This wasn't the first coaster I ever rode, but it was the first one I ever loved.

I went on this ride when it first came out in 84 . I was very impressed & loved how fast you felt you were traveling & how smooth a ride it was, also how close to the water you get on the turn. I bought the t- shirt for the ride with the picture of an insane looking wolf with huge fangs !!! I live in Flordia now & have a year round pass for Tampa Busch Gardens since down here you can go on rides all year round. I still have that T-shirt & it still fits, I worn it at the Tampa Busch Gardens in 2007 & everyone was asking where that ride is in the park in Tampa & had to explain that this is in Williamsburg Virginia !!!!!!

Yes. Sadly, Big Bad Wolf is officially now a defunct roller coaster. After my visit to Busch this past weekend, I learned more about why the Big Bad Wolf has closed. Read more about why the park decided to close it and see a video of the final train in this post: A Legend Reaches Its Expiration Date

I just heard about the closing today. What a shame. It was a fun coaster, and the first one my daughter ever rode.

It is the final day so I'll post my review.

The pre-lift is fun, and you feel kind of high up. The first lift is short, but in the back seat, you are yanked over. The sharp corners are awesome, and very forceful, especially compared to another beast at CP. The final drop- just epic. The trn afterwards is so forceful that the transition afterwards threw me forewards. The final turn towards the station is the 2nd best part of the ride. I was almost 90 degrees going twenty mph. The ride is sort of rough, with the occasional headbang, but I'll take the intensity over Dragging Iron's smoothness.

9/10- Great ride, sad to see it go.
