Joker has been operating . . I just rode it last month.

^ Rockville High Theater is contained within DC Universe in that image. so . . . . Wayne Manor? Hall of Justice? hmmmmm

that Remy shirt is adorable. . but the shoulder ruffles mark it as a ladies shirt only . . do they have it in Men's too? as usual, the food all looks delicious! and it looks like a beautiful day (tho I do see the raindrops and umbrellas in the background of some pics. . but it IS Florida), so y'all appear to have had a great time. thanks for the pics.

Everything from Rockville High to SKC will be part of DC Universe. Rockville will go from the train tracks to Hustler. so pretty much what I guessed then. weird that it means Poltergeist is gonna remain odd thing out then. . . haunted plantation in Rockville.

and so they are being very careful with words, to tease. (Whirligig: GONE!) so I wonder if Rockville really IS staying as they said? I mean, they announced an update of Hustler (tho not necessarily a re-theme). and both Batman and Wonder Woman have entrances on the main street in Rockville.. . so I gotta wonder if they are going to retheme the majority of Current Rockville (the main street) as either Gotham or Metropolis, and tie it into the new DC section. maybe just keep Scream, Huslter and Rockville High theater and keep calling that small section Rockville? hmmmm

It's probably getting a retheme to fit in with the new DC Universe area. Just as a follow up, the park confirmed tonight that it's getting a retheme to Crime Wave. that's WONDERFUL. . as I loved the one at SFoG. . such a great theming Gotham City Crime Wave at SFoG

never been to this park, but wow, this really makes me wanna go in 2019! well done Six Flags. . almost all the announcements today have gotten me really excited.

this looks great, although it does appear (at least to me) that the hang times in the loops & JoJo are slowed down for effect in the animation. but it looks fantastic, if maybe a bit too meandering in the last third. . . makes me wanna go back next year to Carowinds.

well. . they sucked me back in. . . LOL I'm $270 poorer, but we now have 2019 Gold Passes (including parking at all parks), both have dining plan, and I added Picture Plan (it was only $20 more!). Grrrrr for "service fee" on top of taxes, since printing the dang things out myself. . but yep, the ride announcement was all the impetus I needed to pull the trigger on Season Pass renewal. I wish we went often enough, or nick was thrill-seeker enough that we would benefit from Memberships. . but honestly? Season Passes work just fine for what we do at the park. so happy they are still offering them for 2019.

Based on the building shown in the concept art, I’m guessing it’s the former Thomas Town/Whistlestop Park. EDIT: You beat me to it, SFOG1991! Nevermind the building. . LOL. . the Pandemonium sign, is just a retheme of the current Whistlestop Park gate! LOL so yeah, looks like it's going there.

I like Larson Loops, so this is a nice flat addition. surprised not so see them announce they will be open Year Round, like SFFT did. I mean, I wasn't expecting 365 (SFFT is only going to weekends year round). . but as the Original Park, I was expecting similar year round ops. Hmmm. . maybe that's still coming?

yeah. . I noticed that too. Whirlygig is clearly there in the promo art, right where it has been. so either something happened mechanically that they are closing it, or maybe they are moving the basketball game there? () he announced it was closing tho, so we have to take him at his word that it's going away. (hopefully they get a similar replacement tho, since my Spouse loves riding those) Great fit for the park, which as other noted, lost it's Frisbee a few years ago. I'm happy w/ this announcement.

from the animation, it looks like a Mobius track, and the "Pit Stop" is to give the original train something to look at and give them time to load the "fresh" train, while you get ready to race again. this looks great, and very interesting.

if you make him say "MUIBRETTY" he has to go back to the 5th dimension.

maybe they're moving in a Mr Freeze? (it *would* fit.. being right there by Batman, and could be raised so the pathway goes under it). I'm sure that's not it. . just thinking out loud

hmm. . whatever it is, I'm ready. and planning on buying 2019 season passes tomorrow

I was gonna ask was the fair open? since it looked so deserted. .but I guess that could have been the overcast weather. glad you were able to make the most of it. . and explaining they had 2 of most flats helped me understand, but this still confuses me. what is this ride called? 1001 Nachts? Magic Carpet? Ali Baba? Tales of the. . . (something I can't read)?

