Six Flags Kings Adventure

Located in Syracuse, New York.

History
The park opened in 1977 under the ownership of Taft Broadcasting, as Kings Adventure.

In 1980, Dragon Race, a clone design of Racer/Rebel Yell/Thunder Road was built. However, unlike the other three, which were initially painted white (although Thunder Road was later painted a more natural brown), this coaster was painted a sea green color, with the two sides being named Hydra (Black train) and Leviathan (Blue train, would face backwards starting in c. 1983-1984).

In 1984, Astro Spin was added, in a plot of land originally intended for a Schwarzkopf Bayern Kurve that never came to be.

In 1985, Hanna-Barbera Land was expanded. Scrappy's Swings were added, along with several Smurfs props.

In 1986, Berserker was added.

In 1990, Rip Roarin' Rapids was added, along with Huckleberry's Trucks.

In 1993, after Paramount purchased the park, some Paramount signage was added and the X-Base section was added, but it's just a preview for...

1994. Paramount did a lot of changes to fit their brand. Most notably, Silver Streak was renamed Top Gun, and The Beast was added.

In 1995, Scooby-Doo became Scooby-Doo and the Beatie.

In 1996, Escape from Congo was added, along with Drop Zone, and Boardwalk was split into three sub-lands.

In 2003, Beavis and Butt-head's Rockin' Starship was renamed to simply "Ricochet" as the show was deemed irrelevant and was off the air for over half a decade by this point.

In 2004, Hanna-Barbera Land was rethemed to Nickelodeon Central, due to licensing conflicts from Six Flags that were heating up, along with, with the exception of Scooby-Doo, the characters being irrelevant to modern kids. Star Trek: Borg Assimilator, Twister, and Jimmy Neutron's Atomic Spin were also added that same year.

In 2005, SpongeBob's Pineapple Pop was added.

In 2006, Paramount Parks sold all their parks to Six Flags, including Kings Adventure. It had the "Six Flags" moniker added to it's name starting 2007.

In 2007, Ricochet was relocated to DC Comics City and renamed Mr. Freeze's Frozen Ice Rocket, while Boardwalk Flyers was added to Mr. Freeze's old spot in Boardwalk. Wiggles World also opened that same year. Some of the rides would also be renamed, including Top Gun (which was renamed Batwing), Escape from Congo (which was renamed Kingda Ka), and Spongebob CoasterPants (which was renamed Roadrunner Railway).

In 2008, Tony Hawk's Big Spin was added.

In 2011, Superman: Ultimate Escape was added, and Wiggles World was renamed Kidzopolis.

In 2012, SkyScreamer was added.

In 2014, Dragon Race was converted into Twisted Dragon, featuring a Mobius-style layout rather than two consecutive side-by-side racing tracks. Kingda Ka also received new Vekoma trains with vest restraints that year.
