Sunday, October 12, 1986, at Anaheim Stadium in Anaheim, California Heading into Game 5, California looked set to earn their first-ever trip to a World Series. Rich Gedman's two-run home run in the second put the Red Sox up 2–0, but Bob Boone's home run off Bruce Hurst in the third cut the lead to 2–1. Bobby Grich, the previous night's hero, hit a two-run home run to give the Halos a 3–2 lead in the sixth inning; Red Sox center fielder Dave Henderson had tried to leap at the wall to catch Grich's long fly ball, but ended up deflecting it over the fence. The Angels added to their lead in the seventh off Bob Stanley on Rob Wilfong's RBI double with two on and Brian Downing's bases-loaded sacrifice fly.
In 1993, the log-flume was extended to have a third drop and was renamed from "Cherokee Falls" to "Nightmare Niagara". The extra drop made it the tallest log-flume in the UK throughout its operational life (this record was reverted to Loggers Leap at Thorpe Park as this ride used to hold the record before the new drop was added, and when that closed in 2015, the title went to Tiger Rock at Chessington World Of Adventures). In 1995, the Iron Wolf roller coaster (now located in a Polish theme park and known as the tic tac tornado) was installed, which broke away from the American theming of the park and was instead themed around the ITV gameshow Gladiators. From 1996 onwards, the park began to decline, and in 1997, Granada sold it to a company called Ventureworld which was headed by John Broome, a former Alton Towers developer.
In some sonnets addressed to the youth, such as Sonnet 52, the erotic punning is particularly intense: "So is the time that keeps you as my chest, / Or as the wardrobe which the robe doth hide, / To make some special instant special blest, / By new unfolding his imprisoned pride." In Elizabethan bawdy, 'pride' is a euphemism for penis, especially an erect one.Partridge, Eric Shakespeare’s Bawdy, Routledge p217 Others have countered that these passages could be referring to intense platonic friendship, rather than sexual love. In the preface to his 1961 Pelican edition (at which time, in Britain, proven male homosexuality still carried a prison sentence, dismissal from the professions and huge public stigma), Douglas Bush writes, > Since modern readers are unused to such ardor in masculine friendship and > are likely to leap at the notion of homosexuality (a notion sufficiently > refuted by the sonnets themselves), we may remember that such an ideal, > often exalted above the love of women, could exist in real life, from > Montaigne to Sir Thomas Browne, and was conspicuous in Renaissance > literature.
