MarioGate
In 2003, an employee who was intoxicated from the alcohol located in the employee lounge dressed up like Mario was caught stripping out of the costume and running around naked screaming "Look at me, i'm a birdie!", afterwards, the employee was banned and alcoholic drinks in all places in the park were perminately banned.

Confederate display controversies thru the years
In 2017, shortly after the Unite the Right rally, protesters came to the park to protest the inclusion of the Confederate flag on several of the carousel artworks, some attempted to vandalize the nearly century old art, but were tasered by park security and their fingerprint was no longer valid for entering the park. Out of fear, any person wearing any politically charged-attire, whether it be left or right-leaning, are refused admission until they go back home and change their shirt. Chris Carwardine permanently banned the words "KKK", "Confederate" and the combined word "Hate Speech" from c/Alabamas_Backyard on Carwardine Forums.

Trivia

 * The 2003 music video for "Imagination is the Key", directed by Andy Bödecker, was filmed in the Redwall Abbey area while it was still named PBS Kids Neighborhood.
 * Woosh! is one of only two coasters in operation to go above a major highway (the other being Ravine Flyer II), and the only to go above an Interstate.
 * After being replaced with floorless ones, one of Redwall's old sit down trains was put on display in the ride's queue line, while the other was put in storage where it currently remains.
