Kennywood, located just outside Pittsburgh, PA is one of America's finest traditional amusement parks. I last visited in 1998 as a budding coaster enthusiast when Steel Phantom had loops. That ride has since been reimagined into Phantom's Revenge, and the park's added the Sky Rocket launched coaster, and Steel Curtain, an innovative multi-looping monster to stand alongside their historic trio of wood coasters. Plus, I have family in Pittsburgh, and it was great to catch up with them in addition to returning to this timeless gem.
Join me for my first-time reactions to Steel Curtain and Phantom's Revenge, as well as re-rides on the park's timeless classics and more!
