WASHINGTON D.C. Yesterday President Obama vetoed the bill to continue the Keystone Pipeline XL, an oil system spanning from Canada to Montana and through Nebraska. The unprecedented veto has left the construction teams on the massive pipeline in limbo. Thankfully, contractor Harvey Livingston prepared a backup plan. Livingston has received the go ahead to turn the pipeline into an interstate amusement attraction, making it the largest water slide in the world.
“Most of the infrastructure has already been established, so we could get this puppy up and running by summer 2015.” Livingston said. The water slide would use Canada’s mountain spring runoff to fuel the ride, reducing the cost to U.S. taxpayers. The new attraction is not only a great way to have fun, it can also be used as a means of travel, saving families who caravan through the Midwest hundreds on gas. The Keystone Pipeline XL will have ride exits every 15 miles. Many off ramps will feature strip malls with Arby’s and Wal-Mart’s to appease the tubed travelers.
Several companies have inquired about advertising on the side of the massive slide, including obvious shoe-in Keystone Light beer, which the pipeline was originally named after. “This thing is all profit.” Livingston says “Obama’s veto was a blessing in disguise. The American people deserve a quality fun time and a reliable public transportation system. Why not combine the two?”
