Was Thunderbolt not a Zamperla creation? Anyway thanks for putting this list together, it's going to be a good year for new attractions. -

HWFan, I remember you mentioning Batman getting new paint for 2014. Are they still going through with it? -

It is the one from Knott's. I don't think it's been confirmed, Unless you have a source, in which case please share. -

The Most Shocking Ride Removals
BigBomer replied to Kingsislandfreak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Maliboomer shocked me, probably because I was just getting into amuesment/theme parks and that S&S was my first company that I loved (still do). Also the Texas Chute Out/Flashback removal kinda suprised me. Not really Chute Out because it was quite old and those rides are disapearing but Flashback because it wasn't needed for Texas Skyscreamer. Hopefully we'll see what replaces Flashback next week though. -

Photo TR: TPR's Texas/Midwest Trip 2013
BigBomer replied to Erik Johnson's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
You are correct. Fiesta Texas and Sea World both have protested the firework ban but to no avail. The only time they can fire off fireworks is during a special event for which they seek permission, or right after it rains a lot. -

On the other hand I thought Sonic's pretzel hot dog was disgusting.

Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
BigBomer replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Well, I'm 5'4 and about 110 pounds and BTR clones, especially in the corkscrews, do produce some headbanging. But for some of my bigger friends, (5'10 and 220ish. Yes, I'm friends with some linebackers) it's completely headbanging free. It's odd. But that's what I've found on the SFOT clone. The SFOT one is the only one I've gotten head-banging on. -

All the CP fanboys would explode. (This was for Pie but it works for DarienLaker too.) What if the woman never fell out of NTAG?

After eating Five Guys for the first time today I definitely agree with them being ranked number one.

15 "Wacky Roller Coasters!"
BigBomer replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Nice list, I am unfortunately able to say I have yet to ride any of these coasters. I was however surprised nothing PAX made the list. -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
BigBomer replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Has anybody thought about The Bat reference possibly meaning that the ride could have two lift hills? It's a wild idea but with the claim now possibly being "World's Longest invert" it does seem like a possibility. Just a thought... -
Liseberg Discussion Thread
BigBomer replied to viking86's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This Project is the most I've eve been excited for something I'm probably not going to be riding anytime soon. Thanks for passing up a ride on Balder for the pictures, I know how tempting that must be.
