The Broccoli Slide

If you grow up in Dubuque, you know about the Broccoli Slide. It’s one of those things locals dare each other to ride at least once — a genuinely steep, fast slide that’s earned its reputation for a reason. The name alone gets people curious, but the ride is what keeps them talking about it. Not really for little kids; this one’s built for older kids and teens who actually want a little adrenaline. It’s become a legit landmark in the city, the kind of spot you bring out-of-town friends just to watch their reaction.
