Comments: i got to go to legend city when i was a kid once or twice we lived in buckeye so dad didnt want to make the drive very often. always enjoyed it because wallace and ladmo were there
does anyone remember the wallace and ladmo drive ins. i was always buggin my dad to take us there but he never would. i think he drove by them on purpose just to irritate me
anyway wall boy and ladmo and gerald were a big part of my life . i never missed them on tive
i was talkin to this guy on yahoo messenger who convinced me to pay his 87 cable bill in return for copies of all the wallace and ladmo show. he ran a wallace and ladmo group
needless to say i never saw the movies,. kinda *issed me off since he was the leader of the group on yahoo. hidenchief was his yahoo nick i think he managed apts and did photography and security work a this apt complex he live at
anyway legend city was great

Comments: I took my first girlfriend on our first date to LC, it was great fun, our first kiss was on the sky ride, I will never forget it (1969). Thanks for putting the site together it was a lot of work but it is part of our history here in Phoenix, I was born here in 1953, saw Wall boy and Ladmo a couple of times there, it was a very happy time in our city and our country. I think sometimes the people who had the idea to build LC just were to early. Remember the population back in the 60s was what, 600,000 people or so. Just not enough people and when kids and parents are on vaction (the summer time), who wants to come to Phoenix! Anyway, bring backs the summer nights of Phoenix in the 60s!

Comments: For at least 6 summers in the early 1970s we traveled from Sierra Vista to Phoenix for a week long vacation. We stayed at hotels on Van Buren, yes Van Buren, and went to the Wax Museum, rode go-carts, played mini-golf, did Big Surf and always went to Legend City before going home.

Comments: Hi I grew up watching the Wallace and Ladmo show too, it was the only thing that I wanted to do after school when I was a little kid and I loved it. I really miss it, I miss them both. Crazy as it sounds when my son was 2 years old he was in a commercial with Ladmo for water safety. It was in the backyard of a house. I lost the video that was made. Can anyone tell me where I might to be able to find it. My son is now 21 and I would like to show it to him. Thank you in advance..VERY MUCH. I can be reached at kellylg222@msn.com
please put Ladmo in the subject line. Thank you,

Comments: I was the manager of the 2nd issue of Legend City stock. The first issue sold out, and they needed more money. They started a 2nd issue at $1 a share, and I was the sales manager of that issue. We sold enough stock to complete the construction and make a succesful opening. They had a little cabin where they could make water flow upstream. I was talking to the guy that built and ran it, and he told me the construction to prove water could run upstream was so complicated when designing it he fell out of bed three times!

Comments: The last time I was at Legend City was for a concert. Jackson Brown & Jimmy Buffet, I think. We walked through the vacant park, we had to sneak past some barriers, but it was so sad that it was no longer functioning as an amusement park.

I know it's hot here in summer, but seems like they could open it in the fall, winter and spring and still be it operating.They needed lots of trees for shade. I wish I was super rich. I would open up another park for all to enjoy here in are beautiful city. We need some entertainment. Not much to do here in the valley. Miss Legend City :((.

Comments: I was born in '61 in Phoenix, and while looking at the photos of the rides was very confused at my own memories?! Maybe my mom didn't take me to LC when I was young-I don't know, but I have NO memory of alot of the boat rides, the sky ride, the cars?! I remember broken down rides (lost Dutchman) and rides that were closed and more of the carnival/fair rides. I remember that huge roller coaster...something Mouse?! I LOVED that ride and it was probably to blame for my love of the thrill of coasters to this day! lol I lost my dad at age 8 and things may have been too tight for me to go when I was younger and LC was in it's glory....I saw enough of the "end" to feel bad each time I went and witnessed the deterioration as there wasn't money for upkeep. Strange how we just kept going though, lol! Thanks for this site! D. Angle

We would go out afterwork for pizza at Aurelios in Scottsdale or to Red Devil in Phx. Those were great times. I grew up less than a mile from LC and spent many of my birthday celebrations there. We didn't care if it was July, we had a great time no matter how hot and muggy it was. Sharing these memories with my son about LC made it much easier using this site.

Comments: Back in the summer of 1966, I was the Music Director of
KRUX and we helped to promote the Smash Back to School Blast that was held at
Legend City.  Lesley Gore, who wrote and recorded It's My Party was our
headliner.  She arrived at Sky Harbor.  In front of the terminal were a couple
of vehicles and a Limo for her.  My car was there too.  A brand new 1966 Bright
Yellow Corvette.  I parked my car behind the limo there in the front of the
terminal.  When she came out, she was told the Limo was for her.  It didn't take
long for her to say, I will go in that car!  Pointing at my corvette.  No one
argued with her.  I didn't mind a bit.  So in Lesley Gore got into the passenger
seat with KRUX Good Guy Norm Seeley driving her out to Legend City.  I don't
know how she got around after the show, but from that day forward, my car was
referred to as The Lesley Gore Vette. -- Norm Seeley (former Music Director KRUX
1966)

Comments: Legend City holds a lot of great childhood memories for me -now 58 yrs old. I hated to see it torn down. I remember a promotion one time that anyone whose hair was longer than Alice Cooper's could get in free. I don't think anyone did.

Comments: I went there on my first official date. It was a fun place to go to. East High Yearbook staff went there on have their pic taken because the yearbook was called Legend.

Comments: I was born at Good Samaritin hospital. Lived in Scottsdale as a baby.We moved to paradise valley soon after. My folks moved us to San Diego in 1968. I had forgotten about Legend City until I googled Wallace and Ladmo. This was a link. I have some vague memories of the park because I was so young. But I remember The Lost Dutchman mine and just the feeling of de javu. Same with old Tucson. thanks, wish I could be of more help. Cool memory though, thanks!

Comments: What a great site ! I know so many people that when you mention Legend City have no idea what I am talking about. I have very fond memories of going there with my dad when I spent weekends with him. Am so glad I have these memories and this site reminded me of alot of them. Thanks to who ever put this site together, great job !

Comments: Wow,
this certainly brought me back to my childhood! I spent many weekends hanging
out at Legend City with my best friend David. This park had huge influences on
our lives as it kept us out of a lot of trouble. I can remember riding the Lost
Dutchman Mine ride over and over again. I remember those days when Wallace and
Ladmo would perform and they would have free admission in addition to the
possibility of winning a prize! That was the true Phoenix and this site should
be preserved forever. Thank you so much for taking me back to found memories!

Comments: I remember going to Legend City as a teen in the late '70's, especially the time I threw up on the Tilt-a-Whirl. Good times!

Comments: What fun. Randy and Leslie, AKA Ronnie, pretty much said it all. As I was never banned from the park as Leslie was, I have very fond memories. Thanks for the site. Terry
