  9. You go backstage next to One Fish and then its in the big soundstage across from where the Dead End house was and behind Hard Rock.
  10. Just curious...requested to be in the TPoRlando group a few weeks back and do not have access. I am pretty sure I requested it correctly as it show pending.
  11. Can't believe the park went there with the Cajun Cliffhanger. Edgy! Here's an HD video link to the "graveyard". I know Cedar Point has done this in the past, so it's not like its a groundbreaking idea, but it is a great addition.
  12. SfGam parking cost has changed this year. Early this year it was $15 for the far back lot, and $25 for the "preferred" & season pass lot. They have had ALL kinds of trouble getting cars into quickly and off Grand Ave. and recently (like in the past 2 weeks) have gone to everyone pays $20. It does make everything quicker.
  13. http://www.wfrv.com/news/local/Family-to-pursue-legal-action-against-Extreme-World-99902264.html In this video from the Green Bay area news, they say Extreme World says the employee is on leave for "mental health issues". This story just keeps getting stranger and stranger. The local NBC news here in Chicago said that the employee was a 33 year old with 15 years experience at the park.
  14. Ran to the park this morning for the Little Dipper re-opening. The ride looks fantastic and it fits in perfectly. The ride was re-built at SFgam with nearly 90% wood, but the specs are supposed to be nearly exact to when it was at Kiddieland. The height limit is 36 inches with an adult or 42 inches alone. The Little Dipper is a wonderful first coaster for the little ones. I have also included a couple pics of the new ropes course going in front of the Demon.
  15. Just got back home for a little lunch / dinner break from the park. It was completely dead. Nearly every ride was a walk-on with empty stations everywhere. I expect it to be a little more busy tonight, but the weather is not great here in Gurnee. Anyways, onto some pictures. Painting of Sky Trek Entrance plaza They are painting it blue right now.... Whizzer is indeed SWAMP THING. A few props here and there on the ride. Nice touch. Did I mention the park was dead? Snakes on a Train Haunt pricing Now Terror Twister 2.............. Ricoslay is back And the pig is back too American Eagle is now BLACK WIDOW Train is running round trip only Area 51 moved again King Chaos re-themed to BLOOD BATH She's wearing DEAD HARDY. Nice New spot for Larry
  16. ^ I agreee, Corey's team is stacked with the RB's.... but I also really like Shawn's team. Your WR's are very solid, and if Turner and Jones can have similar seasons to last year, you will be tough. I play Shawn week 1 and am not looking forward to that matchup.
  17. Just joined the ESPN.com league. The Gurnee Vipers will be at the Live Draft Sunday.
  18. Fantasy Football veteran of 15 years here...would love into the Big Mike League.
  19. You really should not have any problems with crowds. The park in only open until 6pm those days. Most local schools will be back in session by then. The crowds are probably at their highest right now, and start to get smaller and smaller as the weeks go on. Have fun!
  20. ^ Don't feel bad. We posted our TR of City Museum from May awhile back, and we too missed the Shoe Shafts. Upon reading other TR's when we got back, and seen we missed them, I was a little miffed. We will be back in St Louis in October, so we will hit it up again. How do you get in the shoe shafts room??
  21. Agree 100% with you on Dale Murphy being in the hall. From 1980-87 he was a beast.
