I don't think I've ever laughed so hard. My husband was insistent we check this attraction out and…read moreour group was like "ok whatever". Once we got inside and found a good vantage point, I could have stayed all day. What could be more fun than watching people rush to get on a platform that then spins them off into a wall. The last one left wins but if they are too good, the staff will throw medicine balls at them or try to snare them with ropes to dislodge them.
