The Wade Shows’ second New York State Fair Midway will bring some new surprises, including one very tall ride that is meant to thrill without speed. The Observation tower will lift riders gently 100 feet into the air, promising a bird’s-eye view of the surrounding grounds.
It sounds like a great place to capture some panoramic Fair photos and the Hound is planning to do just that. We’ll post some during the Fair. It also reminds us of the gondola ride Strates used to run years ago. Wade has one they call the Sky Liner. That over-the-top (literally), ride soars above the midway, offering a different view of the festive landscape, one that the whole family can appreciate. Maybe next year.
Meanwhile, if you want to see what else Wade has in store for this year, check their website where you can find a list and description of the rides they plan to erect on our midway this time around. And don’t forget your advance-sale ride passes–$20-$25 is a great deal for dedicated riders.
