OLDSTERS HOPE TO ROLL AWAY WITH ROLLER COASTER RECORD

OLDSTERS HOPE TO ROLL AWAY WITH ROLLER COASTER RECORD



DANIA BEACH, Fla. (Wireless Flash) – Thirty senior citizens are making tracks to Dania Beach, Florida, in hopes of setting a world’s roller coaster record. Next Wednesday, 30 oldsters between the ages of 64 and 84 will ride the Hurricane roller coaster in the hopes of becoming the world’s oldest roller coaster riders. Organizers estimate the combined age of the coaster coots will be around 2100 years and they plan to keep paramedics on duty just in case. Once the roller coaster record is set, organizers plan to start looking for some “very tall six and seven-year-olds” to set a “youngest coaster ride” record.
