Dude Perfect Eyeing Grapevine Theme Park

Dig World plans to open a Grapevine location. And the amusement park company wants to partner with Dude Perfect to include the group’s trick-shot attractions that go along with the construction-themed experiences that allow children to experience operating heavy equipment. It represents Dude Perfect’s first incursion into amusement parks as the sports and entertainment group known for their trick-shot videos on YouTube looks to build one of their own eventually.

Dude Perfect started in 2009 as a group of five friends at Texas A&M University who made videos of trick shots, such as scoring a basketball from the third deck of Kyle Field. Today, Dude Perfect’s YouTube channel has more than 61 million subscribers and their videos have amassed over 19 billion views.

The Grapevine Mills park will feature a zone with three Dude Perfect-branded attractions.
