Research

Hey pals. I've mentioned this before but it's become very important to me lately so I'll spill it out again.

In the four or five years before this blog started I became increasingly interested in the "hows and whys" of the late Horizons pavilion. This lead me to collecting information from our local library and similar outlets nation wide. What I found, now that I'm reading over thousands of photocopies of news articles, is that Horizons was never very popular with the general public!!! What the good lord FUCK!

Opening day reviews from newspapers from here to Tulsa PAN the attraction on opening day with the general comment "we've seen this all before". WHAT!?

I'm a broken man right now because I can't believe what I'm reading. I want death hard and fast. GIVE ME THE SWINE FLU, LORD!!!!!!!!!!!

...........................

I just went outside for some fresh air and I think it might be important for us "cool people" to read over this horseshit, for what it's worth, and decide for ourselves.

I'm going to post these clippings little by little. Please try not to get upset like I have.

I'll drink bleach and end it all. I swear.



I DID find a cool opening day interview with Wathel Rogers about Audio-Animatronics. Light in this supreme darkness.

Close-up departure

A closer view of the right side. I'm not going to post all of the pics I took of this sign for now. I'll post all of them at the end though. Like I said, there are so many similar shots out there so I'll save mine for a massive bundle when I run out of material.

Speaking of that, I have posted 119 of my personal pictures so far not counting what Chief posted or the pics I grabbed from ebay. 119 and, folks, and we aren't even close to the end:)
