A Northern California roller coaster appears to have been generating too much fun for a nearby complex.  

The Gold Striker at Great America in Santa Clara had to be briefly taken offline because riders were reportedly screaming too loudly.

The San Jose Mercury News reported that the shrieks were exceeding the decibel limit agreed upon in a settlement with Prudential Real Estate, which owns adjacent properties.

So, Great America had to cover a portion of the track in a sound-dampening tunnel. The wooden roller coaster reopened on July 3, 2013 after the work was completed.
