I discovered today that there is a whole enthusiast scene for theme parks, with detailed reviews and history videos on Youtube. What was the last niche you got into? (dormi.zone)

Here is the video about the Disney Studios in France, the "worst Disney park ever": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgM4R997h-I

There are even roller coaster credits that people can hunt: https://coaster-count.com/

I learnt about this theme park stuff when I learned there was a Hershey's theme park and went to YouTube to see what it was like. Pretty interesting that Hershey's built a theme park for their office town.

It's actually a pretty good park. Was surprised at quality of rides. I'm not a coaster enthusiast but it felt like they had a big variety.

They keep a decent variety, and the tour of how chocolates made can be a treat for kids. Especially when the smell really hits.

The stadiums an alright venue, too. Went to see a few shows there growing up. The big one I remember was Journey and Def Leppard, people were surprisingly hyped. This was shortly after Journey replaced the lead singer, so I think that was part of it.
