Episode 48: The Brilliance of Calico Ghost Town
Manage episode 288851461 series 2106176
In this lively episode, join Alice and Buddy as they dive deep into the wonders of Knott’s Berry Farm and the understated brilliance of its Calico Ghost Town. This is the attraction that made Knott’s what it is today—and it stands today as one of the most comprehensive, complete, and thoroughly realized themed lands in Southern California, if not the world. How did it get here, what is it like to visit presently, and where can it go to become more than is today?
Talking Points include: A Brief History of Knott’s, The Calico Attraction Lineup, The Majesty of Silver Bullet, The Thrills of Ghost Rider, the Duology that is the Calico Mine Ride and the Timber Mountain Log Ride, the Mystery Lodge and its Complicated Role, and a list of suggestions for the Calico Ghost Town of the Future.
