Probably replace the Terminator attraction? -
That only leaves Michigan's Adventure and CGA. Not surprising for MA, but didn't Cedar Fair say the three parks they are looking at for major improvement included California's Great America? Why hasn't their been any leaks about what could be coming to CGA for next year? The 3 parks with growth are Carowind's, California's Great America, and Valleyfair.

Weird Coaster Facts

According to RCDB.com, The last 3 coasters opened on March 15, 2004 and 2008 http://rcdb.com/4547.htm -
I am not a fan of how people on here trash on Six Flags for declining attendance and revenue but turn the other cheek when Cedar Fair and SeaWorld parks also have declining attendance/revenue and/or both. We don't need 2 lane roads on here. 1 is more than enough. Either trash all chains or trash no chains. And if Six Flags is down cause of rude customer service, What is Cedar Fair and SeaWorld Parks excuse? SeaWorld said it was because Diagon Alley opened late and Cedar Fair blamed it on Flooding at Valleyfair (Build a Wall around that place already!) and power outage at Cedar Point. FYI, I am not a Six Flags apologist as I believe they do very stupid things but when other chains do the same and nobody talks about it, My red flag goes up.

In 2009, Cedar Fair wanted to sell Valleyfair and Worlds of Fun to pay off the debt it acquired from the Paramount acquisition. I guess that shows how low VF was on Cedar Fair's priority list a few years ago. I also heard somewhere that Six Flags was considering purchasing Valleyfair in the late nineties, but they decided not to because it was too small for them. They also tried to sell California's Great America (And did and then didn't?). My how times have changed.
