The Ozark Wildcat was a wooden roller coaster at Celebration City in Branson, Missouri. The coaster was demolished on December 15, 2015. Ozark Wildcat's coaster train was sold to Dollywood. In late October 2015, Herschend Family Entertainment announced that Ozark Wildcat will be demolished. It was eventually demolished on December 15, 2015.

Rider Experience

Once riders were carried out of the station, they entered a slow helix turn and the train went up into the chain lift. After the lift, a short dip was followed by a steep helix turn-drop. Many bunny-hops provided plenty of "air-time" while the padded seats of the coaster still provided a smooth ride. A large, fast, helix and a sudden drop proclaimed the final act before the train rolled into the train shack, turned 90 degrees to the right, and entered the loading station. The safety restraints automatically released, and after detaching precautionary seat belts, riders were free to exit the ride.