I could *barely* (and I mean barely) walk on the last day I was at CP with TPR. . and I rode Maverick during ERT SIX times. does not hurt at all, as the restraints hit on the shoulders rather than on the legs. now, that said? some of the transitions can be a little jarring if you aren't prepared for them, but lean into them and smooth as glass.

thanks! I'm working on the next installment (Kings Dominion). . but that one will take me a bit to finish up, I think. so shooting for Friday update yeah, the tea-cups operator was very enthusiastic. I'm not sure why we didn't ride that! (or Tradewinds). . . we just did Tempesto & the Rapids (once) then Apollo quite a bit while in that area.

Yikes. Do they pat you down or what? Or do they just ask you and hope you don't lie? (Sorry I'm asking so many stupid questions... I have yet to go to a park with such a draconian policy) this is the silliest thing to be obsessing over. . . just put your damn phone in a fluffy bunny. they are right there across from the entrance to Twisted Timbers (next to Apple Zapple entrance). sheesh.. . it really isn't that hard. why in the world would anyone try to sneak their phone on anyways? the way the restraints sit, you don't want ANYTHING in your pockets, zippered or not.

and since love sharing music. . for those not familiar, here are their most recognizable songs (arguably) Omniflux [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] Lead Into Gold [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] (and . .tho he didn't play it, "Idiot") [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] and OhGr: [youtu_be] [/youtu_be]

OhGr (fronted by ex-Skinny Puppy lead singer Ogre), with Lead into Gold (Paul Barker from Ministry & Revolting Cocks solo band), and Onmiflux (new singer. . who was GREAT). the show last night was so good! like OMG good.. tho Ogre himself was like a drunk cat up there on the stage -- in particular when he beaned himself with the mike stand (after knocking it over multiple times, along with lights, stage props and other stuff) LOL He's fixated on wearing a dead bunny-rabbit mask (tying into the new album, Tricks, I suppose) which he wore for almost the entire set. . but at least he FINALLY took it off for the encore. Paul Barker performing as Lead Into Gold was *brilliant*. . so good, I bought both vinyls he had for sale. And even opener Omniflux was very good. great show, and glad there was a good turn out. here's some pics. me and Paul Barker, who was just hanging out in the club. Really nice guy, and the only member of RevCo that I hadn't gotten to meet when they were in Austin back in Nov. . . so now that is remedied. Lead Into Gold Omniflux (who I think might be dating Paul Barker), came out as guest guitarist for several Lead Into Gold songs too. her opening set was fantastic the light columns behind Lead into Gold made for some great visuals OhGr 's Ogre, in full bunny mask as political as they got. . .. . tho they are a bit political. caught the lights just bright enough to see some of the rest of the band. finally for the encore, the mask came off! it was the road managers Bday, so they gave him a birthday paddling

Grona Lund. they kept the other one when they built Full Tilt? hmm. .thought they took away the standard drop tower. maybe Fiesta would do something like that then. .

Hershey Park they are right next to each other on the same pad. .that's one drop tower complex. in the same way Scream at Fiesta has 3 towers, together. I'm talking two drop towers in separate areas of the park. . . and before the "critics" get out. . no, I'm not talking a kiddie drop tower also in the kids section.

^ as someone who just did CP for 3 days with an injured Quad. . . I can imagine how that must have been with a bad knee! that's a lot of walking. (I did LOTS of breaks, and mainly rides that didn't involve sitting down / bending leg to get in. . tho "hanging rides were an issue too (hello Raptor & Windseeker), unless I braced my injured leg out with the good leg). also helped to ride things after resting my leg a bit, or in the morning before too many issues with pain. glad you seemed to have a good time despite the ride issues.
