Thank you. Finally someone else who sees what a boondoggle destined for failure that this project is.

They all have lead cars. Some are more stylistic than others, but there's always a car before the front row.

It's also entirely possible that there's one with red trim and one with orange trim. The things you people get worked up about...LOL.

Shhh, logic and wisdom from people actually from the area forsaking the doom of this place aren't allowed in this thread.

Seriously, seek professional mental health counseling.

Good to know the NJ one isn't the only Triple Five project getting done on the backs of taxpayers LOL.

Great report! I believe, but could be mistaken, that tattoos in Japan have a history with Yakuza (the Japanese "mafia"), wheres really only Yakuza members would get tattoos. Probably has something to do with that.

They need to get WCR working first LOL.

I rarely go to Six Flags parks, but I for one would welcome the change. I don't know how you people enjoy the blandness of Coca-cola. I'll give them the lemon-lime drink (Sprite is vastly superior to Sierra Mist), and Coke itself mixes better with Jack than Pepsi does, but really? For me, given what I drink, Pepsi > Coca-Cola Cherry Pepsi > Cherry Coke Mountain Dew > Mello Yello Mug > Barqs Gatorade > Powerade Sierra Mist < Sprite

Be prepared to pay $60 on a weekday or $80 on a weekend for like 5 adult rides. If they don't change their pricing model yet again by that time. Or close down all together due to lack of attendance.

Thank you for reaffirming my decision to wait before trying to visit. You should probably wait until January when they'll be paying people to go in hopes they spend additional money in the park. Oh, wait, there's like one food stand. But not too long, 'cause then it'll be closed.

Is anyone surprised? Really, anyone?

...and will probably be $100 a day LOL.

Here you go: https://www.nj.com/news/g66l-2019/10/753698a3ba5939/american-dream-mall-is-open-heres-a-look-inside-photos.html You're not missing much. And yes, that was the opening day crowds. The place was open to the preview-buying public.

For someone who has talked a lot of shit on Robb and TPR on his Twitter page, coming here with your name and location, and some of your recent posts...yeah I give you a week.

New Texas Giant. I have no idea where the 'A' came from either.

Welcome to the saga of American Dream. When you realize that this project has been in the works since the Clinton Administration, it puts things into perspective.

On the plus side, you'll be about an hour (with DC traffic) from King's Dominion. Spring for the Platinum Pass and enjoy both!

King's Dominion on 11/2.

From looking through those auctions, it appears that they've dismantled numerous of the old pinball machines and arcade games that were in that Arcade. Why would they have done that?

I couldn't have said this better myself, being in the same line of work. It boggles my mind how any grown adult, or even HS or College student, could be legitimately scared by anything that occurs at a Six Flags or Cedar Fair Halloween event. I too enjoy them for the artistry of it all. Now, some of the intense haunts (like that one in Spain described in the TR or some of the nuttier ones in PA), where people are touching you, restraining you, throwing stuff on you...I can see how that could cause some psychological trauma. But kids in face paint, masks, and sparking sliders? LOL.

I dunno, that truck looks pretty messed up from the pictures. Probably a total write off.

Ah, $15 an hour. The universal solution to all of the world's problems. Most HS/College kids and parents with normal jobs have work Monday morning. It makes absolute sense for them to not stay open until 10PM or 1AM on Sunday nights. Yes, they probably could pay more and get more people to work, but I think you're vastly overestimating that incentive and they would still have staffing troubles. I'm pretty sure CP, and the other CF parks that do not do Haunt on Sundays, are perfectly fine with their fiscal outlook the way things are. I'm sure someone there has done the math and determined that the additional income gained from running Haunt on Sunday nights would not outweigh the additional expense.

LOL who is surprised? No one. I'm surprised NJ.com even reported on this since they've been doing nothing but hyping this project with new articles every day for the past year.
