Jet Star, sometimes stylized as Jet-Star, was a steel roller coaster which operated between 1970 and 2000 at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights, New Jersey.
[3] Casino Pier had operated Wild Mouse roller coasters in the late 1950s,[4] but by the mid 1960s, ridership numbers were dropping.
[5] One story tells of how Wynne told the ride dealer, Roland Koch, where on the pier the coaster should be built.
When Wynne returned from lunch, he discovered that Koch had begun to build the coaster in a completely different part of the pier.
After a long argument, Koch's preferred location won and the coaster was built where the dealer wanted[5]—at the very end of the pier, overlooking the ocean.
