   Anyone that grew up any where close to Tulsa remembers Bell's. I spent some time at Bell's when I was young didn't have much money back in those days. But Bell's was always a fun place to go. I hope they find a place to bring Bell's back to stay for the younger people of Tulsa County.

   Instead of going to prom, SHS '74, my best friend and I went to Bell's, had a great time. We went to countless company picnics there when my kids were growing up. Would be great to have Bells back, but would have to have the putt putt.

   Its not even the same fair with out Bell's. Tulsa screwed up when they let Bell's go. I think they should go out onto the River parks.

   Bell's got the shaft by Randi Miller. I would donate my time to help rebuild Zingo. Mr. Bell hired high school drop-outs to build the famous roller coaster back in the summer of '68 if meory serves. Every kid went back and graduated after finding out what life would be like without that high school diploma. The Bell family has touched so many live's. I wish them the very best of luck.

   I remember going to Bell's Amusement park with my dad as a little kid, now I have my own child and would love to share that experience with her. I am so glad Bell's is opening up again. :)

   To me the "Tulsa State Fair" just isn't "The Fair" anymore without Bell's Amusement Park. If you were at one end of "The Fair" and wanted to go to Bell's, you got on the SkyRide and there you were at the other end.
