The land used by Raging Bull was formerly occupied by Rolling Thunder, a bobsled roller coaster which arrived in 1990 from Six Flags Great Adventure but was later relocated in 1996 to The Great Escape & Splashwater Kingdom in Queensbury, New York.ThemeRaging Bull is named after a ferocious beast that terrorized the citizens of the old Southwest Territory until they fled the town and built the courtyard and mission seen today.
