Marty Moose

Marty wants to go along on your road trip. Hopefully you have far less mishaps than the Griswolds. Please share pictures and stories of your travels.

Decided to name this guy after a classic movie, National Lampoon's Vacation. Marty Moose is the amusement park mascot at "Walley World."

Clark Giswold takes his family on a cross-country expedition from Chicago to the Los Angeles amusement park, "Walley World", billed as "America's Favorite Family Fun Park". Although Ellen wants to fly, he insists on driving, so he can bond with his family. As the family travels, they have several mishaps and hilarity ensues. Despite all the events and the begging of Ellen and the kids, Clark is more determined to get to Walley World. They finally arrive the next day to find the park closed for repairs. Clark, slipping into madness realizing that all his efforts have been for nothing, buys a realistic-looking BB gun and demands a park security guard to take them through the park at gunpoint. Eventually the SWAT team arrives along with park owner Roy Walley. Roy understands Clark's impassioned epitome of the American Vacation, bringing back memories of his own childhood years ago. Roy does not file charges against the Griswolds, and lets the family enjoy the park as his guests.
