[[File:Gta-v-teaser-in-gta-iv-1.jpg|thumb|right|190px|The [[Los Santos in GTA San Andreas|Los Santos]] backdrop.]] | |||
In the amusement park, located quite near the miniature golf course, there is a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjnQqxXuw98 fairground ride] with a backdrop made up of three screenshots from [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]: the [[Vinewood Sign]], a [[Hydra]] hovering in front of the [[Los Santos in GTA San Andreas|Los Santos]] skyline, and a [[Shamal]] flying over the countryside. The similarity of this mural and the end of the [[Grand Theft Auto V]] trailer (where a private jet flies over the Vinewood Sign and towards Los Santos) has lead many to believe that the mural was a deliberate hint towards the location of GTA V, which would suggest that [[Rockstar North]] had planned the production of GTA V before releasing GTA IV. | |||
