If this is true I hope they do come to an agreement. Too often people don't look past the Roller Coasters or how few rides they have when talking about a park closing. There is no way to doubt this will put a huge dent in the Louisville Economy and will only cause misfortune for the employees of the park and its vendors. Not to mention the local businesses (Restaurants, Gas Stations, Hotels) who will see less customers which they may counter by getting rid of some employees.

The Today Show had a preview of Harry Potter. All they have up right now is about a minute long recap. But I am trying to find the full preview. tv.yahoo.com/daytime/video/today-regis-kelly-wendy-williams/17861256/ EDIT: Found the full version along with info on the extraordinary class contest. today.msnbc.msn.com/id/35185063/

Jason's Disney Theme Park Stuff
kidcoaster 2 replied to printersdevil78's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I recommend you starting your own thread that showcases your great collection instead of hijacking someone else's thread! Looks like cool stuff. People would probably love to see it, but it will most likely get buried in a different thread than if it was on it's own. --Robb Thanks. I didn't really see the point of starting my own thread as I don't have as much, so I figured since this was on the topic of collections. -

Impressive collection! Great to see such items being well cared for! Here is a sample of my collection First up is a sign from Busch Gardens to Celebrate Big Bad Wolfs 25th Anniversary 1984 - 2009 Also a Vintage Pendant from Cedar Point which features Demon Drop and Advalance Run! A Pendant from Circus World The Front Bumper off of Trailblazer at Hershey. Also have a few Wheel Caps from the ride and a Spindel off of Sidewinder Here is two thimbs one is from Circus World the other from Busch Gardens the Old Country A few more Pendants Top is Walt Disney World 2nd is Future World Epcot Center, 3rd if Six Flags Over Texas, and last is South of the Border. Ok this was interesting while helping clean the Platform of the Bluestreak this past summer I found the Inspection / Checklist sheet from the last day the Blue Streak operated (With my signature of Approval for that day!) The First 100 years of Conneaut Lake Park (A very rare book to find) Here is a map of the now defunct Six Flags New Orleans Finally my only Historical Disney Item a 1988 Disneyland guide. -
Did they hit you? No but they were making threats towards me and another guest in line. Plus the parents had 3 of their friends and one of them tried climbing over the fence to get me. It was funny though because when security came up and escorted them out of the building the whole line (Which had built up to about an hour wait) started cheering when they were getting taken out. Later in the day a few guests congratulated me for not giving in to them.

I had another incident back in 2006 while running the Witches Stew. A mom came up carrying her son who was legless. Now when you ride the Witches Stew the only think holding you in is a single seat belt. And the ride can be a very slow ride or a wild ride (Not much control due to free spinning). So my first reaction was to deny him because I was worried about his safety. The mom than started flipping out over it. But I fell I did right because the PA rules for rides gives ride operators the right to deny someone a ride if the operator feels the rider's safety would be put at risk.

I am sure the restraint was lose because that was the show model. I am sure when it debuts on the Voyage the restraints will be secure for anysize. And knowing Holiday World they wouldn't have it any other way.
