St. Louis Amusement Park Pays Up on Bet After Cubs Beat Cardinals, Renames Ride

For anyone going to "Fright Fest" at Six Flags St. Louis, here's a ride that probably won't have much of a line.

Cubs Thunder.

Archrivals Chicago and St. Louis met in the National League Division Series this October. While a trip to the National League Championship Series was already on the line, the Six Flags amusement parks in each city decided to make things a little more interesting by engaging in a friendly wager.

The loser had to rename a ride after the victor.

The Cardinals won Game 1 but lost the next three games of the best-of-five series. As a result, the St. Louis park had to rename a ride in honor of the hated Cubbies.

Six Flags Great America made sure everyone saw the renamed roller coaster:

Being a good sport, Six Flags St. Louis wished the Cubs the best of luck over the rest of the postseason:
