The main carousel at Knoebel's Grove (of 2) has an old fashioned feature to it: It has an extendable arm loaded with brass rings, and riders mounted on the outer fourth tier of horses (oufitted with special stirrups for leaning out) can reach and attempt to grab rins with each pass. After the arm is retracted, the passengers can attempt to toss the rings into a target while employees look on. The rider with the most successful ring shots earns a free ride :D Its old things like this that make Knoebel's Stand out. While more modern amusement and theme parks would scoff at an idea like this or perhaps would be too fearful of injury and lawsuit, Knoebel's keeps with tradition. This only helps add a certain cozyness and nostalgic feeling which (personally) bring with it an air of ease and enjoyment.
