Do you have ticket prices for the 1950's?
That is all we have at this time. If you have details of historic records from that time, please let us know.
Why did admission prices go up every single year? Is inflation an ongoing thing that never stops or reverses? But 2023 it went down, but then up again this year. There are parks out there like Knoebel's that don't charge for admission or parking, and aren't fenced. But parks that are fenced and charge admission if you attempt to sneak in without paying they will get security to deal with you and might even call the police.
