Once again, it's my fascination of rides getting stuck. This one did not happen in Texas, however, the Zipper ride is still a one of the most popular carnival rides in the Country. The above photo was posted to the Ventura County Sheriff's Department Facebook page. According to the post, all of the riders were rescued within 30 minutes of the first 911 calls. No injuries were reported.




Let's start by saying they do not offer all-you-can-ride wristbands at the Rodeo Houston Carnival.  Each ride required tickets.  For the 2024 Rodeo Houston Carnival, the ticket prices are $.50 each and rides require at least 9 to 22 tickets to ride. Which means it will cost from $4.50 to $11 for EACH RIDE.

HERE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES: (updated prices 2024)

The Alien Abduction (Gravitron) takes 12 tickets($6 to ride)

Rodeo Houston means lots of people!  However, there is one point every evening when the crowds look OVERWHELMING! That is right after the concerts let out and it might give some people a little anxiety! Jas posted this video to Tiktok...
