Great update of all the new creations that are happening at MK. As a former CP, I worked at the Main Entrance at Animal Kingdom as a Park Greeter. The new entrance at MK I find very interesting. I think it is brilliant. It allows the guests who are spending the most money on property the easiest and fastest way to enter the park. And those who are staying at the hotels and using the World Keys are not cheating the system. They are your good customers that you want to keep happy. Taking out the turnstiles allows families with strollers and people on wheels easier access into the park, instead of ramming the gates. Plus it would make it easier on the Park Greeter, because they would not have to worry about opening and closing a rod-iron gate. You wouldn't believe the number of times a person in a scooter lost control of the vehicle and crashed into the gates. The new technology looks great. It has theming, simplicity, and style all packaged into the design. I wonder how it works. I see they possess the finger scan, but where is the indicator signal that it is a valid ticket? I see some holes. Does it make a sound to indicate yes or no? Does it have a light? Also, are the old turnstiles still there? My next point is that I love they are adding the interactive scavenger hunt game to MK. Yes, I do agree that the game will be great at DAK. I did not know that Disney changed Epcot's game from Kim Possible to Fineas and Ferb. The re-theming kinda makes sense because Fineas and Ferb is more recent and more popular, but kinda does not make sense because Fineas and Ferb are not secret agents. I can understand if Harry the Platypus is the main character and everyone else are side characters.

TPR's Orlando Halloween Trip of Awesomeness
tmhuber replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Here are my top 2 favorite parts of the whole TR. First off, Little Red Riding Hood and her fishnet stalkings at Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party. And number 2, your reference to Back to the Future on Test Track. Very nice. -
TPR's Orlando Halloween Trip of Awesomeness

Reading this TR makes me miss my time I spent in the College Program at Disney. Wish I was there. -
Besides a change in operations and the possibility of slower operations, you can expect a rise in prices at the park to cover the future lawsuit Darien Lake's insurance company will pay for the death. Poor operations of the ride ops to allow a person without their prosthetic legs to ride that ride. Now I never rode it, but I have been on Millenium Force at Cedar Point. I can understand why you need legs to ride that ride. Funny thing is that you only need 1 leg to ride Mantis, but both legs to ride Superman Ride of Steel and MF.

Photo TR: Opening day for Raptor at Gardaland
tmhuber replied to Hhappy's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Hanno, Your shots are always amazing. I need to meet you so you can teach me how to take awesome pictures of really cool roller coasters. Raptor looks amazing. I'm hoping a US park is thinking about putting one in their park. Hopefully a certain park that sounds like Medar Joint. Great pics!!!! So sick!! -

I say the best thing to do tomorrow is the Adult Nintendo Wii Super Mario Brothers championship tournament. Looks like you guys are having a great time. You are making me want to take a cruise. -

Erik & Smisty's Florida Oddventures
tmhuber replied to Electerik's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The captions were funny. Keep up the good work. I am a huge monkey fan. The next time I am in Miami, I may have to plan a trip to the monkey place. My favorite caption is the people who can't read. Funny shit!! -
The "secret" red dot is the marker for all that is important in the universe. For it is, in fact, the CENTER OF THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE!!!! Everything that has ever been created revolves around this single point in the universe. It is the spot in the world that God is aiming to take a crap. And his holy crap will produce an awesome scream machine that we will dub The Green Lantern. I don't know what it means. I am just being creative. I hope you all enjoyed.

TPR Trip to Park City Utah sounds like a great idea. Once i get a job, and some money, this sounds like something i would like to do. -
Heide Park Discussion Thread
tmhuber replied to Sebbe's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I think it is pretty sweet they destroyed an old attraction to make way for their new one, and they did it with a live audience. If Cedar Point did this when they took out White Water Landing to add Maverick, I would have loved it. European parks are awesome!!! -
Are you taking ideas for more "Drunk Piers" videos? Get him drunk, which will be easy, and have him talk about movie plots. This idea is kinda like "drunk moments in history" from funnyordie.com

F the Wisconsin stuff (since I don't know much about Wisconsin), you guys were lucky with the re-opening of Rip Rocket, even though it doesn't look that great. Looks like you guys are having a ton of fun!!!

Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread
tmhuber replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This story sounds like "The Department for Homeland Security" but for Hershey Park. We are being spied on, and thank God, the marketing guys at Hershey Park are listening to their loyal guests. And this sounds like guerilla marketing. The cheapest form of advertising. Now all they want us to do is talk about it (like we are), build up the suspense, then finally tell us what the new ride will be. Welcome to theme park internet marketing.
