Arkansas State Fair ride leaves kids stuck upside down

Ally Metzger recorded a cell phone video on Saturday afternoon at the Arkansas State Fair showing her 11-year-old and 8-year-old kids stuck upside down on the X Drive Carnival Ride. "There was a bunch of people trying to get the right to spin, and they would get it almost halfway down, and then it would go right back up to the very top, with my kids still upside down. So I'm panicking. My partner's panicking," said Allyson Metzger. She says it took crews at least 15 minutes to get her kids off the ride while they were upside down.
