The Fossil Fun Games are midway style carnival games located in [[DinoLand USA]] at [[Disney's Animal Kingdom]]. ==Backstory <refname= "Jack"> http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/2009/08/chester_and_hesters_dinorama.html </ref>==
According to the backstory of Chester and Hester’s Dino-Rama, Chester and Hester initially owned a small gas station near the main highway. Their lives changed however, when in 1947 amateur fossil-hunters found dinosaur bones in the area. Shortly after the find, scientists and grad students flooded the area and the Dino Institute was founded. In order to capitalize on the archaeological find, as others around them had, Chester and Hester began to sell souvenirs at their gas station. After realizing that they were making more money selling merchandise then gasoline, the couple decided to turn the gas station into a shop called "Chester and Hester's Dinosaur Treasures".
