CINCINNATI—An amusement park is apologizing for a Halloween display of skeletons dressed up as dead celebrities, including Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett.

The skeletons were removed from Kings Island on Thursday after criticism surfaced on the Internet and radio talk shows. Park spokesman Don Helbig says the park apologizes if it offended anyone.

The skeleton depicting Jackson wore pajama pants and a long black wig and carried a blanket-covered figure under its arm. The one dressed as Fawcett wore a blond wig and red bathing suit.

Also featured was a skeletal version of Steve McNair, the former Tennessee Titans quarterback who was killed by his mistress in July. The skeleton was holding a football helmet with a hole in the top, a skeleton in a skimpy red negligee draped across its lap.

Kings Island is located 24 miles north of Cincinnati.

They even had a dead Joker with lots of empty pill containers around him, seriously wtf that's a theme park :biggrin:

I lol'd hard at Sonny Bono. Can't believe they thought they'd get away with it.

Isn't it an "Amusement Park"?

Sounds like they did this in a school or office or something.

Who cares.
