History
The ride originally opened at Boblo Island in Amherstburg, Ontario, Canada in 1958.[1]
The ride closed with the park on September 30, 1993. It was sold at auction to Six Flags for $20,000 in 1994 and was subsequently stored.[2]
In 2000, the ride resurfaced and reopened at Six Flags Over Texas in Arlington, Texas, USA and became known as Missile Chaser, named after an former Scrambler at the park. It was removed after the 2002 season to make way for Superman: Tower of Power.[3]
The ride was then sent to Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California, where it reopened in 2003, regaining the Scrambler name. It replaced an previous Scrambler at the park which was damaged by an uprooted tree and subsequently scrapped.
Scrambler closed after the 2024 season, with most of its parts removed by the start of the 2025 season.[4] By June 2025, the ride was completely removed from the park.[5]
