We had some cousins down there, and we would go to Six Flags over Texas during the summer.

Growing up, I always had fantasies and dreams of Disney.
Disneyland just because there were all of these like distinct worlds, Frontierland, Fantasyland.
And when I was growing up, because I didn't get to go to all of these places, I actually created a theme park myself.
I had this park that was called... Like in your mind?
I created in my mind and then I drew it all out.
So the park was called Fun World and... Great name.
Can't wait to go.
The founder of the park was HG Fun.
And so this is all very, a lot of Disney theft here.
But I do recall, like, I created the park map, all of the rides, and then I drew out a number of the rides in the park, too.
This is amazing.
