Anacybele Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 (edited) I feel like throwing this out there since I personally think it's rather amazing. The Jack Rabbit roller coaster in my home amusement park of Kennywood turns 100 this year, no joke! It's the sixth oldest roller coaster in the world and is the only roller coaster in existence to feature a double dip in its track design. It was built in the park in 1920 and has been giving riders thrills since. 🙂 It isn't very big, nor does it break any records, nor is it even the only coaster named Jack Rabbit. But it's a neat classic and it will always have that unique double dip that makes you feel like you're gonna fly out of your seat! 😜 The fact that it's this this old now is awesome, not many coasters or rides in general can say they're so old and still running today. Even by Kennywood standards, this is cool, and Kennywood is pretty damn old itself (opened in 1898). Happy 100th anniversary to this classic coaster! 😄 Has anyone else here been to Kennywood and ridden this coaster before? I'm from the Pittsburgh area, so I've done it many times. The Racer is my favorite classic old coaster, but I can't say I don't enjoy a ride on the Jack Rabbit either. Anyone else have a favorite old classic coaster?  Edited February 12, 2020 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
