Here at the Southern Weekend we always respect the classics. At our next stop we were invited to partake in one of the best American traditions: riding a huge roller coaster. If you want to pack as much into one weekend as possible, Kentucky Kingdom is the place to be.
From the 129-foot Fearfall or Deepwater Dive, one of America’s tallest body slides, there really is something here for everyone.
I rode this in Louisville Kentucky!! I actually rode both. One is a 60 foot Drop while the other is 121 feet tall. The 5th Tallest in the World and The 2nd Tallest in America!!! I got on tv 3 times this day. Twice on the ride itself and an interview with some friends. I will post the date it will be on tv. But watch Xtreme Waterparks on #travelchannel August 9th at I think 10:00 pm. #Awesomeness #kentuckykingdom #deepwaterdive #121feet #Louisville #BeatthatCarowinds #BeatthatCharlotte #lol #bae #RecordSetter #berttheconqueror #travelchannel #television #newfriends #BestDay
It is a huge park. Over 63 acres and over 70 rides and attractions. Never a line to wait in. And you’ve always got something to do.
Rode T3 today front row, let’s just say it was an interesting ride and experience #T3 #kentuckykingdom #kentucky
And with so many great things to choose from, people travel from all over to visit.
One of those tourist magnets? The Storm Chaser, the only a roller coaster in the country with a Barrel Drop.
And it’s not just any barrel drop. It’s a drop from a 10-story hill at a 78-degree angle.
Newly greased track, who dis? Storm Chaser is running exceptionally well today with tons of speed & air! #kentuckykingdom
It’s family fun, all summer long. If you want to find out more about the park or plan a trip of your own, you can visit their website.
