Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
LJGoBlue replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^The thing I don't understand about that though is why there is a gigantic plot of land cleared on Millennium Island. I was just at the park yesterday and I got a good view of the clearing from the top of MF. The area is pretty large and it appeared there was some kind of backhoe or something down there. We also saw the mystery "track" from the top of the hill on Maverick and I'm not sure if it is track or not. It may just be something for the Halloween theming. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
LJGoBlue replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well I am going there tomorrow with a friend and we have both decided to do a little bit of investigating on what exactly is going on here. -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

^Yes, but that means six more weeks of heated discussion and speculation... -

Someone else can post a picture for me, I like guessing better. -

Name That Park!!

This is a huge guess, but is it Gorky Park in Moscow, Russia? -
Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
LJGoBlue replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Sitting on the brake run on Magnum the guy in front of me and my friend was talking about how Mean Streak used to be where Magnum is and Magnum used to be where Mean Streak was and just last year the picked them up with big cranes and switched their positions. We started cracking up at the stupidity. -

Canada's Wonderland 2008 Pictures
LJGoBlue replied to Cyber.Fiber's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Behemoth is such a photogenic coaster. CW overall looks to be very photogenic, or you are an excellent photographer. -
Photo TR: Cliff's (Albuquerque, NM)
LJGoBlue replied to dj snow's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Nice TR, Cliff's looks like a fun little park. P.S.- I like how you included the little fun facts throughout the report, such as the one about the New Mexico Rattler entrance. -
Themeparkman's Summer 2009 TR's!
LJGoBlue replied to themeparkman25's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Nice TR's I really want to visit WoF and Valleyfair!, Prowler and Renegade look really fun. -
I agree with everyone on the being staged part. I saw the first episode and it was slightly cheesy and not as "random" as they say it is. Overall, the show isn't that bad, but it would be better if they mixed up the parks every week.

Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
LJGoBlue replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
All of this speculation makes me really excited for KD. Hopefully we are not dissapointed here. So far this looks and sounds like another reason to make my first trip to KD next summer. -
The Univeristy of Michigan Football Thread
LJGoBlue replied to LJGoBlue's topic in Random, Random, Random
Haha I like the joke a lot, while OSU may win the Big Ten every year they don't represent well at all in the bowl games. The Big Ten is really losing a lot of respect though. With Michigan in the process of rebuilding from the ground up all there is left is an overrated Ohio State team and Penn State who can't compete outside of the Big Ten. Sadly, the Big Ten is no longer one of the top conferences in college football. Hopefully that will change in a few years when all of the underclassmen become juniors and seniors and Michigan rises back to the top. -
I don't know if anyone else on here is very big into U of M football or even College Football for that matter, but if you are post your thoughts here. I would like to start out by saying that although they may not win the Big Ten this year, I think Michigan will still be solid and go maybe 7-5 regular season. I think Coach Rodriguez has done a great job with recruiting so far and I am very anxious to see both Tate Forcier and Denard Robinson play next year.

Photo TR: A trip to Cedar Point 09
LJGoBlue replied to coasterfreaksrttd's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
When did you go? I live like 45 minutes away and I was just there June 30th. Nice TR by the way. -
What have you been hit in the head with?
LJGoBlue replied to zaneymon's topic in Random, Random, Random
Just back in April I got hit on the head with a 1.6K fiberglass discus. I was between my turns throwing at a track meet and one of my friends was messing around with it and accidently let go of it. Luckily it mostly hit my ear. My ear was twice the size of the other for two weeks and I still need to get it drained from the cauliflower ear it caused. -
Hey I'm John from Oregon, Ohio or Boregon as I enjoy calling it. I live about 45 minutes away from Cedar Point so that is my home park. Being that close to Cedar Point really got me into roller coasters as we normally visit at least ten times a year. I'm finally persuading my parents to take me around the midwest to visit other parks. My first park outside of Cedar Point and WDW will be Kings Island later this month and I decided to join TPR to learn about all of the great parks all around the world.

Kings Island on July 30th and 31st to finally ride Diamondback -
Wow Grona Lund looks freakin' awesome. Insane looks like a really intense and exciting ride. The thing that amazes me is how all four of those coasters are almost intertwined. It is so compact.
