Description
The Zippin Pippin rollercoaster is one of the oldest existing wooden rollercoasters in the United States. Built in 1912, it was originally located in East End Park in Midtown. It was moved to Montgomery Park (later known as the Mid-South Fairgrounds) and in 1976 Libertyland Amusement Park was constructed around the existing rollercoaster. In 2010, the rollercoaster was sold and moved to Green Bay, Wisconsin.
