Developers of Texas dinosaur theme park trying to double its land size - Houston Chronicle

I seriously doubt this thing ever gets built. And even if it does, is sounds like its going to flop. I'm hearing very few details about roller coasters and rides. It sounds like one of those places you would go once and never go again.

The thing was a boondoggle. The reporter who wrote this story ought to be fired for helping promote Contour who are nothing but scam artists.

Waiting for a few 'new posters' to discuss this.

Wasn't the last developer essentially run out of that area for what could loosely be called embezzlement? Just using the 'grant funding' to travel around the world to 'survey' other parks?

Wow, what a great idea. I need to submit a proposal for a huge park and get some funding for this summer. It would be great to be paid to take my family to a bunch of cool parks around the world with Montgomery tax payers picking up the tab. I wonder if Waller County might fall for this?
