New York Trivia Tuesday

Coney Island is famous for being a popular weekend getaway for New Yorkers wanting some beach time and crazy rides. As Yogi Berra once said, "Nobody goes to Coney Island anymore. It's too crowded."

But some other coasters weren't so lucky. What was the name of the Coney Island roller coaster that predated the Cyclone, but has since been torn down?

a) the Hurricane
b) the Thunderbolt
c) the Twister
d) the Earthquake

Check back on Thursday for the answer to this week's trivia question!
