hey, i dunno if anyone ever saw this before, but while at our new Super Wal-Mart in Lincoln, NE today, they have a candy store inside. There is a GB ride, its a fire truck, with Extreme Ghosbusters written on the side, and in the passenger seat is the ghost from the no-ghost logo. Has anyone else seen this? I'm 17 and I COULDN'T resist riding it, it was only a nickel!!

Never seen it before. Then again we don't have Wal*Marts in this part of NJ. (At least not yet) Is it possible to get a pic?
I wonder why it was a firetruck. The XGBs didn't use a firetruck. Maybe the store or the company that made the coin operated ride got confused. In the movie that was kinda a rip off of GBs, Evolution, those characters used a fire truck.

Spengs, consider yourself lucky then.
I've never seen this EGB ride before, SlimeTime. Sounds interesting. I'd probably ride it too.

Not lucky, we have Big K-Marts. We're getting a Wal*Mart in my town no less soon.
Anyway I would have at least taken a pic of the "ride." I'm a little old to ride something like that. (I think)

The Wal-Mart in Portage is being updated to a Super Wal-Mart....hmm, maybe we'll get it here! Probably not though because the ride there was probably put in at the time the show was aired (or not) I don't know...we'll probably get some stupid pokemon thing.

Around here, Wal-Marts reign supreme.
I haven't seen one yet, but if I'm taking my camera with me everytime I go to catch a glimpse of this sucker if we got one.
K?

YEah, I have the same ride at a local Toys R Us, I was surprised when I found the EGB logo on a fire truck ride. It is still there too, been there for like 4 years.

Sinister is correct. The extreme ghostbusters did use a fire truck, that they revamped and put the logo on, in back in the saddle part 2.
That sounds pretty awesome. Cant wait for the pics.

I see. Using a firetruck in Ghostbusters just isn't right.
