You're missing the point. -

I would strongly urge everyone here to NOT wear a paperbag. I'm surprised you weren't asked to leave to park. -

As an outfielder, that HUNTINGTON PARK sign behind home plate would drive me crazy. If you get a chance Slugger Stadium in Louisville is really nice too. It's an old train station. -
Good call. As stated before, you really need to look a member's post history before you go making threads like this. There's more going on in lot of these cases than everyone knows. In this case, the OP had been warned earlier thatday, to which he apologized (see the 13-17 year old thread), among a few previous warnings. This complaint would have been better served in a PM.

Unless you know the full story behind a poster, perhaps you should not start such threads.

^ I'd start it cool. Not cold. Although it's a trippel (an odd sounding one at that). Id' say try one glass cooled, and one warm and see how you like it. That's the most important thing anyway. Those Beer Advocate people take themselves way too serious. I don't always trust bars on how they serve stuff, as they're typically wrong. If they serve everything in a pint glass, chances are they don't know what they're doing. And with this note, warn Shannon immediately after consumption!

Weird. I wonder if he's in Peoria now, as they moved Sandberg to manage the Tennessee Smokies. Jody was just up here for Jenkins and Maddux's number retirement ceremony, so he must be close by, but I can't find him on any of the MiLB sites either. -

DBru's correct, and there's other reasons. -

hobbit, you are on the verge of receiving a 24 hour "time out." Please read the posting rules and the terms of service stickies in the main forum. When you're done with those, read the Game Forum Etiquette announcement here. -
See there's stuff on GH:WT that I'd never heard of too, so it was cool to me. I finally picked up RB1 cheap a few moths ago, and I love the way they've implemented DLC and track packs to be available to updated versions of the game. GH is severely lacking in DLC and being able to uses tunes in multiple versions of the game. The fact that they aren't making Smash Hits a large track pack disc shows they don't "get it." Overall, I like both games, but I'm now leaning towards the RB franchise.

He didn't say it was necessary. Unless you're going 200mph, spoliers don't do anything. That's why they're fairly pointless on street vehicles. Matt, I'm down with the making your car "stand out." Honestly, if there's that many other people doing it, does it really stand out anymore?

^ I think they put the height restriction on the Press Pass. I'll have to look to confirm tonight. The dryer is right out of the exit which is an upcharge. Supposedly this version has a better capacity then the one at Dollywood, which will help. In other SFGAm news, The Dark Knight has also seen some attention, and the capacity for that has been worked on as well.

Today was Media Day at Six Flags Great America for their newest attraction, Buccaneer Battle. For those unfamiliar with the park, it's in the old footprint of Deja Vu. Right between Hometown Square and County Fair. So, it's theming is a bit out of place, but the attraction overall more than makes up for it, and you don't notice it. It's a splash battle ride from MACK that is heavily themed to pirates. Who doesn't like a good pirate, right? There's 10 "ships" (which are awesome by themselves), that seat eight, each seat with a cannon to fire upon targets, and those that choose to fire back at you from the sidelines. And yes, the cannons for the general public wussies on the midway (like me) are FREE! Between the water effects, and the cannons along the midway, you'll be soaked. Six Flags has got a winner on their hands for family fun, which is definitely what they're leaning towards. It's also always nice to see additions other than *gasp* coasters at your home park. I've always loved SFGAm's flats and flumes, so this was really nice to see. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. Other items to note, are the new Cyber Cafe, and their new recycling program. Keep your eyes peeled for the not so hard to miss Coke bottle recycling bins this year. Thanks again to Six Flags, and Dan who once again put up with me for few hours! [coastertube]http://www.themeparkreview.com/coastertube/play.php?vid=Buccaneer_Battle_dpau[/coastertube] Buccaneer Battle. A great new addition. Check it out! Seriously. More Flags. More Fun. We stayed so long they made us clean up.... Joey? Think he'll play Final Countdown? For an upcharge you can dry off with Cameron. Another shot of the station. I call this 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Overall look of the area. A lot different without Deja Vu. This is how I showered this morning. Attention to detail. Nathan likes to make you wet too. These ships are just so cool! This is pretty much the entire course. Or would you prefer crabs? This sexy Aussie will make you wet. Yeah, that's not good, dude. As per Dave. Anything with sharks is kick a$$. I'm Mr. Angry Squid Who Will Soak You. Give me some candy! He'll never find a jar of dirt there. You betcha! Proof that Mr. Six is evil. Theming that will make you wet. Er....get you wet. The adventure begins (and the cannons are active at this point!) That Blackbeard was one wise dude. The queue. Of which we were told should move quickly, as this has higher capacity than older splash battles. Awesomely themed station. and then it was off to search for booty. A quick ceremony with Mr. Six.... The festivities began with, what else? Pirates! Nerd shot Evil not Dan approved wetness level cannons. The "ships" are excellently themed, right down to the sails. I think they may be here....or I have a bad case of deja vu. Uh oh. There be pirates lurking about.... By this bird. *Sqwauk!* Keylime Cove was represented. Which you can eat while looking at pictures of SFGAm coasters! Free Wi-fi and yummy treats! The new Cyber Cafe at in Orleans Square. Can't start a report without this, right?

Um, that's music. It is repetetive.

Obvisouly, you don't read larry's posts too often. I'll just tell you in my parent's house, if I could spend my money on non essential items like goofy spoilers for a car, they'd slap me upside the head, and would have made me start paying rent.

^ Pepsi products do that to you. -
^ After further review, you're probably right. That is why I drove some awful cars back then. Cheaper to insure. And I don't need a car to define me.
