Hi Mr. Rodgers,
I wanted to thank you and the Nashville Scene for [contributor Laura Brown's] December 2022 article on Opryland. I spent my childhood as an Opryland season pass holder. Thanks to this article, I learned that my all-time favorite ride, Chaos, had not died with Opryland's closure. Once I realized a few years ago that the same ride still exists in another country, I was determined to ride it.
Well, for my 50th birthday on June 4 last week, my family and I made that wish a reality! Crazy as it seems, in my quest for nostalgia we traveled all the way to Antwerp, Belgium, to Bobbejaanland to ride Chaos' sister ride, Revolution. It absolutely lived up to every expectation of when I rode it as a teen, and it was so magical to share the ride with my own two teen sons and my husband!
Thank you for your work. I love the Nashville Scene and I'm forever grateful for this article!! Thank you again!!

Nashville was home to an iconic theme park like no other in the country. Then it was shuttered for ‘no compelling reason.’
