Nice PTR. ...so you were able to get a solo ride on Wildfire, cool. Last year I was able to get two rides by myself on Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood.

Very good PTR!!! ...a little long , but well worth the time to read.

^^Very true. People should never judge a book by its cover, so don't judge a coaster till you've ridden it.

As usual, very entertaining Chuck. Can't wait for the next update.

Nice PTR!!! ...but 32 degrees is too cold for me and I wonder what the temp was with the wind chill factored in.

Nice PTR!!!! Heck, I live less than 15 mins. from the fairgrounds and didn't go , so thanks for the pics. Edit: I was going to go, but I believe State had a football game the day I had planned.

I think that sums it up. ...and I would go on a weekday in late spring.

Thanks for the pictures of the tour, Dave. I'm glad to see that Mystery Mine is coming along nicely. I know I keep saying it, but I can't wait to ride it next year.

My list: 1.Superman-ROS (SFNE) 2.El Toro 3.Storm Runner 4.Phoenix 5.Apollo's Chariot 6.Thunderhead 7.ROTM (USF) 8-14.the B&M coasters in Florida.

Yea, I have to go with the Superman guy at SFNE.

I would have to go with Superman-ROS (SFNE), or maybe El Toro. ....but not SFGADV.

True, but I'm going by Dollywood's past history. ...Mystery Mine looks like a good one and we know about Thunderhead, so I'd take my chances.

I would rather they wait a year or two and add a brand new coaster, but that's just me.

LOL!!!! That's pretty bad.

Very nice video. ...but having to hear Eejanaika again and again gets annoying halfway through the video.

Robb and Elissa are probably more excited about Carrabbas now, than Griffon.

^^^^ ...since you brought up Intamin Accelerators, how the heck is Storm Runner (#39) rated below KK(#28 ), TTD(#10), and Xcelerator(#35). I guess I'm just biased.

How about the fact that operations on El Toro absolutely blow? Both coasters being equal (which I think they are) I certainly would have cast my vote for the ones with far superior operations. I tend to vote for the ride itself, but that's just me. ...As for the golden ticket awards for top coasters , it just makes me appreciate Mitch's poll that much more.

^Yea, the title of the next strip could be snakes on a plane on the way to Liseberg.

Worked fine for me. Man, that video never gets old.

I say die, but you can have the whole thing just a dream. ...Corny, I know.

LOL, they really are putting things out early.

Flying Turns is coming along nicely, just one more reason to head back soon.

My guess would've been that only the coaster would have been relocated, but who knows. All that matters is that CF bought the park, and that FOF is open again.

^Yea, you can really judge a ride by it's lift hill.
