One can hope it goes to Michigan's Adventure! Pretty much any coaster would be a great addition there as it is still a developing theme park. The ride would work well at Valleyfair, but I do not think taking out Mild Thing would be enough room. If Michigan's Adventure gets Invertigo, I'll make sure to head there!

TPR's Ever Evolving Park Index
Jerrykoala2112 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, I've been checking on the Park Index every time before I head to a new park. I look at what credits are new, look at recent reports, and all that good stuff. This new one looks very user friendly, and should help many people when trying to seek info on a park -
Mitch Hawker 2010 poll
Jerrykoala2112 replied to Skycoastin Steve's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I glanced over at other lists and found out I'm not the only person that ranked Kentucky Rumbler over Voyage. I rode both last year, and Voyage wasn't running as well as it use to, while Kentucky Rumbler was still giving a crazy, action packed, out of control feeling through the whole layout. I guess it all matters on what everyone seeks in a coaster. And I do agree about Voyage's roughness. Might as well put myself in a barrel and roll me down a mountain. -

I did not like this coaster one bit, at least with the old trains! I got *really* bad sunburn the day before, but I needed both Gwazi credits so I had to endure the suffering! Sheikra and other rides didn't hurt, but I guess the vibrations and random jolts made me not like the ride. Millennium Flyer trains are super comfortable, so looks like Busch Gardens will have a great 2011! (Cheetah Hunt!)

That was a really great parade! I'm so glad the park has decided to keep the parade, because I thought it was lovely. I've seen the parade, 5 times, and each time, I had to fight for spots! (Even thought the park was empty during the day! Many people actually want to see the parade) I remember reading a post by Elissa from awhile back replying to all the people saying "Why add the parade, it doesn't do a lot!" And she did mention how it might not bring more guests to the park, but it keeps people in the park longer. Usually, I would end off the parks Marathon-ing coasters, but I have noticed a HUGE amount of increase in guests in line for rides at night (or could be a coincidence.) And after reading over this thread about SF Fiesta Texas operations, I guess the operations at SF Great America are amazing!

That's why I posted my crap a couple months after, but at least it is posted! Can't wait to see some crap! -
Intamin 12-Inversion coaster
Jerrykoala2112 replied to chickenbowl's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
When I rode Fahrenheit, it was anything but smooth (and really slow through many of the inversions) when I rode it in the back. One of the most boring coasters I have ever ridden. -
PHOTO TR: Harry Potter at Night
Jerrykoala2112 replied to Chroniq's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Well, I don't see any kids on leashes, but I still hope you had a great time! Even though everyone says the area is way to small for the crowd it gets, it looks very well themed (and even more amazing at night!!) Can't wait to visit in a couple months! What did you get a chance to ride?
