It’s official: Michael Jackson’s family is turning Neverland Ranch into a public amusement park, probably because they couldn’t legally charge people to sniff the air over his grave. The New York Post says

The King of Pop’s loved ones could open Neverland to the public as early as Christmas, under an ambitious timeline set by its owners, private equity firm Colony Capital, and brother Jermaine Jackson.

The family and developers have even agreed to consider various names to call and trademark the sprawling 2,676-acre estate.

In addition to the roller coaster and ferris wheel that are already in place, look for new attractions like the Touch-Me-Go-Round — feel like a kid again as you ride in plaster replica’s of Michael’s lap! — and the Joe Jackson’s Wack-a-Jack — club those Jacksons sterile as they pop out of the hole. Bonus points if you hit Tito!
