Evil Knievel planning a theme park?

I read it in an article today, on AOL News.

"For Knievel, the project would mean free publicity - something the 1970s daredevil never shies from - and getting the word out for a Knievel theme park being planned along the California-Nevada line."

"The project" is a stretch of road in Butte, Montana featuring Evil's memoribilia, etc. Don't believe me? AOL users, click on AOL News. The name of the article is "Evel Knievel, Montana City Try to Recapture Glory Days"

What do you guys think?
Where along the CA/NV border will it be?

Buffalo Bill's Casino, which has Desporado, is on the CA/NV border. It'd probably be somewhere near there.

This sounds like a park with major possibilities, but limited funding. Where are they getting their money from?

Hmmmmm...

Does any one see Canyon Jump as a viable coaster? :D

What an interesting park that would be.

I don't know if I would want to go on any possible coasters there. He's one guy who seemed to get into a lot of accidents. I don't know how safe his coasters would be...lol

Yeah, I wonder if he will have BASEBALL BAT: THE RIDE.
That one's guaranteed to be a head banger. Evel's old news; I doubt he could open a lemonade stand.

Finally The Leap the Gap coaster will be made. Not Safe.

In future news Evil Kenivals Super Theme Park opens at noon 2/2/02 which a record attendance of 5000 people

Its 2 o clock and its time for weekend update. EKSTP has lost his attendance. Resouces say the reason is because everyone is dead.
