park from 1998 to 2010 when amid a bankruptcy, Six Flags ceased operations of the park immediately on February 4, 2010 after the rejected their lease with the Kentucky State Fair Board. Ed Hart hoped to have it reopen that year by Memorial Day, but negotiations initially failed and it wasn't until January 2013 that the state fair board approved the lease, and the park reopened in 2014. Holiday World in Indiana was even interested in operating it!

As a Ky girl, I am glad to know that Kentucky Kingdom has been purchased and may get some attention! I think it has a lot of potential but, in my opinion, from day one there has just always been something missing! You and Sam are so much fun! You live in Orlando where they have some of the most awesome theme parks in the world but you still enjoy all of the little things in smaller parks and fun touristy things! I think you all just have fun whatever you do and it’s so much fun to watch! 💕💕

If I had a nickel, for every time Ed Hart saved the park, I'd have two nickels! Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice. "No running, diving or horseplay" I guess when it comes to whether or not this park allows horses, the answer...is _neigh_

We were just here a few days ago. We got a great deal on Groupon. We did the water park on the first day (Friday) and it was not very crowded. We went back on Saturday to do the coasters only. The water park was SO crowded. We all had a great time though. Super friendly park and kind staff.

The ride op on Thunder Run was one of the best of our entire trip too, dude was hilarious.

This looks like a great amusement park and looks like it offers sweet rides for “kids”of all ages. Love that the waterpark is nearby so one can choose to do both. Those little car rides are always fun. I remember when we went to an Amusement Park was little and we went on one and our child was tall enough and old enough to drive. Glad that Sam was able to get out of the T3 ride. The dog show looked fun.
