History
Steamin' Demon was the first major ride, and the first roller coaster, built after Storytown USA changed its name to the Great Escape. Previously, the coaster was located at Pontchartrain Beach and was named the Ragin’ Cajun. Currently, it is sponsored by Polly-O string cheese, particularly their twisted variety, which mimics the ride in that respect.
