This sucks .. I just saw on the news that Astroworld is going to be closed at the end of this (2005) season. It has been in operation for like 35+ years.uhh to make it slightly on topic .. I guess we won't be having a road trip to Astroworld now.

Wow. Crazy. That place has been a Texas fixture my whole life. Went to to it as a little kid, and lived about a mile from it from 95-99.Couldn't find any information about it, though. Only thing I found was that the parent company, Six Flags, is putting itself up for sale.
