Sitting behind a couple of nuns at a baseball game, whose headgear partially blocked the view, three men decided to badger the nuns in an effort to get them to move.
In a very loud voice, the first guy said, “I think I’m going to move to Utah, there are only 100 nuns living there.”
The second guy spoke up and said, “I want to go to Montana, there are only 50 nuns living there.”
The third guy said, “I want to go to Idaho, there are only 25 nuns living there.”
One of the nuns turned around, looked at the men, and in a very sweet, calm, voice said, “Why don’t you go to hell. There aren’t any nuns there.”
An amusement five hundred thirty-nine years strong… unless the Danes temporally closed it in the late 1910s, early 1940s, and in 2020 and 2021 for respectively Spanish flu, the Second Ward War, and COVID,
Bakken didn’t open as an amusement park (obviously, since the concept didn’t exist yet), but as a popular natural spring. The spring drew crowds, which brought in performers and peddlers looking for an audience, which brought in more crowds, until the whole situation got big enough that those with business in the area got organized to keep the area clean and well-managed. There were a few decades in the middle of this process when the area was closed off and kept as private recreational grounds by the Danish royal family, and it wasn’t until “recently” (the early 1900s) that they installed any of the rides we generally associate with these parks.
Make-A-Wish was very popular with kids who wanted to go hunting and shoot and kill Bambi. I think they may have stopped granting those sorts of wishes. But I could be wrong.
I believe the proper name for the park is Dyrehavsbakken. And not only do the Danes have the oldest park they also have the third oldest park, Tivoli Gardens. Also they have the oldest ruling monarchy in Europe.

Yes, don’t badger your honey, especially if she has a flabby neck.

Looks like Bakken has a few years on Lake Compounce (Located in Connecticut, the USA’s oldest operating amusement park, opened in 1846).

My nephew chose a Nascar race for his “Make a Wish.” The drivers all ignored him, but he said their crews were all very nice.
