^ I love the look of this stage set with the wings as part of the street itself! When I saw it in previews in London, I don't think the wings were as elaborate as these. Glad everybody enjoyed it, Guy! We're coming up on our third go, seeing "The Book of Mormon" Wednesday evening. Then (I treated myself), I'll be seeing the show again on Sunday. My fourth time! EDIT(27th): We saw it last night, and it - was - just as awesome - as the last two times we saw it! Everybody was on their feet the second the curtain came up for the bows. And we had "Mormon Virgins" sitting beside us, who just howled at everything! All 4 women told us they were definitely seeing it again, next time it came into town, We agreed with that. And I see it another time on Sunday! And I even bought the t-shirt!

Babbleboom? What an interesting name. Looks cool. And Kniesoor? Is that a second name for him? Hoping there's a video of him talking etc. when he's up and operating. -

^ I don't think they have that available during Fright Nights. With the darkness and fog all around, handling an Exit Pass queue might not be possible. I don't think I have ever seen anybody boarding a ride, from the Exit, on the rides/coaster I have ridden, during the Fright Nights I have gone to. What they post onsite, as a WARNING: I am 65, but I will take my chances, ha - ha - ha! You could always contact them directly about it. http://www.pne.ca By the way... My plans are to go on Wed.the 17th. Just because... you know...* That night has a price of $83-Cdn. for the Rapid Pass. The cost for the 18th is $103-Cdn! I'm still trying to figure out...why the increase on that Thursday? It's not the day before any holiday or holiday weekend. (All tix. can be bought online for a few $$ savings.) *Non-tobacco is legal in Canada, as of October 17th, 2018. Not that this has anything to do with Fright Nights. P.S. I inquired about their earlier opening for Rapid Pass holders who had their online tix already, as to whether there were any rides or Haunts open before 7 pm. Sadly, they told me that no, nothing opened until 7 pm. But this still gives one the chance to be "in queue" at any attraction (Coaster!) or Haunt, before the 7pm opening happens. And this is before the gp buy their tickets and head into the park. It's still a good deal to buy. One of The Best Places to be, on a Fright Night... the Sanitarium Bar. With a nice draft beer, and a nice heat FIRE thingie nearby. Thurs. Oct.24/17. (o: Great night shots of Coaster last year's FN. The playing fields behind, had their overhead lights on so....spoooooooky! (o; -

Yeah well... USA! USA! I rode my first Tagada in Blackpool (TPR UK Tour 2006) in an indoor combo haunt house and ride bldg. Called Trauma Towers, I remember? No seat belts, and it was pretty wild, although I don't believe they made it bounce as much as the outdoor ones do. And I had no idea at the time, that this was a Tagada. And the one I rode in China in Sept.2012, one ride on it was to the tune of "Call Me Maybe"! That was fun. And "bouncy." P.S. What has happened to Floraland, lately? There were a couple of coasters being built on land nearby. An 'extension' of Floraland, wasn't it? Or was that an entirely new park I'm remembering, in China back then? The tagada used to be in this bldg. By my second TPR UK visit (2010) it was gone and the bldg was used for character meets 'n greets. The one in China. Floraland. With most of us on the floor of it. Thank you to who took this (I forget, sorry). My shot of everybody, still on the 'circular seat.' Before they "all fall down." (o;

Three pages with this thread? So far? I'm impressed. By only so much. Don't have a duck. How about a nice milk chocolate turkey instead? To F with? This one's named Talulah, for some reason. (o; Our Thanksgiving is earlier. -
