back when I lived in Carbondale, some friends and my wife and daughter went to Holiday World because I scored 6 free tickets through my job. We all had no idea what it was, we just knew it was in Santa Claus, Indiana which was in the middle of nowhere. We were totally blown away by how fun and cheap the entire experience was, we stayed open to close and had an amazing time. They have(supposedly) two of the top 10 wood rollercoasters in the states, and they were really fun. Plus the waterpark was top notch.
