JACKSON'S RUSTY FAIRGROUND RIDES ARE STILL A BIG HIT.

MICHAEL JACKSON's Neverland amusement rides have become a hit on California's county fair circuit.Three attractions, the Spider, the Wave Swinger and the Zipper, have been auctioned off and have started appearing at carnivals. According to the Los Angeles Times, Jackson acquired 18 rides for his ranch home in Santa Barbara County. Many of these were snapped up by fairground firms in 2008, when they hit the auction block.

Organisers of the California State Fair in Sacramento cashed in on the sudden surge of interest in all things Jackson, following the King of Pop's death, by hiring impersonators to promote the rides and playing the pop superstar's hits.
