Dads, we see you β€οΈ Thanks for showing up for the big moments and the little ones. β£
β£
The extra ride. The "one more time." The "come with me, Dad."β£
β£
Here's to the memories they'll talk about long after they've outgrown the ride. Like squeezing into the back of the police truck on Big Wheelin' so your daughter didn't have to ride alone. We know she'd rather ride with Dad anyway.β£
β£
Grab your tickets for Father's Day and come make some memories of your own on the Pier ππ‘ β£

One day they'll be taller, stronger, and have kids of their own.β£
β£
But years from now, they'll still remember Dad hanging on just a little longer because they were watching β€οΈβ£
β£
Some of the best memories aren't measured in seconds. They're made right here in the Midway on #PleasurePier
