^Well supposedly barf wasn't the only thing employees would clean up after teenage couples rode it...

^I'm sure you mean the US in general. But it isn't as accepted as you might think. I know people that were kicked out of their home because they were gay. And if you've read the last couple pages of this thread, I kinda took over about some of the things that were happening. People at my school are either very, very homphobic, or very, very acceptable people. But there isn't many homophobes at my school because you can't go there and be homophobic. THERE IS TOO MANY GAY/BI PEOPLE THERE FOR THAT!!! Ask anyone there. They'll agree
The US is slowly being accepting as time goes on. It's better now than it was 5-10 years ago.

^I still remember riding it when I was little.

^That Nick "crap" is very popular with families and IMO, I don't mind it at all.

Maybe next year, Magic Mountain can announce:
SCREAM LOUDER! transforming Scream! into California's first floorless coaster without a parking lot underneath it.
HA! I wish!
-
^I think they got lucky and the train managed to balance perfectly on top. Im not sure though.
-
Are the rotations going to be changed?
I doubt it. I don't think they'll replace parts of track.
-
^That sounds so awesome! but X2?...Eh whatever.
10 Million is a lot! Im guessing a lot of money went towards the new trains.

Piece of Me - Britney Spears
I just picked up her new CD. It's awesome!

SFDK has ducks since the lake is right there.
I remember one time I was eating on one of the tables right next to the lake and all of a sudden a duck comes and pokes his head through the fence, so I gave him some fries.

Ok, I'll admit it (if you haven't figured it out yet). I am a Great America fanboy. When I read this annoucement, I needed a tissue (lol!).
Your not the only one

Filter masks optional but Six Flags will be selling for 10 dollars each.
Typical Six Flags...

Waits for the Norcal enthusiasts that were b*tching about another year without a new coaster at Great America to piss their pants in excitement.
I nearly did!
Thoughts:I think the 09 coaster will be a "element clone" of Renagade, as, I really don't think they have the space for a straight clone unless they take Grizzly. And even then they would need to work space for the cars underneath, unless they "cedarfair" them.
Actually, I think if it was a Renegade clone, it MIGHT fit over by the Imax (except for those little shops on the final turn before the brakes)...
-
I heard from reliable sources that the new coaster will be put in the land where the Whizzer once stood, and where the Imax (to be demolished) is now
I was hoping that spot would be saved for a good steel coaster, but whatever...
A new coaster at GA in 2009! It sounds so weird saying that!
Im excited.
-
^^OMG, that is extremely eerie..
-
I can't imagine watching a wildfire that is about to scorch my house, or a neighbors..
I feel bad for all these people.

RCPro has a pretty big update on this: Link!
-
Cool!
I wonder...at the base of the tree, will there be a Pizza Papa John's stand?
It better be a Panda Express stand
But OMG, 125 feet! Thats huge!
-
Why did vekoma design those horrible trains for their boomerangs? Everytime I get on it I feel all claustrophobic.
-
Nice update, like the decorations!
But CGA, ugh!!! Better than KGA, but I just don't get why CF insist on tacking on something to the name. After Marriott, the park was known simply as GA for years before Paramount stepped in, no one in the Northern CA ever confused it with an Illinois park 2 thousand miles away. Other than coaster nuts, no one out here is even aware another GA even exist. Locals simply call the place GA anyways regardless, can't imagine anyone saying "let's go to California's Great America!".
Better yet, should just drop the GA all together and rename the park. Thanks to Paramount, not much America left in it anyway, let alone anything great about the place.
Well I don't think adding "California's" to the name will be a problem.
Even when it was Paramount's Great America, people still only called it Great America.

Where is my whip when I need it...
-
^No, SFDK has the brake turned off.
-
^Oh wow!
I love those colors!
Glad it's not a clone.
Great America Becomes California's Great America

Well if Axman rode it in 1997 and Invertigo opened in 1998, then it got removed after the 1997 season.
