Yep, about a month after it was closed. Maybe longer. In '78 Bubbles the Hippo escaped and hung out in a drainage ditch for almost 3 weeks before they corralled her. I think that was the start of the move to shut it down.

Whew. Thankfully you finally straightened out that story about Bubbles...some of us thought that maybe you had Bubbles confused with that other escapee who ran for President in 2016 and lost.

RIP Bubbles.
I would strongly (in a non-misogynist, hyper inclusive cisgender, environmentally Christian sharia way ) suggest that references to attractions of yesteryear include geophysical location data for the Butter Bars in Land Nav.

Lion Country Safari is well and open,,
Just short of Twenty-Mile bend
Near the fudge factory
On Southern Bldv, SR 98

IF you visit Florida

According to this Faux News piece, Vader will continue to occupy her seat until the Grim Reaper makes his final visit to her. Or, someone drives a wooden stake through her heart.

Congratulations to Supreme Court Jurist Amy Coney Barrett!

Well done all who saw fit to nominate, confirm and appoint this outstanding woman, mother, professor and judge to the high court.

ABSOLUTELY had to bring Box's quote over here.

-Thanks democrats, sometimes your petty activism and zealotry for propagandized optics is awesome and really DOES result in good things for America.
