What To Expect

Fort Hays Old West Town and Dinner Show

Take a ride on the one of a kind Buffalo Hunt Roller Coaster! This unique shooting gallery coaster is a unique opportunity to be able to tell your friends and family back home that you shot a buffalo while on vacation in South Dakota. Of course its a fake fiberglass buffalo, but you don't have to tell them that if you don't want to.... Soar over the herd of over 20 buffalo and shot at over 40 targets through out the coaster and hit at many targets as you can. Its extremely challenging since you are swinging in the air side to side while trying to aim. When you get off the coaster you will have a score that tells you how you did. Think you are good enough to make the all time high score? There is only one way to find out! Ticket give access to Fort Hays Dances With Wolves Film Set. Supper and Show Ticket sold separately.

The ride was fun if you’re tall, you might feel a little scared of your feet hitting the wall however, for the price, it was well worth it and the memory card they give you that’s awesome. The staff was very courteous.

We didn’t know what to expect. We are older than most riders and probably not the crowd that it was intended for. We had a good laugh and made fun memories.
