The American Dream becomes the American Scream at Worlds of Fun for thrill seekers grasped in the clutches of the PATRIOT roller coaster. The latest addition to Worlds of Fun’s arsenal of thrills, Patriot is the longest and tallest inverted roller coaster in the region!

Rider Experience: The inverted PATRIOT delivers two minutes and 18 seconds of the ultimate amusement park adventure by exposing riders to height, speed and a seamless transition of gravity-defying elements. Hanging beneath the track, thrill-seekers climb a 149-foot lift hill, then plunge down a 123-foot curved drop reaching a speed of nearly 60-MPH. Riders are disoriented as they fly through seven gravity-defying elements, including an 89-foot vertical loop, a zero-gravity roll, an Immelmann loop, an inclined banked curve, an s-curve, a corkscrew, and a high-speed spiral.
