Kennywood isn't a big corporate mega park. Thank god for that.\n\nWhat does Kennywood have that the corporate parks don't?\n-Affordable admissions prices\n-Quality park food and affordable prices (Potato Patch, hello?)\n-A fun atmosphere that isn't dominated by arbitrary \""rules\"" and \""policies\""\n-Classic rides that you can't find anywhere else\n\nKennywood doesn't have the most roller coasters, but who cares? The rides that the park does have are downright fun. Seriously, have you ever been on a wooden coaster at Cedar Point or Kings Island? OUCH!\n\nIf you want to pay for a close-in parking space, that's cool; if not, that's OK too. At Kennywood, you can bring your own picnic lunch INTO the park. Unlike the corporate parks, I never feel like I'm being gouged or taken advantage of while inside the gates.\n\nThis park has stood the test of time and it remains one of the best in America. I'll happily skip every Six Flags and Cedar Fair owned park on my way to get to Kennywood.
