AP reporter interviewed me as I exited a roller coaster!

[BarryHom]

I was heading off the Ozark Wildcat up in Celebration City (in Branson, MO) and an AP reporter stopped to interview me about the coaster. They were taking photos and doing a report on the new wooden coaster. They saw my Florida Coaster Club shirt and pulled me aside. That was the highlight of my trip!

But I need everyone's help to locate this article. I did a Google search and I couldn't find it. The AP news website is confusing and I couldn't find a search for their archives. So can anyone help me to find this article? The first one that does gets all the air he or she can breathe!

Can't help with the article but I hope you find it. That's pretty cool.

What day was this? Do you know the name of the reporter?

 

[BarryHom]

It was on 7/16. I didn't get the name of the reporter. I should have!

I didn't find it yet, but I did find this which is pretty cool. But you prolly knew it was there. Barry was the only one that was quoted.

That's cool Barry, I looked around for a few minutes but I couldn't find anything either.

I hope you are able to locate it!

I'm wondering if maybe they haven't posted the story yet? While it is definitely a priority to us DISers, I was thinking that maybe they had to post other stories of higher priority (to the news guys anyway!) first, and on a slower news day maybe they'll use this one?

I'll keep an eye and ear out too though!
