    Big Bad Wolf and Corkscrew Hill are so meaningful to me. Last time I went to Busch right before covid they were selling Big Bad Wolf shirts in some of the gift shops. I definitely didn't expect that. Shows that it's still in everyone's heart after all this time. I hope they do justice however they revamp it

      BGW employee here! We still sell a lot of merch for our older rides. I peeked in the shop once on the way to my break once and spotted a Questor tee.

    Big Bad Wolf was the first coaster my daughter went on due to the height requirement being so low. (Only 42" or 3 ft 6") she was 5 years old then and the first time we rode, it was about 3pm. We ended up riding it 12 times back to back because she loved it that much and it was dark by the time we finished. Kind of glad they aren't doing the same clown haunt behind Roman Rapids as that was getting stale. Looks like they are stepping it up for their 25 year anniversary. I feel like Howl-O-Scream was better back when Busch owned the park with better scare zones, haunts, and shows. Wish they would bring back the werewolf scare zone near the pet show area, that was one of their best. Glad to see they are bring Fiends back as it was their best show, hope the sequel is as good as the original. Subscribed and looking forward to more videos :)

    Hey buddy! I have subscribed to your TH-cam channel. I definitely hope you'll keep me updated on any news about the return of The Big Bad Wolf at Busch Gardens.
    I remember the first time I went to Busch Gardens to ride The Big Bad Wolf. I had some vacation time from work and wasn’t sure what to do with it. My colleague Louise handed me a section of the New York Times newspaper that Sunday, and as soon as I opened it, there was a big spread about the opening of The Big Bad Wolf in Williamsburg, VA. I fell in love with it right away and made all kinds of arrangements and reservations to head to Busch Gardens in Williamsburg to ride it.
    The day I got there, I almost didn’t get to ride it because it wasn’t ready and was still having issues. But the next day, I finally got to ride it, and man, it was the bomb! It was the first suspended coaster I had ever ridden. The way it came off the hill and swung over the village-type houses was amazing. My favorite part was when it swung alongside the villages and there was a church bell that made an echoing bong sound as if the coaster had hit the bell as we flew by. It was great!
    When the coaster came down by the river, it felt like it was going 60 miles an hour, swinging back and forth. Oh my god, I loved that coaster so much that when I was a truck driver, I took the name “The Big Bad Wolf” as my CB handle. I sure do miss that ride, but I’ve heard rumors that they might bring it back in a different format at Williamsburg. That would be a great tribute to the original Big Bad Wolf. I love saying that name, “The Big Bad Wolf.” It sounds like me, LOL.

      Hey! Thanks for subscribing! We will most definitely keep you updated on all things Big Bad Wolf.
      That’s an awesome memory - it was one of my favorite rides too. I remember going when it was going to close and riding it five times in a row with my father. It was such a major part of growing up for me.
      Looking forward to seeing what new ride they bring to honor the original!

    The last time I went to BG Williamsburg it still had the moniker of 'The Old Country" and I rode Drachen Fire. That was also the last time I rode The Big Bad Wolf. It would be cool to see them bring it back in some form, especially since that and Loch Ness Monster were the iconic rides from my youth. Thanks for the awesome updates!
