Reporter taken for a ride
From the Niagara Falls Review (not really an article… just a video):
Niagara Falls Review reporter Tony Ricciuto was taken for a ride in a 500 HP Dodge Charger on Saturday in the upper parking lot of the Skylon Tower. The car was in town for an exhibition to mark the one year anniversary of Carey Hart opening a tattoo shop in Niagara Falls. Spectators were taken for a ride for free.

Clifton Hill – “The Most Fun by the Falls!”
A photographer with a Blogger blog posted about a recent trip to Niagara Falls:
After shooting more pictures of both the American Falls and Horseshoes Falls then I would ever need but seemingly unable to stop taking “just one more” shot of the beautifully illuminated falls, I finally convinced myself that enough was enough and pointed my feet in the direction of Clifton Hill for the trek back up to my car which I had parked not too far from the base of Skylon Tower.
He took some fantastic night pictures of Clifton Hill that you should check out.

Travel group experiences the wonder of Niagara Falls
From The Commercial Appeal (Memphis, Tennessee):
Lauderdale County Commission on Aging hosted a trip to Niagara Falls and Toronto the week of June 19, with 129 folks heading north to Canada to view the awe-inspiring views of the falls.
The group enjoyed dinner atop the Skylon Tower, where the views of the falls are breathtaking. They visited the Welland Shipping Canal, Queen Victoria Park, the magnificent Casa Loma Castle and the lovely historical 19th-century Niagara-on-the-Lake, just to name a few of the exciting attractions visited. They enjoyed a refreshing ride on the “Maid of the Mist,” where everyone got a look at the falls up close. On the way home they stopped at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History and shopped in Louisville, Ky., at the St. Matthews Mall.

Big shots, fancy cars: Here come the celebs
From the Niagara Falls Review:
There will be eye candy galore for celebrity-watchers and gear-heads Friday when Hollywood celebs, music stars and sports figures roar into Niagara Falls as part of the Gumball 3000 London-to-New York car rally.
Actor David Hasselhoff, famous for his roles in Baywatch and Knight Rider is one of the tour’s regular participants, along with skateboarding legend Tony Hawk.
The celebrity-packed parade of high-end automobiles will stop at the Skylon Tower during the last leg of the eight day tour, the stretch from Toronto and New York City.
Gumball 3000 is a rally from London to New York, but it takes a different route each year. For the past 12 years, the rally has enlisted folks who live in the fast lane to drive cars like Lamborghinis, Ferrari, Rolls Royces and Bugattis. There are also novelty entries like the 1966 and 1989 Batmobiles and the A-Team van used in the movie to be released later this year.

Gumball 300 car rally coming to Niagara Falls
This comes from a press release I received from the Skylon Tower:
Look out…. ‘the world’s most rock ‘n roll car rally ever staged’ is coming to the Skylon Tower Niagara Falls, Canada!
On Saturday, May 1 the flag will drop at Waterloo Place on the Pall Mall in London following a day of celebrity entertainment, celebrations and skateboard demo by legend Tony Hawk and his skate team. From London the 3000 mile route begins… [with] stopovers in Amsterdam, Copenhagen and Stockholm. From Sweden all 120 vehicles and participants are flown to North America to continue their journey stopping in Boston, Quebec and Toronto, before a pit stop and lunch at the Skylon Tower in Niagara Falls. From Niagara Falls they’ll head directly to the finish line in Times Square, New York City.

Unfortunately I won’t be able to make it down. My wife is out of town and I’ll have 3 small children with me. I’d end up losing one of them in the crowd!
