Ah, Bell's Amusment Park... it always brings back fun childhood memories! I am in my thirties, and we used to go to Bell's Amusement Park for our big school field trip from kindergarten through eight grade! I can remember looking at that Zingo, being utterly terrified. A few years later, I finally rode it... more terrifying than I had previously imagined! lol
Bell's is like a rite of passage for anyone who lives in Eastern Oklahoma. So many of us who loved it as children are now the ones taking our children... and teenagers (oh, why did I have to remind myself?)!
They are great for many reasons. Besides the tradition, they are always adding new rides and attractions, so they keep up with the times. They have rides for the youngest children, as well as for those really seeking a hard core thrill! They often offer special priced nights, so it is really affordable for anyone to go and spend the entire day.
If you've never been to Bell's and you live in Tulsa, you're missing out on a part of History!
