Batman becomes "Black Inverted Coaster" Freeze becomes "Blue Launched Boomerang Coaster" Joker becomes "Spinning Fling Machine" Justice League = "The Empty Bldg" (SF parted it out to other parks)

After all of that work they put into that damed carousel ….

Yeah that has been reported in more than one place. Let's hope it's true. EnPark is headquartered in KC so I'm sure getting both MO parks was very much on their radar.

I read a separate article about that, too. It was on my phone and I'm too lazy to find it. Every printed press site I try to access wants me to sign up for a subscriptuion, and who the fuck would do that? Apparently SFStl was one of the last parks to be acquired and Enchanted really fought hard for it. The company stated they're interested growth with the park, including new thrills. They are planning to redo Justice League into a new dark ride. IIRC they may have even mentioned a new roller coaster. I can't wait to see how much goes to shit this season.

Same. We are entering an incredibly interesting time in the park's history, which is more than could be said if things kept on as normal with the previous (horrendous) owners/management. The deal for all 7 parks was for $342 million according to Screamscape. One would sure assume that the new ownership group did not make this purchase unless they thought there was money to be made, so I think that bodes well for at least the immediate future. Probably not the long term future if things sputter, but yeah, I'd much rather roll the dice and MAYBE have chance of legit seeing improvement. I'm hoping they do not continue with any sort of agreement for the DC/WB licensing and instead do what they can to rebrand/rename and hopefully have some sort of semblance of actual theming in the park, even if it's somewhat rudimentary. I hope this park is successful. I think the opportunity is very much there if these folks come at with an actual solid plan and the budget to see it through, whatever that may be. If they can present a solid vision for what it will be, I'll happily buy passes for my entire family again and be ready to spend time and money there. If it eventually goes the way of another McBride homes subdivision, well I hope the next few years are fun, at least!
