As a part of the early years of the park celebrating Halloween with special events, they hosted the "King Kong Encounter", which featured a giant inflatable at the Big Wheel. The King Kong figure had been part of the 50th anniversary celebration for the original movie in 1983, and was attached to the top of the Empire State Building. A platform was constructed on top of the Big Wheel queue, and the giant balloon was tied down to the railings. Kong was visible up and down Dream Street. As part of the King Kong Encounter, the park's King Kong Photo backdrop and giant hand were moved across the park from their regular location near the entrance to the Western Section.   |
