When the sun goes down it means that the end of the day is nearing.



Not for HoliWood Nights as after the sun goes down we still have hours and hours of time to ride.



Each year HoliWood Nights is themed after a movie.  This year the theme was "Back to the Future" with the addition of Thunderbird and it's 1.21 giga-watt (well not quite that much) powered launch.



 Holidog McFly was there along with his doppelganger and owner Stephen from Holiday World's IT department.  Like Joe I used to hang with Stephen a lot when Holiday World was our stomping grounds.  He is one of the people that grew up at Holiday World moving up from a ride op into various departments.   What is great is seeing that there is a good core of people at Holiday World in management positions who grew up with Will Koch's vision and are continuing his work.  Not only is the park in good hands with the fourth generation of Koch's running the park but a great group of people making it run.



Friday night at HoliWood Nights means pizza and fudge for dinner.

This is Andrew Masters from Nebraska.  We ended up kind of dragging him to Holiday World despite the huge distance from his home.  It was no surprise that he was blown away by the park and the rides.
