Jesus Saves - John 3:16

I was actually hired by these guys through Craigslist. These guys are con artists. The trash cans they buy from a local store and place around the event. One day they called me to clean the trash cans. I was wondering what was going on. I found out that they return the trash cans and get their money back. They charge you for everything. When and "if" you do go they may not have a face painter. My mom did face painting and you have to buy a ticket for $5 to get your face done. Just another way for them to make extra money. The bounce houses were in the 90+ degree weather and the poor kids were getting burning their hands and feet. I got in trouble for letting children that were between the age of 1-3 in the bounce houses. Why would the parents pay for children that are that young? Theyre not going to experience it the same way the older kids are. They treat most of their volunteer workers that they hire off of Craigslist poorly. Theres a clique between some of the workers there. One of the assistant managers told me I had to ask to use the bathroom. So I asked the manager and he said why are you telling me? I had someone cover my bounce house duties while I was gone but I still had to ask to use the restroom? I was working out in the blazing heat. No shade. Had to bring water. When you get a break they give you Little Caesars pizza. Which isnt the best quality. Im kinda surprised they dont make their workers buy their own lunch. Some of the pizza was knock off. Pretzel crust with nacho cheese sauce instead of red tomato sauce underneath. They hype everything up on the radio but its really not amazing like they make it sound. Beware, this traveling show is as bad as those carnies that rig the games. Youve been warned!

The website is so misleading. I was excited to take my nephew and my daughter to this - it is a complete money trap! All the equipment is dirty, filthy, and disgusting. Half of it is damaged, dinosaurs had foam nostrils picked off, missing limbs, etc. First you pay an arm and leg to get in, then basically everything you do is $5 each. You can "ride" a dinosaur for 1 minute.. for $5 additional dollars! You can also pop a balloon for a crappy prize, for $5 also! Oh, and go inside a huge ball and run a whopping 20 feet back and forth for 1 minute for.. you guessed it... $5!The balloon popping was scaring the younger ones. You can play in a small sandbox and dig up bones with bottle brushes (yes, the ones you clean bottles with), but there is practically no sand in the box and everything is dug up! If you want to get a souvenir to make it all worth it, you can spend $25 for a plastic dinosaur that looks like it was made for the dollar store. I am extremely disappointed! I spent $95 for myself, my 2 year old daughter, and 4 year old nephew - thats admission (65), tickets (20), and food (10, two hot dogs, two drinks). My 2 year old couldnt do anything but the bounce houses - which was a whole 5 minutes of fun. I wish I would have seen these reviews before we went. Facebook offers rave reviews, but I dont know where this is coming from! There is no "education" offered, there is not much to learn - it is like a dinosaur carnival. All the workers are volunteers paid with admission tickets and $100 cash - and they could not care any less about what they do! Do not go! Save your money!

T-REX PLANET -review- Dont normally do this, but its a MUST!! So not worth it!!! Please DO NOT DECEIVE the hard working people of Broome County by charging them so much money for such a low quality event!!!!! It was a total waist of money !!! Im glad I only paid for 1 kid !! Deff overly priced! And not nearly as awesome as the commercials made it sound! It looked like a run down dinosaur circus came to town and threw something together inside a random garage!!! The pictures and the event showed it was indoors and it was a HUGE MUDDY disaster! The kids couldnt go on the bounce house for a couple of hours ... No one knew if it was going to be re-opened later.... Once it did open it was full of brown muddy water....The "riding of the dinosaurs" (which you had to pay an extra $5 on top of the $42 entrance for 1 adult & child. was more like those 25 cent rides you pay for in front of the super market.... All they did was nod their heads left 2 right... The facility was poorly lit and had random junk everywhere and looked unkept... There was even random plastic and garbage behind the "Rock Band" which consisted of 3 dinosaurs singing like what you would see @ ChuckECheese ....there were NO activities where the children could pet ANY dinosaurs and the "fossil display" was just an oversized sandbox with maybe 3-4 toilet looking brushes for the kids to "dig up" the run down plastic bones with... Not enough dollar store brushes for all the kids to play with

*I originally posted this review on their Facebook page where it was promptly deleted and I was blocked from commenting. WHAT A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT! After paying $90 for my family to enjoy a day of dinosaurs, I expected more than a bunch of cheap looking animatronic displays with signs I could barely read. Then we walked through to the fun stuff... paying $5 for a two minute Power Wheels ride after how we much spent to get in a was RIDICULOUS. Or I could let my kids fight their way into a handful of bounce houses that had a thick film of dirt. So exciting! Or watch a show in the "theater" which was a bunch of folding chairs pointed towards a sheet on PVC pipes. Or play in a pile of sand with a bunch of Dollar Store shovels. How fun! Not to mention every volunteer working the event looked absolutely miserable and were even less helpful. This was a colossal waste of money and Ill be spreading news of my experience anywhere I can. If youre going to charge that much for entry, everything inside better be free. Or at the very at least, make the dinosaurs to scale. Or parents get in free. My list of suggestions and complaints about this experience is endless.

Not worth what you have to pay. We were very disappointed. It costed $65 dollars for me and my wife to take my daughter. At 1st we were ok with the price because the website said they had rides. Once we got there it took 10-15 min tops to see the dinosaur exhibit. Then we make it to the rides and the sign at each ride said it requires 1 ticket. The website did not say the rides were not included with the entry fee. So I go to see how much tickets are and they are $5 a piece or 5 for $20. So I have to shell $20 more now were up to $85. And were 20 minutes in. So my daughter wants to ride the large dinosaur first. She get on and it last 36 seconds for $5. This is crazy. I have video for proof of time. Then she rides 4 smaller rides. Now were about 1 hr in at this time for $85. Now she wants to go to the gift shop. They are selling plastic dinosaurs for $75 that u can buy for $20 at Walmart. So she picks a small stuffed dinosaur for $15 that u could buy elsewhere for $5-10. So we spent $100 for 1 1/2 hrs. We will never be back. For the record our daughter did have fun but for that kind of money we could have went somewhere else for a full day of fun.
