A Little boy and his father walk up the street on a brisk, yet cool Fall evening from a new Town House, just built in the area, after a hearty dinner, this five year old looks at the Fun House and then asks his daddy: "Dad, what was that over there?!?" His father grunts out loud then responds: "Son, I'm not too sure, we never did get over there too much". |

STATEN ISLAND FUNHOUSE UPDATE
|
| Time, as always, marches on. Since this article was published in 2001, the Funhouse has closed. The equipment was sold to a private owner and is not for sale. If and when the ride is put back into service, we'll post a full report in The Laff Track. |
