You go upside down how many times?!? The Corkscrew roller coaster was the first scream machine to span a midway and the world's first triple-looping coaster. After a ride on the twisted track of Corkscrew, riders get off wondering which way is up! Built during America's Bicentennial year of 1976, this proud ride showcases its red, white and blue colors as it glides over spectators standing in awe and amazement on the midway below. In 24 years, more than 46.8 million guests have gone head-over-heels on Corkscrew.
