Location of the "Greyhound" rollercoaster at the Lakewoods Fairgrounds. This was a very rickety old wooden coaster that thrilled and terrified riders for many years. Portions of the coaster can be seen in the background during closing scenes of Burt Reynolds flik Smokey & The Bandit. Demolished sometime in the early 1980s.
