One of the park's many attractions was a 3,000-foot wooden roller coaster called The Wild Cat, which was built in 1929. The state-of-the-art, three-minute ride was hailed by roller coaster connoisseurs across the country. The Wild Cat was designed by Herbert Paul Schmeck, who held 100 patents for roller coaster innovations. In 1984, The Wild Cat was still ranked among the top 10 roller coasters in the world.
