I think rumor has it that it went back to Wieland Schwarzkopf in Germany and may end up touring the fair circuits again. Take this with a grain of salt though.

^That has to be the shortest contract ever. Guys, I'm starting to question the intellect of the average enthusiast that slops up every little thing a hoax site puts out. I have to give kudos to the guy behind Natimi.

That Tornado looks awesome with the dragon in front of it spewing out water. I'm eagerly awaiting the final product, especially since the renderings look amazing.

^I have to agree with you there Casey, I sat in the back train, middle row and all of my rides on The Beast at night were amazing.

I hope this park's obstacle course update is going to be a segment on the DVD. It would be funny to have commentary on it and make it like an episode of MXC. Great update Robb.

When I saw the topic's title, I could only think of this. So a baby seal walked into a club...

Tomi, so true about the buses. Although, at least you forgot the claustrophobia of the window seat if you're crammed. Sorry Will, I felt cramped every time you used your laptop on the bus. But at least I didn't get whacked on the head while on the bus. Keep up the Midwest strips!

I've barely seen pictures of Gilroy Gardens. It seems awesome in terms of family parks and those Circus Trees have to be the craziest trees I've ever seen. It's like what Cypress Gardens wishes to be, only with landscaping instead of carny rides. ParaKnott's Great America, still a pretty decent park, just needs a "real" new coaster (Survivor doesn't count). Six Flags Discovery Kingdom still looks like a wonderful Six Flags park, despite your report of the park operating like the old Six Flags. Looks like you and your crew had an awesome time still. Great pictures.

$12 for a haircut. And guys, its another bowl cut (tips crown).

Guys, I'm not sure whether or not you've heard this, but Nantimi was a fake site. Still surprised some enthusiasts have been taking it seriously.

^Monday-Thursdays in September are not a peak time for operation for the rides and slides. Kids are back in school and its not the tourist season yet. If the park still operated the rides then, they'd be losing money. So why not just operate the least expensive part of the park? And to prove another point, SFMM (a park that could be open all year), has a limited weekends only schedule during the winter months because of operation costs/lack of guests.

Soren, you're forgetting about the cloaking devices. Another great update, there's just something about Robb in pink angel wings that makes me giggle like a schoolgirl.

No, it had done quite the opposite affect though! Have you taken a test on a scantron today?

Wow, Busch has been uptight lately with loose articles, even IN the station! I don't know why Busch is so uppity about a video on YouTube which was nothing more but "Ha, he's stuck!" and the ops messing around. Sure, theres the negative stigmata, but I doubt a silly YouTube video taken with a cellphone would do that much damage to Busch's reputation. I don't see how the restraint was tampered with unless it was by the mechanic. Then, on to the punishment, a bit harsh if you asked me. Sure, they should have been booted, but not banned for one or more years. That's just crazy.

Cameron, you've made me pass out with laughter (and that's good in more ways than one).

The candy factory explosion sealed the deal for me.

As if this wasn't surprising. I better do a credit run to Cypress very soon.

People with extremely poor hygiene. On my first day of the job as a cashier at a supermarket, it wasn't bad and this was the only peeve. Two people (one fat woman in a motor scooter and a redneck with the biggest beer gut I've seen) walk up to my register and instantly within a 50 feet range was the most foulest smell I've smelt. They filled the air with the smell of rotten cheese and piss. Ugh. Other than that, today was a good day.

Tomi, just saying thank you for closing down the Rock-O-Planes when we were just about to get on! Just kidding, great update of Coney Island.

The Waterfall Launch ride seems like a family drop tower enclosed in a waterfall structure. The zipline thing seems to be something Setpoint would make. Again, at least Busch Gardens Africa is getting a new flat ride. Now that's a shocker!

As I still kind of miss Python, Jungala seems like a worthy replacement. It was about time Congo got a massive rehab and this is it. For a kids area, it looks pretty awesome and it was about time some new animal exhibits went in. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Recent one of me. Hey look guys, BOWL CUT! King of the bowl cut!

Quoted for the truth. Cornball was just an overall fun woodie with nice pops of air and a nice twister section.

It's always been ridiculous. No offense Ryan. That means a lot coming from the King of the Bowl Cut! I'm sorry, I just have to laugh at myself. Bowl cuts aren't that ridiculous, are they?

It's always been ridiculous. No offense Ryan. Great update and I totally want that Mario block plush. Think of the infinite lives!
