New Libertyland book: amzn.to/2xLTz8J
Nice tribute. As a former Libertyland employee (1989-1993) I know a lot of people are going to miss the park, but the memories I have will last forever.
I will NEVER forget when the FAIRGROUNDS were for the MID-SOUTH-FAIR, LIBERTY LAND, COLISEUM, & LIBERTY BOWL!
I am happy to say my community is helping to keep a piece of LibertyLand alive. Bay Beach in Green Bay, WI will be the new home of the Zippin Pippin. I'm excited A. that I don't have to drive 5 hours to ride a coaster and B. that part of LibertyLand's legacy will continue. So sad to see something that brought so much happiness to many was left forgotten and unwanted. Beautiful video, thanks!
HOLY SHIT LIBERTYLAND!!! I can't tell you how many times I've been there as a kid and and I know that most of you all( including me) rode the zippin pippin and the revolution, but does anyone remember the kamikaze, when you went on it and you looked down, it looked like you're 1000 feet up!
I loved the Kamikaze! That commercial about the Kamikaze was funny as hlle!
The Pippin apparently gave you a great view of Memphis...I was always to busy screaming ,my eyes closed in FEAR to notice a VIEW..It was then and remains--my definition of PURE JOY.
I miss this place. My grandparents took me there every summer when I was younger. I wished it was still open because I wanted to take my husband to the place that I so dearly loved as a kid. Libertyland, you are missed!!
Memphis is pitiful!! I mean really!! this was the best thing going for us!! now we have bass pro which is nice but nothing can replace that wooden beast that that called the zippin pippin!!!
right,miss the hell out of this place😞😢
I had great memories at libertyland and now everytime i hear this song it's going to make me think of those memories and make me cry.
Love this. Great memories for sure. Loved this place growing up. Hate that it couldn’t be saved.
Damn i miss that place :'(
I loved coming to this park when I was a kid.
*TEAR*
i MiSS THAT PLACE i USED TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN THERE!!
This is so beautiful I was there as skid
the Revolution roller coaster is actually under construction at the Delgrosso's amusement park in Tipton, PA. it's scheduled to be open for the 2008 season
Man I loved this place as a kid. So many memories sad it closed
Great place to grow up in the 60's.I don't live there anymore but I still Love the Memphis I remember
Omg so many memories here !! Will never forget this place. Makes me sad that kids won't have this to look forward to anymore.
every year when we wnt to Memphis always had to go to Libertyland! shame its gone!!!!!!!!!!!
Me being born in 1991 about two hours away (we lived close to Jackson TN) means I thankfully got to go several times in my life.
The last time I went there was 2004 though I can't remember the month. Must have been summer around June or July as it was when my dad came back from overseas. He was with the National Guard in Brownsville TN and got sent to Iraq in 2003 and was gone for a year.
I remember him coming home and we went with some family friends of ours. Unfortunately I don't remember much about the day other then a few small things. I do remember some stuff from other times going as well but sadly not a lot of memories. Really wish it was open still but last I heard it was turned into a golf course.
Another part of my good times died! Thanks for the video!
Cool video, brings backs lots of memories. I went there as a child, then took my cousin there when he was a child. Lots of fun times. So sad it's gone.
R.I.P LIBERTYLAND
Great video!
😞 in fact it actually did close in 2005! Liberty land that is! The fair stayed like 2 or 3 more years people! I went in 2008
I'm sorry that the park closed but then again I'm not cause we are getting it her in Altoona! I can't wait!
I WENT THERE EVERY YEAR
i waited a long time to go on a ride now all of my hope to go on that ride is gone i was seven now im 10 nothing is right anymore without liberty land i loved it there i was always going to go there for my birthday if i could i would die there. . . RIP liberty land if only i could re-live that moment. . .:(
Revolution, an Arrow looper. It was moved to Delgrossos where it is currently in storage.
we got one of the old car ride cars in hernando, mississippi
@t38j19jb
so thats why it closed becuase it was in memphis's chrinimal district?
every summer id come to visit my aunt and other family members in memphis and every yr id ask to go if i can remember i think i only was able to go twice and then when my aunt passed away in 03 was the last time ive been there and always wonder if liberty land was around and then when i found out it was closed for good my heart was broken :( RIP LIBERTY LAND
The Revolution was my ride. Ride it, get off and get back in line to go again!
