That's a great idea. Hadn't thought of that, but the closest Floorless is actually Dorney or KD. It would certainly go over well with the GP. Great idea! ^ I just don't understand WHY you think there is room between the woodies. I don't see it. I'm just basing it on the park map. The current Wheel of Fortune site and some land behind it.

Coaster 25x. If nothing else, I end up in the News for 15 seconds. Erase all history of Disney Parks Erase all history of Legoland Parks -
Lifetime Passes

Estimating an Annual pass at $1,000 and multiplying it x 25= $25,000. So you would need to visit between 264 and 278 times to make it worth it. -
I agree with you. Plus HW offers a lot to those who cannot navigate the park on foot. Like SDC, I saw golf carts for rent (unless that changed/perhaps was a special event). Put in a few flats or a new roller coaster and be prepared for the onslaught of visitors Surprised Holiday World hasn't built a Hotel yet.

Be interesting to see a Matt O Hotel with Indoor Waterpark. Can't be worse than Mt. O's Bay of Dreams -
How long has this ride been planned? Will there be a test seat outside? Will there be lights in the tunnel? Why did you pick the name Goliath? A couple of these were answered from interviews back in late August. They chose the name Goliath because they felt it was fitting for the tallest wooden coaster. There will be a test seat outside. Gary Pohlman of maintenance said the ride was in planning for a couple years. I'll ask about the lights in the tunnel though. Good question! I couldn't make it cause I was almost passed out from walking in 90 degree weather and no sleep for 24 hours.

Will there be ANY theme to match the train design or will it just be generic? Was there really any discussion about giving American Eagle the Iron Horse or was it just a coverup? Will igNite be returning? What were the clues in the teaser videos, since I don't know if anyone figure them out? I'll ask about Ignite and the theme. Brandon said in an interview on August 29th that the rumors about American Eagle were started when a staff member put up fliers at the station that the blue side would be closing early. That was just a notification for the staff to let them know that was the last day before they switch the blue train around backwards. I thought this was just about Goliath, But since you opened the Floodgates: - Do they plan to repaint Batman? - Can Eagle Red run backwards? - What is a Ride that Great America thought about but never happened? - Are there plans to finish X-Flight's Hanger? - Can Glow in the Park Parade return? - Did SFGAm decide Batman backwards or did B&M offer it to SFGAm? - Will Screams & Dreams be out on DVD/ How did you come up with the idea?

We're hoping there might be a chance for a former flat ride or two making a comeback in 2014. We just don't know right now if Kings Dominion has the greenbacks budgeted to do that for next year. They have a pretty full plate right now with general improvements happening in 3 of the 5 areas in the park for 2014. Given that this commercial is promoting the new "Apple Turnover" (Enterprise) ride and other new stuff for the season, this ad probably ran in the spring when the park was in weekend only operations. You can always go to Six Flags America for their New Coaster, New Ride, and Re-Themed area.

Any lapbar trains on looping coasters look great.
