If this was the "Top 5" show that aired about coasters today, it is re-running in the middle of the night sometime. If my memory serves me correctly, it was at 3 am, so you should be able to set a DVR for it still.

I don't think it serves any real purpose, but it seems like a kind of cool and unique effect.

The way it sounds they filmed a bunch of these for different television markets, but I saw this on the local Sacramento morning show today: Seaworld Manta Mania

Great to see progress being made on Ghost Town. From the Official Ghost Town Facebook Page: Making room for kiddy rides on Level Fun!

^ Thanks. Apparently the mobile link from the iPad didn't want to cooperate.

Me about 40 pounds heavier than I am now, stuck on Boomerang at SFDK for about a half an hour. That's my "pretending to be scared" face.

I may be the only person here who finds this interesting, but I just came across this and thought I'd share anyway. Lol. Gives a little insight into the food operations and teenage employees at SCBB.

Gee thanks...now I want Girl Scout cookies. I'm obviously not super worried about the details, it's just more of a curiosity and anticipation thing for me. Going to keep trying to raise money even if they stick me on Grizzly for 6 hours.

Been thinking the same thing for CGA.

Went on a first date yesterday and she said "your obsession with roller coasters isn't nerdy." I think I should marry this woman.

^ Jealous.

So, do people generally go clean the ocean every few days? Just sayin. Lol. It's also worth noting that that if Shouka were sent back to France (or Canada as one of the articles stated), that she would likely not be protected by the same standards US parks are held to.

I am just wondering if they have already explored all of their other options and are getting pressure from elsewhere as well. I am not a fan of losing Shouka either, so I hope that there are some other ideas still out there for them to explore.

I agree she is incredibly annoying (to say the least) but if there is a law behind it they obviously have to deal with the situation somehow. And as much as I hate to agree with the annoying dreadlock woman, there is something to be said for the principal of not having an animal in captivity alone.

Looks as though Dorney has released details. Still waiting for CGA and Kings Dominion.

Just curious what makes you think those flat rides are "weird?" I actually really like them as far as flat rides go. The fact that they are covered earns extra points for me in the summer. I'm not fully aware of the height restrictions in the back of the park, but wouldn't a nice wild mouse work well back in that area? Adds a family friendly coaster without too much height. That being said, I'm certain this wont happen at least any time in the near future, but it seems like a good thought to me.

Thanks Derek! Guess I had a lucky guess. Just sent you a PM with the link to my friend Teresa's donation page. She's a Team TPR'er too, and needs the donation more than I do.

I love that they're not wasting any time getting going on this.

Apparently you haven't heard the word that the GCI woodie has been approved, and barring any crazy obstacles seems to be moving forward.

http://www.facebook.com/groups/gtinthesky/ Comments in the threads of this Facebook group state that they are waiting to hit water in their wells before they can announce an opening date. While it definitely makes for some uncertainty, it sounds encouraging that there may be progress once water is hit.

If the carts didn't make money, they would be gone already. Case closed. From a business standpoint, I could see it making much more sense relocating Pandemonium to another park.
