Imagine getting to the theme park you\u2019d been dreaming of going to since you were a child, only to find out that it\u2019s closed for maintenance from an animatronic moose. You\u2019d be devastated. You may even punch that moose.<\/p>\n
Now imagine this park was in a place called Buxton, Minn. (not a real place), and you\u2019ve been trying to go every year since 2015. Every time you go, it\u2019s closed for maintenance. Eventually, your desire to visit dissipates, since it always ends in disappointment.<\/p>\n
