Trivia

 * Both of the movies were filmed in 1984 for Laserdisc movie theater called Cine-Vote at Expo '85. After the fair ended, It was moved to Memphisworld for 1986 season.
 * The park contacted CCI to build Hurricane. For reasons still unknown years later, they ended up contacting RCCA (Roller Coaster Corporation of America) instead.
 * Memphis Comet took one year to relocate. In fact the ride was still under reconstruction when the park opened in 1986, so it opened about halfway through the season.
 * When Adventure City’s Tree Top Racers arrived at the park in late 2013, the cars had literally been lost (That said, there is a possibility some of them ended up at Lakeside). So they decided to build the cars from scratch, modeled like Schiff mouse cars.
 * Wildcat (formerly known as American Wildcat) was first coaster to constructed at the park.
 * When Playland's Corkscrew was sent to the park in 2020, the park initially wanted to rename it "Devil's Flight", as a reference/shout-out to Final Destination 3. However, a similar situation to Cedar Point's Banshee/Mantis controversy broke out and the ride was renamed to Vortex before opening.
 * This park is one of the few parks in the Carwardine Parks chain not to use a "Serpentine" family font, due to this Retro logo from 1986. Similar happen to Pizza Hut bringing back the 1974 logo in 2019.
 * While rebuilding Memphis Comet, One of NAD trains were seen in storage and later display at ride's queue line. They bought black and red PTC trains with buzz bars.
