It opened as &#8220;Teacup Ride&#8221;, a name which stuck for 14 seasons, until it was renamed &#8220;Teacup Twisters&#8221; in 2000. For the 2004 season, its name changed again to &#8220;Storm in a Teacup&#8221;, and it received a sponsorship from Tetley Tea in 2011. It was renamed and given the Dobble sponsorship from the 2023 season.<\/p>\n<p><span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243;
