History

The menu in November 2014 included popcorn, safari freeze (ICEEs), Budweiser & Bud Light products, and an assortment of frozen novelties. The stand also offered coffee, hot chocolate, chips, cotton candy, and other items at various times.

The concession stand’s last day of operation was January 3, 2016. The entire Egypt area closed the following day for several weeks as work on Cobra’s Curse continued, and construction began on the new Serpent’s Snacks and short term lockers for the new roller coaster. The new lockers are located approximately where Pyramid Joe’s stood.
