I was 10 back then and we lived in Cheektowaga. I watched a lot of WWII footage and things in Buffalo were not much different in terms of architecture and standard of living.

Is the sky wheel in Howard county fair my friend never try it
The best midway attraction ever! Find a better ride if you can.

They used to have one of those at the fair. It wasn't all that great because they would spend most of the time loading it and then after it was full the big part would only rotate two times and then they would unload it. The line was always too long to worry with. I only rode it once or twice.

You don't see many of these anymore... Reason being that they take more time to load/unload than when the ride is in full operation (main boom also spinning)... At certain longer/larger carni venues, such as county or state fairs, the carni company would sometimes have two skywheel rides set up and connected side by side at the stationary supports...

The image of Mildred Miller is a wheelchair was from 1960. She had broke her leg going down a spiral slide at the Fair earlier that week and did not raise her leg at the end, as she tried to brace her stop suddenly.

Real sky wheel colors for the lights are yellow, green and sometimes red for the bull wheels. Also, the stars are missing.

What is the purpose of swinging it back and forth in the first few minutes? Didn't look like they were doing anything except rocking it back and forth
@poppiarlin56122 жыл бұрын
That was to get the momentum to flip the ride. This ride is really balance sensitive. On set up you can only put together pieces at a time. Then flip it to work on the other side. It is my opinion they are erected too much on one side before trying to flip it. It shouldn’t be that hard to flip it if you only build a little at a time. The entire wheel is cable driven and the outer wheels that hold the seats are rim drive.

My grandfather is Al Reigle. He was in the conservation building with the game warden/conservation/trapping booth for a very long time. My grandmother's name Shirley is on a plaque in there too!☺️ I grew up going to the fair, even have lived in Florida since a baby. My last visit was 2018. I miss it so much. Hope to be back soon.
