Dark Side of the Horse by Samson for August 15, 2023

In panel 4, Melody sees Horace on a horse that’s moving up and down, and misinterprets it.

Arousel. With a c in front of it.

Same ride, turned up to 11.

Call it whatever you want.

I will never call it anything else.

hey, I like that. :D

I think I’ve been on that ride. Or was the Tilt-A-Whirl?

The horses keep going round and round and up and down and round and round … it’s a Horse Tornado!

Will I catch up to you? (♪♫)

marketing ..

Bet you could easily sneak on without a ticket…!

Must be that new ride… it spins so fast you lose your pants, and the bottom drops down!

Euclid Beach Amusement Park in Ohio

Nice spin!

HORSENADO!

It does make it sound more adventurous!

And from that day forward, they were no longer known as Carousels… or Merry-Go-Rounds.

“HORSENADO!” – soon to be a minor motion picture.

I’m totally calling it that the next time I ride with my kiddos.

A carousel sounds too wimpy for Horace.

Horace has a firm line between fun and terror for carnival rides.

“Ive been up, and down, and around, and around, and back again… (Thank you, Jim Croce!)”

Love it!

I could see Sine flying alongside in their dipping waves.

Honestly, I can totally imagine a carnival ride called a “Horse Tornado”. And now that I’ve imagined it I want to ride it.

Horse Tornadoooo!!!
