What’s in a name?

Wacky throwback?

It was a great experience to head out to the farm and enjoy the tribute they erected right at the original exit to the ride almost exactly 40 years later. in asking someone to take my picture in the mocked up vehicle, they shared their love of the ride by telling me to lean. So fun. what I enjoyed the most was the merchandise they created and so much of it! Some of the pieces just said “Soap Box Racers” omitting “wacky” in the title. This struck me, as I originally fought to have the name of the ride just be “Soap Box Racers” as I felt telling guests it’s “wacky” was too “on the nose.” Like saying something is hip, makes it unhip. I lost that battle with Marion Knott and yet I could not resist buying a “Soap Box Racers” hat and shirt.
