The Fun of the Fair

‘What if one of them throws up?’ Ray laughed and we both took a step back.

‘Do we have to go on that?’ I grimaced. The people above had now become a continuous blur of colour.

‘Come on, where’s your sense of adventure?’

‘It’s still on the waltzers with its head between its knees,’ I replied. ‘There’s some nice pedalo’s over there.’ I pointed to a lake in the centre of the park.

Ray turned to look just in time. Vomit cascaded down and hit the floor hard, splashing onto his shoes.

He looked up at me and grinned. ‘Pedalo?’

  1. I always loved these carousels, but never thought about vomit raining from the sky. Eek. That takes the fun out of the fair quickly. I did enjoy the story, though. 🙂

  2. There are always those ones who shouldn’t go on the spinney things but do anyway! As I get older, I’m not so found of these. I’ll stick to the roller coasters!

  3. I’ve seen that too…the vomit…from one of the riders. Its usually when they get off but I’ve also seen it while they are on the ride. I used to work at an amusement park. I’ve seen lots of stories there.
