North Brunswick Youth Sports Festival 2022 (Carnival Rides)

Here's some video from the 2022 North Brunswick Youth Sports Festival in North Brunswick, NJ. This year was apparently the 25th anniversary of the event. I'd love to see what this fair looked like back in 1997, because it's a huuuuge spot now. In terms of midway size, this is likely the second largest fair in New Jersey after the Meadowlands.
Reithoffer Shows did the midway, and they basically brought their entire Orange Unit to this spot. Along with rides, food, and games, the fair had several shows including a circus show, pig racing, magic show, and a "Wall of Death" style motorcycle show. Wish I had a bit more time to get some video of the shows.

@@nexergutierrez8221 Did you go on The Beast? It looks like it would be a lot of fun, but I can't do swinging rides anymore.

Isn’t the orange unit Yo-Yo usually the slower of the two they have?

[@The_DoD3]

Not sure, this is the only fair I've ever seen it at so I don't have much to go by. They usually put it with the kiddie rides at this fair, so they might just run it slower to be more in line with the other kids rides.

[@artplaya0711]

@@The_DoD3 So you're saying the speed of the Yo-Yo can be controlled?

[@The_DoD3]

@@artplaya0711 I was speculating, but I had a look at the Yo-Yo operating manual and it doesn't look like it has a speed knob on the control panel, so there goes my theory. Haha...

[@artplaya0711]

@@The_DoD3 Well, I know Reithoffer has two Pharaoh's Furys (different boat colors) so, it's possible they have two Yo-Yos... Although they look identical, one runs faster than the other... I think the one that travels with the Chance Giant wheel is the faster one and the one with the Dutch wheel is the slower one

[@The_DoD3]

@@artplaya0711 Pretty sure they do have two. I had a look at some of my older videos and it seems like the only difference is that the Yo-Yo letters are lit in red on the blue unit while this one has white letters. I also noticed that the orange unit Yo-Yo was running pretty fast in my 2019 North Brunswick video.

[@antoniocognato5023]

Are these portable rides? The collapse and go to different towns?

[@The_DoD3]

Yep, they're all portable. Even the big ones like the Dutch Wheel and Beast.

[@antoniocognato5023]

No more sizzler?

[@The_DoD3]

They did have a Sizzler, but I didn't get much video of it. It does show up in the background at 14:06.
