Say sayonara to deadly amoeba! Waco is back…
Do you dream of riding the pool in Waco, of shovelling all those ramps into your mouth during the one ninety-dollar, sixty-minute session?
BSR Cablepark was 2018’s shooting star.
It was a pool that did what no other pool on earth could do. It created ramps…and…tubes.
And then a New Jersey surfer died after he was”likely” infected by brain-eating amoeba at the Waco tank. The pool was closed so filters could be installed.
Fzzzzzz.
In three weeks, the park reopens, with the new filters to treat the tank’s four million litres of water. Instead of being dyed blue, the water will look like its been poured straight from Evian bottles, says the owner Stuart Parsons.
“Basically we’re making drinking water,” he says.
Of course, after the amoeba episode, after water samples taken by health officials found evidence of Naegleria fowleri and that exposure “likely occurred at the facility”, the park threw out a press release headlined, “WATER TESTS COME BACK CLEAN” and “BSR Determined to Go the Extra Mile, Set Highest Standards for Safety.”
So who knows if you’re going to be able to drink the pool juice.
Anyway, if you’re near the park, or you’re happy to jump a bird to Texas, bookings are open.
Ninety bucks for an hour or $2500 for the entire pool…or…twenty-five gees to eat up the park for the day with a one-hour break in the middle for everyone to down tools, inhale a well-earned margarita etc.
Grab eight of your pals and you’ll get the “expert” wave to yourselves for an hour for $810.
And if you wanna stay on site, BSR has poolside cabins that cost $249 to $475 a night.

Amoeba Death Lawsuit. Bitchin’ punk band
Anyone crunched the numbers for a week trip from Oz, 3 days in the tub, with an appropriate Texas sized per diem?
Maybe combine with a little tornado chasing in Oklahoma. Nice powder blue Lincoln continental Mk4.
Yep $1200 flights $500 accom/ car rental $500 at the pool $1k “tornado chasing”
Round it up to 4k with bail
thats alright.
Sorry read that as 3 days in the pub

Just cause this threads kinds dull…
Check out my postie Malones new tatt.
He showed me this morning while dropping off my latest dark Web package< https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
I’m frightened of that ‘hair.’
He’s a good sort!
Look old boy if you can upload a photo of you and Nick C holding hands I can get you a partner discount at the Ashley and Martin branch in Darlinghurst.
But if you want it done before Mardi Gras, could be a stretch.
I don’t think my agent would allow me to use my image in that manner.
He’s very protective and filters all my public output so I don’t make a complete tit of myself.
This is a good thing
My agent encourages said tittiness
I guess yours had the week off when you launched your moanfest
That’s the secret title of my new acoustic album!!! How did you know?!?!
Probly the same agent.
That scheming fucker.
That’ll explain why Gaga got the jump on my meat dress idea! Why John Lennon managed to write exactly the same song as me but released it first!! And why Joel Tudor stole my idea for a mashed up bong-water induced smiley face!!!
Sigh
You win,
Again. .. You can’t be beaten.. Like old Freddy merc.
Cheer up Bexy!
Go look at the rainbow cock picture again!
Share it with a loved ones!
Go find a random person in the street and share it with them too!
It’s sharing rainbow cock pictures that separates us from the mongrel racists!
Fuk you and your gays only racist laundromat
Everyone is welcome to decorate their cake as they see fit.
Damn… that’s some hardcore plumbing porn there.

That’d decimate some Texan grog bogs eh?
nah, you might need a yepoon sized plunger for that.
Haha! Queensland is surely our Texas!
That’s exactly the sort of comment I’d expect from a fuckwit plumber living in NZ.
Fuckwit illiterate nobody plumber I think was the term…
Apologies will likely be wasted on your ilk.
Nevertheless, I apologise because that’s what separates me from the mongrel races.
Why don’t they wack some salt in there for more buoyancy too?
It ain’t that much different.
But makes the hair look cool if ya got it.
From the looks of them filters…massive, should have just built a brewery…. you’d have a lot more friends!
Yeah, piss heads, great.
and make more money
The North Shore has Da Hui; wondering if the Waco pool will develop an equivalent. Maybe The Branch Davidians 2.0 or something? Lots of marketing opportunities i suspect.
There is certainly the opportunity for a small souvenir concession. https://uploads.disquscdn.c… https://uploads.disquscdn.c…
Sick band!!
