I have seen a lot of rides and this one just straight up scares me :shock: -
Woodstock Express for Sale
CoasterFanatic replied to momo1tx's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I pretty sure that this is NOT the Dorney coaster. The picture is just there for reference. My guess is that they used it for tradeshows or similar and they are now getting rid of it. Hence the "Sorta Used" description. -

I heard this on the radio the next day and that broad was CRAZZZY! I love how the dad was like "We missed you"

MagicMountain all year pass for $49?!
CoasterFanatic replied to SpectralN's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
While I think that the season pass price is too low, it is actually pretty easy to cut down on the "Baby sitting" thing without even changing the price. Just do like Lake Winnie and Kennywood and require guests under 18 to have an adult with them. Problem solved. -

^ I hope that isn't 2009. Think of all the preservatives! :shock: -

Underrated Coasters?
CoasterFanatic replied to Yero's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I also belong to that "Twister is Underated" sect, but there are others. At PPP you can always find about a dozen people that can't get enough of it. At it's best (which is usually night in late season), that thing is just flat out insane. The Air-Turn-Dive jack move right before the helix is amazing when the ride is running on all cylinders. -

Funny you should mention that. Thursday are "pool league" night with my beer loving buddies (Search 'Beer Fest' for explanation). John got a German tap for christmas and the current keg (well one of them) is Spaten. Had a nice tall glass before going down to the bar. // Does Soren approve? -
Hobby City to Close
CoasterFanatic replied to CoasterFanatic's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Dave and I went during Solace 2004 and I found it to be a nice little kids park. It looked like they were doing pretty good with the whole Birthday Party scene they had going. Guess in the end that it just wasn't worth the work. Most of all, I will miss Ted the Train Operator! // Now that the park is closing, I would like to boast the Freeway Coaster to be a top ten caliber ride! -

Bat Promotional Video Posted

^ Torn down with extreme prejudice. Arrow filled the area with the still-running Vortex. -
Coasterdad (a CF member who also frequents these boards) has recently sent me a real piece of coaster history. That's right ... an offical promo for the King's Island Bat from it's opening year. You have heard the stories about how it was the best of the suspended. Well, after viewing this video, it would hard to argue that! This look just looks insane! Check it out: http://www.coasterfanatics.com/sec_videos/default.asp Sorry, but due to the file size and popularity (soon enough) of this video, I have added a login to view it. It only takes a second to register so get to it.

What have you been hit in the head with?
CoasterFanatic replied to zaneymon's topic in Random, Random, Random
Solid Oak Door (5 Stiches) Other Persons Head (6 Stiches) Driver Side Window (I broke it with my head. How cool is that!) I am sure that there are more, but those were the big ones. -

Ogrish is a completely useless site that has nothing to do with the conversation in hand. I don't argue the fact that they have the right to exist, but why do I want to subject myself?
