My mom used to have a record of the Banana Splits when she was young. when my sis and I were little, we would insist that she play it so we could dance around. I loved it! Also, if you remember the episode where the Brady Bunch goes to the amusement park (the one where Mike loses the draft plans or something or another), the Banana Splits are at the park and present in a lot of the episode.

This word also has a underground meaning once you break it down. Let’s take “Bonn” for example and it actually turns into the word “Bone”. We all know gays use this word to describe the action of when they are fecal fisting their Cuban cabana boy at their sex bath house parties. Now let’s look at Roo, “Roo” is short for “Kangaroo”.So put the full true message together and you get“Bone a Kangaroo
on the same line of thought as Banana Splits...another early 70s Saturday morning staple....
the creators of this, Sid and Marty Krofft, had a theme park in the top level of what is today CNN center in Atlanta. you rode the escalator WAAAAY up to the top and then immersed in tripdom for a couple hours. One of the attractions was a giant pinball machine ride in which you rode inside a pinball...sensory overload anyone???
anyway, when finishing you could then ice skate on the lower level of the building. Those were the days!!!
I'm telling you, it made for a great corn-enriched field trip back in high school.
HR Pufnstuf is a little more trippy than the Banana Splits. I mean, a talking, gold, magical flute? Really? I also suggest checking out "Lidsville" starring the kid that played Peter Brady and Charles Nelson Reilly. It was a land of talking hats.
zenfnp, I'm intrigued by this Sid and Marty Krofft themepark.... I want to research this now!

I think it was called "the World of Sid and Marty Krofft" - how I have wished over the years that it or something similar would re-open! I don't know what happened to the Krofft boys...I suppose I should look it up.
I'm really showing my age here...lol. I graduated from HS in 1976 (but I was only 16, gimme a break...lol) and I remember going as a senior and during the year after graduation. It seems like it was only open for a very few years, although it was always busy when I went
What I found said it was only open for 6 months. Not sure how true that is.
Sid and Marty Krofft were last working on the movie "Land of the Lost" with Will Ferrell and Kenny Powers, which totally bombed. (I saw it, it was pretty bad.) I hope that doesn't discourage them from making an HR Pufnstuf movie.
no, no one played the pinball machine...that would have been too cool, I agree. It sort of went on a predetermined track. But there were bumpers, paddles, lights, and all the typical pinball noises..since my first ride, I have never looked at another pinball machine again without imagining that I could be inside of it.
I do think it was open for longer than 6 months, but I could be mistaken. Time does seem to get distorted after so many years. I think its a coping mechanism for trying to avoid aging.
