In 1979 maybe. Now that the city of Boston is the laughing stock of the nation... (insert your own snappy comments here.)

I went to IOA once, Posiden broke down half way through TWICE, so I've never seen the whole thing, and I don't even remember what Sinbad was. So good riddance! If anything, there will be new attractions in IOA, so people should be happy. How long has it been?

LMAO! The grove must have REALLY been bad! LOL

Well darn, I'd play "Guess that track" and email Dan, but I'm a flamer. Lou's boobs would do me no good in a cheap motel.

Actually, the first "dashboard" was in a product from Starfish Software for Windows 3.1.

Reminds me of the Smart... http://www.smartusa.com/ I want one of these sooooo bad. They rent them out on the beaches now down here. They are soooo cute, and modular.

"taer it down" All seriousness though, this is worse than West View. I think it's time to just let this one go with what little grace it has left. This park hasn't done anything significant in years. Are they just going to wait until the management gets so bad, that someone dies in an accident? They're better off selling the assets to rescue/relocate the rides, than to rescue the park. The only thing that would save this park is a multi-million dollar investment AFTER a corporate purchase, and that's not going to happen.

So THAT'S where Vladimir works now! That bastard ruined my first trip to Las Vegas back in 1992!

In the 35 years I've gone to Kennywood, I don't think I've ever ran into a "Bad" bathroom. But in the 80's, at the Log Jammer and Noah's Ark bathrooms, the stalls were from 1920, and were SO SMALL, even little skinny me (at that time) had problems turning around. LOL (Now I'm just a fatty. hehehe)

^No. This HUGE one is in the family room, then one in the master bedroom, one in the master bath, master office, guest office, and guest bedroom. He wants to get one more for the pool area. They really wired up this house good. There is HD visible from almost everywhere in the house. (except for the 2 guest baths, and the dining room.)

My BF is on the tail end of finishing his new house, of the 6 HDs he has, the largest is this baby, a 65" LCD. Talk about a computer monitor! The HUGE LCD TV.

These young 'uns have no sense of nerd humor. (hehe)

(sigh) This brings back such good memories as a kid, getting SOOOOOOO excited about what was new at Kennywood. Didn't matter what it was, but to me, it was THE topic of the year, every year, and once news broke, that was it, everyone hated Dennis, cause all he'd talk about is Kennywood. Remember the days before the internet, when your only way of finding out was through the local news? It was like clockwork, every spring, the Friday before opening Sunday, was press day. Wish i could find all my old videos, I had 3 VCRs going at the same time to record each channel's take on the ride announcement. OK, I'm done nerding out now.

I thought Flashback was fun. Oy Vey! But at least I got these 2 creds.

It's really nice to see they're building an arsenal of "new" rides again, it seemed they were in a slump of used and rejuvenated rides for a few seasons. Two years in a row for "new" stuff, woohoo! I just might make the trip this year.

I didn't know you were family!

VERY COOL! I love Kennywood's creativity. Like you said Tim, no big budget, and yet, that's part of the charm Kennywood has. You know it's home-made, but it's awesome. I kinda thought this ride would be themed for Volcano Valley, but I like this UFO much better. Hopefully it will have lots of lights and effects, something that Kennywood likes to stay away from.

73 years, and they've never drained the lake? EWWWWW!

ok, I just saw the video. That kid was trying to unmask Tigger! And the hit was not hard by any means, more like a light tap on the nose. It's a set-up!

One thing I do remember, the original concept had cars shaped like pool balls, which eventually ended up on cuddle-up type rides. Wondering if this water concept is braking a patent somewhere.

What's odd is that there was a similar design of this nature (Without water) back in the 80's/90's, it's in one of the back issues of ACE news I believe. The concept was never built back then, and I don't see this one going anywhere either.

See, here in lies the problem. Lets make a clip of our child getting hit in a friendly-teasing manor, and then make it out to be an assault by losing half the footage.

Yes.
