Good point. Don't they have a fairly big ride to hype up for the 2006 season? -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
TheGreatOne replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Not suprisingly, there are now tons of trees missing from that site. Typical Cedar Fair construction work! Cedar Fair's motto: We hate history, we hate trees. As far as those who know: Those who know keep their mouths shut, sit back and are amused by those who have no idea. -Bryan "500 has nothing to do with 2007" Wood -

Westcoaster Status Update
TheGreatOne replied to Jim Disney's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
ARN&R was funny two years ago. They just keep writing the same things with different wordings, sad really, because I thought they were funny for the first few months... Also...I like their fake fan... http://arnrrulz.tripod.com/arnrfanfic/id41.html The girl in that picture is a member of the Arizona State Dance Team. I worked with her when I lived in Arizona. -
Supersize Me had some redeeming qualities and all...but no one eats McDonald's all day, every day for 30 days without exercising. I eat fast food a lot, but I exercise. I am in shape and have low cholesterol (and have a family history of high cholesterol). The problem isn't food, people are just lazy! McDonald's is alright, but their food isn't nearly as good as a Culver's, Sonic, Rally's/Checker's and Wendy's. On a side note...I miss Sonic and In-n-Out Burger.

Another credit question

It's the same color. They better hope it was disassembled properly at PGA or the loop might need to be duct taped together! -Bryan "only in Kentucky" Wood -
Another credit question
TheGreatOne replied to Jim's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Steel coaster track is replaced on older coasters every now and then, and no one every counts it as a credit. Heck, it happens a lot on wooden coasters, and sometimes whole sections of a ride can be overhauled for various reasons. More often than not, we never see the replacement because the ride is inside the park when it's closed. In this case, Greezed Lightnin' faces the road, so it's easily visible. I would say it is not another credit. -
I'm really surprised not to see Phoenix on there. I loathed driving to the airport to pick up and drop off people because I had to cross downtown when I lived there. Freaking Los Angeles is crazy. The traffic is bad, but the way they merge/unmerge 8 million highways within 5-7 miles is so flipping nuts. I don't envy anyone who has to drive around there. The only traffic we have around these parts is when two semis are blocking both lanes of I-70 at 60 mph in a 65 zone.

Both of my October CP visits were crowded, I would not recommend it. I visited CP on a weekday in May and there were hardly any waits...it was only 5-10 minutes for Millenium Force...the line wasn't even down the "bridge"! PKI weekends in April are generally not too busy, but if the weather is really nice, it can get crowded quickly.

Best Six Flags Park
TheGreatOne replied to MSLSM's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
For me, Six Flags Great America is the best all-around SF park I've been to. I've also been to: SFMM, SFoG, SF Worlds of Adventure, SFKK and SFDL. -
Marineland Gets a Topple Tower

Yes! Now I'll get to ride two of these rides this season! -Bryan "loves Huss rides" Wood -
Vekoma Trains
TheGreatOne replied to dougstanton's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Well if that's the case, they could just retrofit some seatbelts to Ninja's trains. Given Six Flags' budget, buying new trains when it isn't extremely necessary don't make much sense. -Bryan "those trains looked brand new in 2003" Wood -
The "Say Something Random" Thread

I loooove hockey fights. -
Hopi Hari is home to my favorite themed Tea Cup ride. It's called "Giralata", and all of the tea cups are trash cans and Oscar the Grouch is the centerpiece of the ride. Do you have any pictures of that to post?

Favorite SFKK Coaster
TheGreatOne replied to paramountguy's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Recognition? We're just picking our favorite ride at a park. I've had nothing but bad experiences at the park and I went in trying my hardest tolike it. -Bryan "I'll be there opening day hoping for good changes since I get in for free" Wood -
I din't know Robb was such an ass
TheGreatOne replied to paramountguy's topic in Random, Random, Random
For Swimace: What do I think? I think first off, you really need to read the posting rules regarding spelling and grammar. Secondly, I think you need to not tell people how they are supposed to respond. "Don't just write build a woodie", etc. And finally, they should get a Dive Machine and BGT. --Robb In response to this thread http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=22322&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 Which he has since edited. It needed editing, it had horrible grammar and he told people not to respond in certain ways. It was warranted. If it was my site, I wouldn't have been so leniant. Bannination!
