Six Flags Fiesta Texas saw an unprecedented $30 million expansion for the 1999 season. This included multiple roller coasters, such as Poltergeist, several flat rides and children's rides and the iconic Lone Star Lagoon Texas-shaped wave pool. Join us for another episode in the Fiesta Texas Flashback Series, which takes a look at the largest expansion in Six Flags Fiesta Texas history.

After being acquired by Six Flags, Inc. in the 90s, Fiesta Texas underwent several yearly expansions to provide a well-rounded theme park experience. These included the addition of four marquee roller coasters from 1997 to 2000, several children's and flat rides, new waterpark attractions and more. Join us as we navigate the 2000 season and look at the two coasters that never happened.

The Joker's Revenge, a steel Vekoma Hurricane coaster, called Six Flags Fiesta Texas home from 1996 to 2001 (SBNO in 2002). Standing 79 feet tall, The Joker's Revenge reached speeds of 40 miles per hour and also featured 3 inversions. The roller coaster was eventually transported to Six Flags New Orleans in 2003 where it operated as The Jester. What is the status of the former Joker's Revenge roller coaster today?
