    This is why you shouldn't let your kids ride summer carnival rides

    Take them to a real amusement park like Six Flags or Disney where there are some safey protocols, not the local county fair where the rides are put together by carnies and local teenagers.

    Carnival ride operator arrested after 3-year-old falls

    May 16, 2004, 12:44 PM EDT


    MANCHESTER, Conn. -- The operator of a carnival ride was drunk when a three-year-old fell off and injured himself, police said.

    The boy was on the "Yo-Yo" swing ride around 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the Coleman Brothers carnival at the Manchester Parkade when he fell from the swing, landing on concrete pavement.

    He was taken to the Hartford Hospital, where he was treated for cuts and abrasions and released at 11 p.m.

    Ride operator Kenneth Manachio, 34, of Bristol was under the influence of alcohol and uncooperative with investigating officers, police said.

    He was arrested and charged with reckless endangerment in the first and second degrees, risk of injury to a minor and interfering with police. He is being held on a $50,000 bond.

    Officials shut down the ride pending an investigation.

              Gee .. Who'd have ever thought that inbred social retards being paid minimum wage (or less) and working 12+ hours a day could be irresponsible.

              Everytime I see people strapping their children in to mall parking lot Ferris wheels, I just snicker and think to myself "Natural Selection".

                  jesus christ!!!!

                  those places that setup in parking lots for a week or 2 at a time are not the safest compared to real amusement parks.

                  on top of that the guy working it is pissed drunk

                  hope that kid is alright

                              That shit is fucked up
                              SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

                                      Damn. I miss the fair. I mean, where would the fun have been if all the carnies weren't drunk running Sizzler too fast...or if there was all kinds of safety precautions on the squeezy old Paratrooper thing spinning up in the trees?

                                      Haha. It is natural selection. It's also just the fair...you have to live a little.

                                          i almost died on a carnival ride last year. it was the ride where it takes about 10 people up in the air and the releases them at any given time and plumets to the ground.

                                          when the guy hit the 'release', we heard a loud a cable snapping and thank god the reserve cable kept us from crashin into the ground. fuck carnies and their rides.
