I have noted the use of Germanic or Bavarian themes in at least 2 Ohio amusement parks. Is/was this a common trend accross the country? German heritage has relevance especially in the Cincinatti area, home of (now Paramount's) King's Island which has a traditional Octoberfest event and architectural affects. Cedar Point, in Sandusky Ohio, sports similar architecture (as well as possible remnants of polynesian style). Could be some all but lost pop-culture history.
