I DVRd the Rachel Ray show, and just watched it. They didnt show holiday world at all all they did was talk about Santa Claus Indiana and it was only like 5 seconds long.What a waiste of 30mins. lol

I have just heard that Bizarro is open today

Here is some pics i took of the Mr Six splash island construction! You can see alot more pics from opening day here

^yes its a game and it actually is duckpin bowling and you get 5 frames to get a certain score. Here is the other game in the other half of the building. New game in which you must make it through a maze of lazer beams to win a prize.

SFNE has Finally put the Bizarro Logo on the front of the train as seen in this pic taken on sunday.

I was told that their target date for opening is Memorial Day, so thats not that late in the season.

Construction projects at the park are underway as opening day gets closer. Here are a few pics of some of the work being done. You can see all the progress here

Nice Pics! I was also at the event and posted a full report with lots of pics here

There are pics of the plans posted here

Here is some pics i took on February 13th at the pet food drive of some track work being done on Cyclone!

I only have 1 trip planned so far and that is Coastercon in late june which will be at PA parks with CP and Knoebels as add ons. Of course i will be at my home parks opening days, SFNE,Lake Compounce and Gradv.

- Favorite new coaster-I would have to say the best 2 coasters were built the beginning of the decade, SROS @ SFNE and Boulderdash @ Lake Compounce. - Favorite new ride-S&S Sceaming Swings - Favorite new park- I didnt get a chance to visit any new parks built this decade - Most memorable park moment- It would have to be filming the commercial for Boulderdash the first season it debuted - Most memorable coaster moment- So many to choose from but i would have to go with my first rollback on Top Thrill Dragster, or my first ride on SROS@SFNE on mediaday in 2000. - Best ERT session- Every super hero celebration i went to at SFNE since SROS opened in 2000. - Least favorite coaster-there was 2 i rode this past decade that are no longer around Viper @ Gradv and Hercules @ Dorney - Least favorite ride- Kingda Ka @ Gradv (waiste of money IMO) - Least favorite park-SFKK - Most interesting ride you've seen introduced- I think all the air powered rides built by S&S - Least interesting ride you've seen intoduced- Topple Tower @ Dollywood (POS) - Your favorite TPR moment (favorite post, trip report, video, whatever!)- I guess my only TPR moment was meeting Big Mike at ride the bull event at Gradv - The decade's biggest flop- The rise and fall of Geauga Lake, SF Ohio, SFWOA, Geauga Lake. - The decade's biggest success- B&M, Intemin, And Lo-Que - The best meal you've had at a park- i would say at the Preservation conferrence at Lake Compounce in 08 - The worst meal you've had at a park- the meal we had at Gradv at the ride the bull event everything was ice cold - Best park turnaround- Riverside park has grown so much this past decade since it was branded SFNE in 2000 - Worst park turnaround - Wild West world - What was the biggest trend of this past decade? Launch coasters, Cable lifthills, Lo-Que

Look at the US we are still going and the national debt is in the trillions. I bet it wont be long until all the CF parks have a Flashpass system! lol

Those are the dumbest excuses i have ever heard, what coaster doesnt have abstructed views? You either have a high back seat in front of you or someones head unless you ride the front seat everytime. I have ridden bizarro 30 times over the summer and i can say i have never got soaked from the mist, and the audio is barely noticeable while the train is going through the circuit. I guess some people arent happy unless they are b*tching about something. Which ever park you chose you will have a good time, i for one love all parks because i go there to ride and have fun not to try to rank them as to which ones are the best.

It depends on what you want to ride? If you want some good woodies and the #1 steel in the world you will get those in NE, but if you are just looking for credits do the other parks.

^ now that looks like the best ride in the show and im not talking about the cooler! lol

Gee I wonder why enthusiasts get such a bad reputation... Here is the rides that S&S has built. Turbo towers- There the only rides that actually work right with very little down time. Screaming swing- Good ride but way to much down time. Sky Swatter- only 2 were sold and again more downtime than up. Hypersonic coaster- Junk! It took huss 3 months to get a replacement motor to SFNE for their huss frisbee. I know if i was spending millions on a ride i would want them to answer the questions!

Those timberline trains look cramped when your sitting in them. Someone should ask Stan Checketts why S&S rides are junk and also ask Huss why they suck at getting replacement parts out to parks quickly!

The one thing i think is stupid on his poll is why would he have My Favorite steel on a wooden coaster poll???? I just eliminate that when i do my list because i do the steel coaster poll when that starts!

It was nice to meet you Mike! Here is the pic from yesterday at the Bull event at Gradv. The SFNEonline crew

^ If they let people ride in their bathing suits how would they make money with the new Haystack dryers they are installing? lmao

Awesome PTR it just shows why it is my #1 park. I actually enjoyed Garfields Nightmare when i rode it the last time i was there.

They are coming out with the final one on August 28th http://movies.yahoo.com/summer-movies/final-destination-death-trip/1810060759
