​James Earl Williams Jr. was just 9 years old the first time he visited Busch Gardens Williamsburg.
The park was still new, and his uncle Roosevelt, a truck driver, stumbled upon it, bringing his family back for a day of family fun.
One of the first rides Williams got on was the Glissade, a twisty, steel roller coaster that sent riders flying up to 60 miles per hour, per Pilot archives.
“That was back in the ’70s,” said Williams, now 53. “We’ve been going ever since then.”

Folks with a yen for negative G-forces and churros in the heart of winter have long been able to head to destination theme parks in temperate Florida and California.
Those hoping to get their roller coaster fixes at parks in other parts of the country were generally out of luck. That’s changing as some seasonal parks open their gates in January and February and switch to four-season, year-round operation. But the screams reverberating on their midways this time of year may be as much from cold-weather chills as coaster thrills.

The Times-Herald received an email late Thursday from a citizen claiming that Six Flags is “eventually going to move out of its present location to Fresno” presumably because the park was dissatisfied with the alleged slow progress of Mare Island and the Solano County Fairgrounds’ 360 Project.
Vallejo City Manager Greg Nyhoff put his thumb down on any Vallejo-to-Fresno move.
