I am really sorry but Cedar Fair does not know how to decorate their parks for halloween..

I am not too crazy about the seating, and while i love the colors, id like to see more hypers that don't have orange track. I think its a good addition to the park, youve gotta admit, it does look nice next to the water!

Your camera takes some awesome pictures! What kind of Camera do you use?

^Yeah exactly...thats probably why RCDB Considered it a Mega coaster..i guess it really is a Hyper coaster but B&M calls it a Mega Coaster.

I see

Great TPR. I cant wait until i go. BTW Apollo's Chariot isnt a Hyper, its a mega coaster.

^ yeah thats exactly what i was trying to say in my other post, a few pages back...it was a freak accident..no one is really at fault. Like SFKK knew the cable was gonna snap? I think not..I feel bad for the girl and it should still be investigated, but i seriously dont think there will be an explanation as to WHY it snapped. If the rides are truly inspected everyday like they claim, then they wont find a reason why it broke.

This is really scary..But it goes to show you that freak accidents can happen at any time..I hope SF doesnt get hit too hard with this..Its not like they planned it or anything. I feel bad for amusement parks when things like this happen, because they are just as hopeless as the victims of the accidents are...People just dont realize that amusment parks are not bad places that are purposely trying to hurt anyone...its not like they purposely made the cable snap and sever her legs/ankles.

^No kidding. whos dumb idea was it to have a chain lift going upside down in the first place?

^ I think (and hope) so too. I think you guys are right though..one coaster or one good thrill ride and it will make the park hit it big..then they can be making money and building real large things. If they can build a 200 ft. tower, they can certainly build a large coaster too..hopefully they make money on that park..It does look really rushed, though.

Good TR!

That would be awesome! Those little wagon things look fun.

I think its a really great Idea. Harry Potter is totally a world of its own, and they have a lot to work with. Harry Potter = more money = more attractions for the future in the FAQ's on that website, it said only a *portion* of LC will be gone.

That was an awesome update

I dont think "Pushing Customers away" is the correct term to use..Ive bought tickets for SF multiple times online and never had issues. I doubt its being done on purpose and they are purposely trying to "push" you away.

Well maybe now that the media has caught on with the cell phone usage, SFMM will start to crack down on their employees using them. yes? no? i would assume so, but maybe im wrong.

I completely agree with Robb. Dont ever just sit up here on company time and yak on your cell phone, you are on company time, not personal time. Your cell phone is PERSONAL and has nothing to do with your job. They are not paying you to yak on your cellphone, they are paying you to work, and if you have nothing to do, then just sit there. Yes it may be boring, but like other people said, go somewhere else. no one is forcing you to work there. Loco and I went to Great America last Saturday and i DIDNT see any employee with their cell phone out. Not one. SFMM must not even care. How sad. Like Robb, if i was running a park and i told them no cell phones, if i saw one of them with it, you would be gone. No exceptions. SO unprofessional.

Ok so the park looks good, they did a great job with their sings. I dont like V2's paint job..ill get used to it but i still dont think those colors look good together. and Im upset about the upcoming thomas Town and its location, i think theyre making a mistake with that. However, other then that, they did a great job with their new signs and the entry plaza looks great! glad they covered up the old chain link Fence that showed Medusa's parking lot. Oh..and the Vallet parking this is retarded.

^Well im glad the park changed for the better. Sometimes when you see old pics of parks back in the day compared to more recent pics. your like WHOA! its not necessarily a bad thing, its just the park looks way different. like PGA used to have some good theming..not so much anymore. And like someone said earlier about Knotts. Theming kind of fades away as time passes along.

Which parks do you guys think have changed the most over time, and look nothing like they used to? I was looking at some pics of PGA back in the day and it looked so different, i couldnt believe it. So Which parks do you guys think have really changed?

It looks like its on a dock or something. why didnt they just build it directly over the water?

I really enjoyed this TR too! Next year, im DEFINATELY going to SFMM on Superbowl Sunday.

Wow..thats like some serious empty ness

Robb and Elissa's kid is going to be the luckiest kid alive! It would be the coolest thing ever if both my parents were coaster enthusiasts.

Yep, i wrote to B&M twice. The first time it was before they came out with their flying coaster, and they sent me brochures on all their coasters, and responded back to me with a letter with both their signatures. (autographs) Second time, I wrote to them again after they came out with the flying coasters, and i asked them a whole bunch of questions. They sent me more brochures, including one for the flying coaster and answered all of my questions. Their brochures are really nice looking.
