Amusement Park Riders Get Stuck in the Air for Hours

Yet another reason to not go to a place called “Knott’s Berry Farm.”

To be clear, I know nothing about Knott's Berry Farm, and I’m not going to Google it to find out what it is. I’m just going to assume it’s an actual berry farm, because if it wanted to be a proper amusement park, they would have said that in the name.

Anyway, this berry farm apparently has rides. Unfortunately, they don’t work too good, as 22 riders learned on a recent trip. According to CBS News, riders on the “Sol Spin” (so they don’t even name the rides after berries?) were met with a surprise when the ride suddenly stopped midair — and stayed stopped for two and a half hours.

The park says it’s still investigating what happened, but just to be safe, I’d only go to Knott’s Berry Farm for the berries for the time being (presuming they actually have them).
