    Fun fact: there was a roller coaster here that survived Katrina and still operates today. It was called Batman: The Ride and it's a standard B&M inverted coaster with the normal Batman layout. It was shipped to Six Flags Fiesta Texas a few years after the storm and now goes by the name Goliath. It survived because the station was far enough above the water line.
