You pay $30 To park on old $8 Astroworld parking during Texans games...Hell one time i paid $12 and had to walk half a mile to the Rodeo. I had to park on GRASS! Muddy grass!Wow. $15 for parking, and I thought $7 or $8 at Hershey or Dorney was expensive!I seriously don't get the complaint around the parking price. Yeah, it's expensive. But it's MUCH cheaper than parking at most sporting events, concerts or even spending a day at a big city. I think I paid like $20 to park in NYC for a couple of hours last time I was there.
Parking is $15...big deal. Your lunch at the park will probably be more expensive. Deal with it.

Astroworld also had one. Sky Screamer!Freefall at SFOG (the one in Georgia you mentioned), still there, still operating. Although theres that old rumor thats been around since 2001 saying that it would be scrapped for a V2 clone...Also, Geauga Lake scrapped their 1st Gen Freefall ride, it has a long story.
It was installed in 1981 at SFGAm (when it was Marriot's GAm). After an accident a couple of years later, the park closed the ride and sold it to the now defunct Rocky Point Park in Rhode Island.
Rocky Point Park closed in 1996 and the Freefall ride was sold to Premier Parks. The ride was installed at Geauga Lake in 1997 as Mr. Hyde's Nasty Fall. The ride operated at the park until 2005, when it became SBNO and eventually scrapped for parts for Demon Drop at CP.
so is there an original six total?

Wow at SF's Expense. They should make the riders pay after all they warn you! "No loose articles!" If you think it will break/fall out LEAVE IN AT HOME/IN THE CAR!It's pretty nice how Six Flags covers the cost of mailing the stuff back to their owners.Pretty nice article...

I don't think it's because of the fully...They're going to PAY the city to take over.Well with the way Six Flags are selling parks, it doesn't surprise me to hear it might not re-open.-Martyn

The same was done for Astroworld. Save this, save that, the only thing that was saved was the bridge!Who here thinks that this website could actually save Magic Mountain?Anyone???
Didn't think so. I wouldn't wast your money on a shirt, as it really won't help (unless you like the shirt...).

Unfortunatly that's what they said about Astroworld. They said the propertly could fetch upwards of 150 million dollars... Yeah right. They got 77 -20M or so for demolition and the land is sitting empty. 2 Miles from the Houston medical center across the street from the dome and stadium would seem like a good buy.Tiburon:I hate to say it but I think you may be right on the money here.
I really really hope we are proven wrong though. Only time will tell. Unfortunately per the words of the chief economist of Los Angeles county economic development corp.
a 250-acre block of land like the one Magic Mountain sits on is rare in Los Angeles and would be very valuable, said Jack Kyser, chief economist for the Los Angeles Economic Development Corp. Another theme park operator is always a possibility, but some of the deepest pockets in real estate are in residential, and the most need in the area is for industrial and office buildings."This is going to be very interesting," he said.

Let me guess she found a way to sue the park...This has been around the internet, but...A mid-teen girl was riding on Millenium Force, at the bottom of the drop, a bird hit her in the face! She suffered bleeding in the face and a broken nose.
