Santa Clara Whizzer
After Marriott sold California's Great America to the city of Santa Clara under management of the Kings Entertainment Company, the Whizzer continued to operate until it was subsequently demolished in 1988. A few cement footers still remain, outlining the spot where the ill-fated Whizzer once stood. After the Whizzer was initially demolished, the station remained standing for years until Xtreme Skyflyer (upcharge attraction) was built on the Whizzer's former site in the late 1990s.
