Description[]
Riders will experience a one-of-a kind adventure through the world of SpongeBob SquarePants in a highly immersive way. The ride starts when Mr. Krabs invites guests to try their luck at his collection of zany ride-through carnival midway games, and his arch-rival Plankton hatches an evil plan to steal the Krabby Patty secret formula once and for all. With five people seated per vehicle, guests can experience the sensory-engaging journey through SpongeBob's world.
Plot[]
Mr. Krabs welcomes the guest to his carnival where they can play his collection of zany ride-through carnival midway games. Unfortunately, SpongeBob and Patrick run into a problem as the deliveryman did not deliver them the equipment needed for the carnival, but instead, Krabby Patty ingredients. Patrick inadvertently comes up with the idea that they can use the ingredients as the things people use in the carnival games including a bonus game where you have to feed Krabby Patties to Patrick. Plankton overhears this and decides to steal the ingredients as the riders play the game.
The ride ends with Plankton being captured and Mr. Krabs chasing after SpongeBob and Patrick upon learning that they used the Krabby Patty ingredients for the carnival games.
