Jester is a traditional loop-screw coaster, featuring a first drop followed by a vertical loop and double corkscrew inversions. The roller coaster was built at and operated at Six Flags Fiesta Texas as the Joker's Revenge through the end of the 2001 season. The coaster stood, but did not operate for the 2002 season at which time it was then dismantled and relocated to Six Flags New Orleans.
