"but it has to have an app! Apps make everything more offical!"
----Steve Jobs fanboy
EDIT:Six Flags App is a piece of crap, IMO. Doesn't work well and it crashes on me alot.
SMS is so much easier, cheaper too. I applaud BGT decision for doing this!
It seems like this Blackstone thing might just turn out to be better than anyone could have hoped for!I am thoroughly surprised on how the parks have been maintained and are expanding in a recession like this!

Too bad I never had a girlfriend to ride this with before they changed the trains.
Trust me, when you do get a girlfriend...there are a lot more exciting things you can do with them than ride Matterhorn.
Hes right!
Like riding a Huss Enterprise in the middle of summer!!!!!!
Anyhoo, those trains do look abit unfinished so they probably will have padding!
-
It should be free!
I dont know how you can charge for this kind of thing especially if it has text ads with it. Just doesn't make sense!
-
^ That sounds a bit more accurate...
Great TR, I cant wit to get back down there and experiance the park again!
That was my biggest peeve was the tree situation, glad to see HFC combat it!
Also I recommend that they have more Canadian bands as well as Blue Oyster Cult for the next concert season.Right there with you Erik!
Rush time Machine Tour 2011????? I could only hope!!
Rush+ Coasters= Insane awesomeness that cannot be described!!!!!

^ And that is exactly what he did, he added a news story pertaining to this forum about the fate of MBP.
Unfortunately it wont be made into another park, but at least it wont just sit there like an eye sore.
As long as it does not turn into Freestyle Families and Festival Park.

^ "Spooty" was a phrase uttered by Dagget and Norbert (aka the Angry Beavers) on an animated TV show (called, what else, Angry Beavers) that was incredibly funny.
Spooty is a synonym for stupid, dumb, unintelligent.

Great TR, I hope to visit Australia someday, and when I do, that park is on my list!

At least it isnt marketing overkill like what Merlin does.
Im also in that boat that hates Harry Potter, yet welcomes this new area. And I think alot of people are gonna react that way too.

Another quick Coastermania question:
The website for Coastermania does NOT list Club TPR as an approved club...
Yet Club TPR's site does list Coastermania as a ClubTPR benefit?
Just trying to get some info...

They will bother you. Just ignore them cause if you swat...
You will be heading back to those lockers to grab your ointment!!!

Maybe a small Splashboat ride.
Most parks have a flume & a Splash Boat.
Or maybe a little pond with a nicely themed bridge over it.
But I do like the Idea of a dark ride there with out door segments.
Call it the "Monster Plantation"

Well Im glad to see my former #4 going on to entertain more people.
I sure do miss my Deja Vu. I wonder if any of the Rocky Mountain Construction consultants are heading down there to make sure its installed correctly after the fabulous job they did with Aftershock...
-
Now the real question is if its a coaster or not.
If Jeff Johnson shows up at your door, then...

I dont know what shocks me more
This story about FMP not opening or that Ricky Martin is gay.
But seriously does this surprise any one? Shows once again that when Russia deals with money, it just doesn't work out...

I'm curious as to how they came about following Herschend and not another company. Why not Merlin, Parc or even Six Flags since its well known. I wonder if most of these companies were approached by CBS of if there was any time where a company could have went to them. More than likely all the companies were asked by CBS but I would still like to know if they had other theme park companies on their mind first.
I would suppose other operators in addition declined because:
Merlin is not an American Corporation (along with Parque Reunidos)
PARC is not "popular" enough (Would you have ever heard of Magic Springs/Darien Lake/Elitch Gardens if you were not an Enthusiast; Everyone has heard of Dollywood and Branson MS.)
As for Six Flags... I really don't know why they wouldn't say yes or be contacted. It would have been a great promo for the parks while pulling in a larger audience due to the fact everyone has heard of Six Flags. Maybe there are still some Warner ties at Six Flags. And no one knows ehat shapiro looks like.
Cedar Fair- Dick Kinzel is too old to have a reality show
Busch Parks- A subsidiary of Blackstone, dont know if this would have anything to do with that.
CBS probably did not approach Disney due to conflicts of Intrests.
Herschend kind of surprises me, but I would not have been suprised if it was Six Flags...

^ Thats gotta be the place.
It was so much better when it was a Malibu Grand Prix. My dad even still has his license from the Grand Prix track there.
In fact I won a Pinewood Derby Race in that checkered room...
-
I am betting on the hand held one.
Due to all the side to side shifting. And if its hand held, then why would it be the official one?
Just doesnt seem right...
Robb was also not there, so of course it would lack some quality.
-
^ well both would be a cause for Alarm!
I hope this is not true!!!
But if it is, then may God help Vekoma...

I just hope it doent be come a snooze fest on the post- MCBR run. Like Apollo does to an extent.
I cant wit to ride it!!!

At the end of Last nights episode they showed clips of this show
From what I saw was:
Silver Dollar City
Dollywood (may have been SDC, it was a quick clip)
The Duckboat tours (I am pretty sure it was Stone Mountain's tour, but could very well have been Chattanooga as well)
I cant wait to see the Duckboat tours section of the episode.

I found this one. Kind of old now
You: I have one sock on
Stranger: i have no socks on
You: why?
Stranger: im in my bed
You: oh, that makes sense. I don't wear socks in bed either
Stranger: where do you live
You: Canada (woot woot!!)
Stranger: we kicked ur a$$ in hockey b*tch
Stranger: and we hate hockey here
You: I don't watch Hockey, so it's ok
Stranger: we are officially better than you at everything
Stranger: FACT
You: I'M SORRY I COULDN'T HEAR YOU OVER MY HEALTH CARE PLAN.
Your conversational partner has disconnected.
Ohh. SALT!!!
Poll: GCI vs B&M Invert
in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Posted
Now if you wanna spend that much on one coaster then I suggest going for gold with GCI or The Gravity Group.
What I mean is $15 million can get you a World Record wooden coaster!
It cost 8.5 to build The Voyage, and the new Timberliners wont eat up the track like a PTC will. So 10 to 15 million could get you a record breaking coaster, whether it be speed, height or length! and the GP will eat it up, just because it will hold a record!
