Named for?

Was this named for Action Park in New Jersey? --ChrisRuvolo (t) 05:32, 3 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's hard to say. I've got a CD copy of the album, and it doesn't explicitly reference Action Park in New Jersey, nor does the hand-drawn map enclosed in the CD seem to resemble Action Park. However, I can't think of any other parks called Action Park. So this album could be named for the park. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.69.181.109 (talk) 02:38, 26 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't we then remove any certainty one way or the other, make it more objective, and cite what is known? as it is the article claims matter-of-factually that Vernon, NJ's Action Park had nothing to do with the title, and cites bubkus. Travelsonic (talk) 04:39, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I edited that entry, as I am in the band and was there when we came up with the title for the album. None of us had ever heard of the New Jersey Action Park. We were just brainstorming / coming up with names. Todd came up with "at Action Park". I came up with "Uranus". Steve came up with "The Rude Gesture". We were just throwing ideas out at each other trying to crack each other up. My brother's girlfriend at the time was good at illustrations. We came up with a list of things that we imagined would be in this "Action Park" and asked her to illustrate it. Please remove the "citation needed". I am the citation.