I remember i was so scared the ride the Revolution =)
I remember that ride i always called the hammer head that i cried when I got on for the first time.
I remember wanting to puke after being in the boat roller coaster thing
=) I'mm miss it. its only in my memories now..
I was planning to go with my cousin and had no clue this happened to it.
Its a shame, it was a good park. I'll miss you Libertyland!
Who's to say that the good time's isn't over, every city need's an amusement park , this is just some bad publicity LIBERTYLAD WILL MAKE A GIANT COMEBACK with a low 1 ride price to fit your budget
...oh me too. Many years on the midway.
If I remember correctly we use to call it " Three flags over orange mound." Will be missed.
@juliet97 You are SO right !
@kablooie46 Would love to see Libertyland reopened. But with the Zippin Pippin being sold to a park in Green Bay Wisconson, would it be the same ? What would they bring back ? I MISS LIBERTYLAND !
@elvisworldwide The Zippin Pippin was originally constructed in 1912 and moved to the fairgrounds later. Do you realize that it's going to be reassembled in a park out in Green Bay WI ?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the 2 dislikers have no heart,nor a soul :'(
RIP LIBERTYLAND!!!!
That’s why I moved to nyc Memphis died years ago nothing but death and great food 🥘 💯💯💯💯
I live in Green Bay Wisconsin and want to say RIP Liberty Land💔🙏 but the zippin pippin is fun in Green Bay
So am I. Were you at the Q1075 interview last year?
2005 was the last time Libertyland was open to the public,you were probably on the fair grounds for the mid-south fair...NOT Libertyland
so whats left of it now?
is the whole park empty or does it still have some park related stuff sill in it?
As of now its Tiger lane.
Loved Libertyland... got to ride The Revolution 3x in a row once, without the brakes...
but you misspelled 'Libertyland' in the final title card.
so is the park destroyed and replaced with a different area or they left the park alone?
Tiger Lane
It closed in 2005 due to financial problems.
Didn't that yellow drop tower go to Ghost Town in the Sky in North Carolina?
Elias Mertens i thought ghost town in the sky was in tennessee and became dollywood??
No. Ghost Town in the Sky is in Maggie Valley, North Carolina. rcdb.com/4585.htm
ok then maybe im thinking of silver dollar city. one of them became dollywood😂😂
Yeah. Dollywood's former name is Silver Dollar City. Although there is also another Silver Dollar City right here in Branson, Missouri.
@RandallChambers yep, just days before his death, in fact.
...the only thing left is Tops BBQ... hasnt changed... ever!
@odog65 Really?
well having near by casinos didn't help because people took their money there instead of taking kids to liberty land!! and with the living expense increase most of the peoples income is spent on higher living cost most people can't afford to go to places of entertainment!!! its still very sad that such a nice place had to shut down
look it up on google earth. all that is left is dirt.
Good caring white people died off that lived near the park that charged park attendee's parking at an all day price but watch here come's the blood's and the crip's
Actually Libertyland was I'm the Orange Mound area were it was and is predominantly black people. At that time the area was upper middle class Black people. The hangs didn't shut Libertyland down but the black offinamces diid.
Wait a minute 7 flags hey that is more than 6! 7 flags,more flags more fun! LOL
i remember going & riding the rides. they never should of tour the place down, memphis has went to hell.. the pippin & revolution was the best!!!!
Uh, they just pulled the deal 2 days ago.
save library land revelution I will tell the mayor of Memphis to re open library land
six flags went into financial problems and yet it still runs
@t38j19jb HICKORY was hit my a tornado..THATS why it closed..not for any thugs
Bring a six flags the memphis please!!!!!!! Or bring Libertyland back..or build a six flags in Mississippii...there's plenty of room there...They need to build a six flags in every state..
@rrober2394 Wish I could give this comment a million thumbs up. He F'd this city up so bad it ain't even funny.
your music choice for this, a nice memorial vid...👎
in response to juliet97 you forgot to thank the one person who singlehandedly turned memphis into a big pile of crap king herenton!!!
Horrible song
