Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Yesterday
we said farewell to the Texas Chute Out, a mild mannered attraction that's been at Six Flags since 1976. It went out with a glorious bang: the implosion's force was so strong it rattled our cameraman in his chest. Here's the video by Mike Mezeul. And yes, I

Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
