The employees get to ride. Looty being an employee has scored at least four rides on the ride.

Avatar is testing today. Some of the ground has been painted orange also. I also found another video of Spongebob Testing froma different angle. Heres an onride POV of Pepsi Ripsaw also taken on Staurday.

Looty Update

It's around $52-$53, but you can buy tickets online for around $35. Hope that helps.

Bloomington, MN, it is about 5 mins from the MSP international airport and 15-20 mins from Minneapolis. *The Park is open everyday except Christmas.

Check out this trip report from yesterday. There is a lot of photos of testing along with changes to the park. http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=42185

^Along with the Cedar Fair hates woodies. Bogus!

Give her some credit, she did a great job singing 1 and 1/8 of her hit song. Don't you remeber, it was her band who pressed the wrong button to make her voice come out of the speakers while not moving her lips.

I said SFDK because I had a really great time and the park had a lot of things to do. CGA just gave me a good time and Top Gun. Though if it were 2009, I would give the edge to CGA for that new woodie.

Famous Nickelodeon Celebrities will be at the Grand Opening on March 15. They are as follows: -Lil' JJ from "Just Jordan" at 1:30pm -Miranda Cosgrove from "Drake and Josh" and "iCarly" and School of Rock fame at 2:30pm -Nat and Alex Wolff from "The Naked Brothers Band" at 3:30pm -Kid's Dance Party with J.Boogie from "TEENick" from 6-8pm Ashley Simpson will be there at 12:00pm singing and Autograph signing at the Mall's Rotunda. Everybody else will be West Market Square inside Nickelodeon Universe. Sorry for all you Zoey 101 fans, little mis Jamie Lynn will not be there. visit http://www.mallofamerica.com for more info. WEST MARKET SQUARE is by the entrance to the Mighty Axe/Tak Attack.

The name will actually be Green Slime Falls. I'm guessing they will retheme it either after Spring Break or after the summer. Basicly, they are taking away the Paul Bunyan theme and making it Nickelodeon with new animatronics. One room may be Spongebob, another Avatar. I don't know. But I do now it will take a couple months to complete.

Here is something a little different than Avatar and Spongebob testing. Splat-O-Sphere is going again.

The ride is only 4 years old, so I don't think they wanted to re-paint it. Besides, they don't even have time to paint Ripsaw before the grand opening.

Update from Looty

The realigned support has also been painted blue.

I wonder what event is within these two weeks? Hmmmmmmmm. Here is one of the Sky Tower under construction, but it also shows the park around it under construction as well. So here is one photo for your two questions. http://www.thrillnetwork.com

Sounds cool, so do you know how much the park makes every year; # of wristbands bought. That brings me to another question, how do they calculate the number of guest the park plays host to each year?

Here's a new shot. This time it is either stuck or just passing through the mid-course block.

Looking at all these webcam shots makes 16 days sound a lot longer than it really is.

Speaking of Gerstlauer, I remember seeing something from the IAAPA coverage on Screamscape. Maybe this could be what is in store for MM. Yeah, except for that it has inversions. I seriusly think that this will be a GCI. Don't Intamin woodies has a height restriction on 52"?

It has been said many times that SFMM and SFDK are over 300miles and at least a 6 hour drive apart. CGA is even farther. It wouldn't matter if SFMM got a TH or a woodie. Northern and Southern California are almost like seperate states. Think of it this way. SFSL got a TH this year, yet across the state, there is an exact model of the exact same ride. Same with SFOT and SFFT. WoF got Patriot in 2006, yet SFST already has an B&M invert, Batman. So don't think that SFMM and SFDK could not both have Tony Hawk's.

^Looty won't have any until Friday, when he goes back to work. ^^^There is a pretty good chance that I will be there.

^Are you going opening weekend?

11/20. Not bad for guessing on almost all of them.
