I did try, but since the pics are copyrighted to the photographer, the only way is to purchase them (tho some of them are amazing..in particular that one of the Astroneedle)

I searched for an Astroworld thread, and other than a trip report, and a video thread I started last year, couldn't find one, and wanted to share these awesome pics! My 30 year High School reunion is coming up soon, and in a "memory" page published last night, one of my HS friends posted a link to these FANTASTIC Astroworld pics (from 1968-1990). they are credited to Josh Burdick, and as a photo gallery on Smug Mug.. so will just link them in that way (since I don't know if my friend knows Burdick (maybe married to him nowadays?). regardless, the pics are too good to not share! Here's the full gallery:

it was renewed for a 2nd season before they even started filming. . that's why they are taking it so slow None of the characters are likable, except for the High School kid (I hope we see him again), and I suspect by the end of the "season" (2 more episodes), we'll lose a few more of the main cast thus far (barber's wife, ex-wife of lead guy, and junkie son all have "dead meat" stamped all over them). My only real problem with the show -- which has since been addressed elsewhere -- is that despite all the issues the main series had with characters of color. . . . for a show set in LA, by the end of Episode 2, ALL THREE Black Characters were dead. either malicious, or tone-deaf, by the showrunner. and they have been called to task for it. but I'm enjoying the show otherwise.

you can get just the HotDog (or Sandwich) for only $10 tho. that's still SUPER expensive, but for someone who doesn't eat fries, it worked out perfect, since i got my partner just the sandwich and myself the combo (and we split the fries/drink). . .so I can justify (in my head), $25 for a meal for 2. . .even tho it's still overpriced. all you have to do is ask for something separate (note at the top of the menu is says "all items may be purchased separately") So $10 for a hot dog..... What a deal! it IS cheaper tho

me and Roxxi. . when she was still a playful puppy.

I only recognize two of those Village People! what happened to Glenn and David Hodo???

Give him some slack, folks, he's a new member, and he's 14. don't hang him just because he's gotten tangled while figuring out the ropes Fame gave you links to the individual threads that will answer your questions. .but I'll chime in to add: I'm not a "Coaster Junkie" -- I can take them or leave them, and we often skip some big coasters when visiting parks depending on how we feel: (Dominator & Grizzly at Kings Dominion, Fahrenheit at Hershey Park, and Stinger at Dorney are just a few examples). we enjoy Theme Parks, so to us a coaster is just another ride to either go on, or not. Our favorite flats are Troika's and Enterprises, and topping the list: Log Flumes. as such, we don't really keep a coaster count, we just go to a park to enjoy it. . .

"Fat Person Seat" is kind of offensive. maybe try "Big Boy Seat" ? it sounds less judgmental. . but otherwise, great pics.

Have a wonderful time!

I'm guessing Crazy Legs rethemes and stays where it is. the Catwoman ride will fit where Batwing is now (unless it's staying. .but the announcement of Gotham expanding only references Batman and Mr. Freeze coasters alongside the new rides ). . . the Riddler is likely going in the spot where Flashback was, with the BumperCars building as the queue. just a guess.

I wonder that too! My guess is that Crazy Legs is getting a repaint as Harley. . but I also notice that Batwing is not mentioned. . so does that mean that Catwoman's Whip is going to be replacing that? (meaning net gain is only 1 ride . . .Riddler).

we were just at Kings Dominion in June, and chose to bypass Shockwave, Grizzly, and Dominator. I think even if we knew at the time that Shockwave was going to be closing? we still would have skipped it

You mean this one? It's great and does move! We get lots of compliments on it. Glad to have some fellow magnet lovers on here yep, that's it! our fridge is COVERED with magnets, from the Parks, and trips we take.

where did they announce Frisbee is going away? that's a shame, as it's one of my favorite rides in the park. but a Boardwalk, really does need a good coaster (so hopefully Pandemonium is gone)

we couldn't find a good coaster magnet, but did pick up one they have of the Ferris Wheel. . the not only rotates, but the individual cars spin too. . we love it.

I thought about riding it, but I always feel awkward riding kiddie coasters lol. I've missed quite a few credits due to this awkwardness not us

huh. . don't see Pandemonium in that pic.

shame you missed Woodstock Express at KD. . that was by far our fave woodie at the park, and a TON of airtime for a jr. coaster.

warning if you are "Testicularly blessed". . . don't ride unless you are wearing snug undies. those bunny hop hills, are Not kind, and I regretted having worn loose boxers

My feeling is that if we do open up tours again, we would probably start with Club TPR Members. all one can hope for! thanks. .

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll do a Club TPR eligible members tour in the next few years. I'd love to do some overseas parks, and my partner won't fly to Foreign lands. so my only chance I'll ever get to go to these bucket list places is likely on a TPR tour I'm not holding my breath, but I am crossing my fingers that maybe in 2016 you'll decide to do another tour !

If you mean disk, then hell yeah! no, I meant desk. . it looks like instructions for a desk you would buy at Ikea

I think it's a giant desk.
