Seconded.

My 8th grade field trip was to Medieval Times but all the years prior was six flags. About 20 kids showed up out of 150+ bc most of us would rather not go at all if we couldn't go to six flags.

The next year it went back to six flags.

Were you in eighth grade in BCPS circa 2005? Because I was and apparently the county had some kinda panic about their liability insurance that year, so all the good field trips that everyone had been promised (we were supposed to go to Hershey) got cancelled last minute and they hastily slapped together some kind of much worse consolation field trip (ours was to a weird pool, that we had to share with another middle school because they had already booked it, and, arguably, nearly as risky as an amusement park, liability wise)

And like you, subsequent years went back to Hershey
