Photo TR: Walt Disney World Fort Wilderness
ernierocker replied to robbalvey's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
This is the great thing about the Walt Disney Resort. No matter how many times you visit it, there is always something like this to do for the first time that makes the place so special. -

I voted for Six Flags, DFW, and the Fort Worth Stockyards. I visit Dallas a lot, so we will definitely be checking this out when it opens! -

There have been a TON of reports about how rough Georgia Cyclone is on here, so I don't know how you could of missed everyone one of them?? -

It could be that Summers/Dinn didn't have the foresight to build long, sustaining coasters. Rather it was the trains they used or just the actual design, they didn't seem to have a way to prevent their coasters from tearing themselves apart. I think it took their mistakes for their predecessors to fix what they did wrong. The same thing holds true for Arrow as well. They build rides that everybody loved for the early years of operation but eventually got so rough that everyone made fun of them. (Except for Tennessee Tornado which must of been a result of Ron Toomer selling his soul to the devil!) -
^Yeah, you are right. Six Flags Great America couldn't have a successful water park since it is so close to beaches on Lake Michigan. Or just about any major beach destination (like Destin) in the United States would have a reason to build a water park literally across the street from a beach. Oh wait...

^^This is a feature that is commonly used in haunts around the country. It's one drawback is it can cause a capacity issue. For instance, they used this on a house for HHN Orlando a couple of years ago and eventually had to stop using it because it caused huge backups and massive wait times. It is pretty intimidating especially when it is pitch dark and that claustrophobic feeling kicks in.

Oh, I am sure the money will have already been "resourced" for the cause. -

The actual restoration project is becoming more of a joke than the Prince Desmond thing. Wait...it already was. -
The Rumor / Crazy Idea Superthread
ernierocker replied to Wes's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I moved your topic into here. Since there hasn't been any official announcement on this ride, it really belongs in this rumor thread. Once, an official announcement is made, we can start an official thread concerning the ride. Thanks. -Eric
