    Loved going there as a kid. Always an early summer carnival. A rite of passage. A short walk from QM. Threw up once when I was quite young on a twisty ride called The Cobra. Good times.

    Fast forward about 30+ years.:The wife and I take our two young kids to MHR carnival on a Friday night. I didn’t know where I was. Like I stepped into the Twighlight Zone. I actually felt unsafe with all the Dude around. Left quickly. Never been back. Sad.
