Are all the SF parks experiencing this sorta thing?? Only works when it is sunny???? Good Lord! Ridiculous. I love all the Holiday World billboards around town by the way. I hope many St Louisians will visit that park this season.

All this VR stuff is a gimmick. They are trying to inject new life on old, stale attractions. It won't last because technical issues will ensue and the 'experience' probably isn't that cool anyway. On another note... I live down by South County Mall and the local carnival is back. I don't see their Fireball attraction up this year, wonder if Six Flags asked them not to put it up? They have had the Fireball attraction every year (except this one) in recent memory. Hmmm

That aint a bad idea at all!

^^ yup ^^

You must be talking about that 300 foot Mule-Go-Round

^^ ya don't ^^

... If you build It, they will Come ....

^^ Interesting Stuff ^^ My guess is Tidal Wave will be gone next year and a Zack Spin 4D 'whatchamacallit' in its place.

I'd guess attendance is probably at million every year, maybe a bit lower. This is where the argument comes in... 1. when attendance rises then SF will begin to invest big money into the Park or 2. if SF invests big money then attendance will rise. I happen to agree with #2. If you built it they will come.

I would argue longer than that, I'd say 20 years. The Boss was a cheap alternate to a Hyper. Then we lost our Hyper to SFOG. All the frigging hand-me-downs from Texas (Astroworld, Dallas). I guess the two highlights are American Thunder and Justice League (when it is working). My family used to have passes but we haven't renewed in years. Instead we road trip every summer for a weekend at another park in the Midwest. It was decided a weekend trip is better than a season at SFSTL.

Not much else to discuss after this statement.

I'd be satisfied with that ... the smoothness of AT with the Boss' layout, not a bad combination. Oh, btw... the Boomerang thing - hope the injured folks make a full recovery. What a POS, been a headache since day one.

What's the point in adding lighting packages to any ride? The park is barely open in the dark except for FF. That would be true for most parks, yet they have them. C'mon - putting Chaser Lights on the Eagle can't be that hard to do... Heck, give me the strands of lights ... I'll do it for free

Here comes that "world's tallest mule-go-round" rumor again Ugh! You know we will end up with one of those Zac Spin deals... last summer there was an online Survey I took that had one of those coasters in it, and I believe Great Adventure's survey as well. Well... they got one and I believe SFSTL is next.

Surprising, wonder why?

So they sell, sell, sell these Dining Passes but don't have the infastructure to support the increased demand? what a crock! All about the mighty dollar if you ask me.

Foreshadowing? Fireball requires a lot of energy. It goes around and Around And Around AND AROUND - Forwards and Backwards too! which does limit re-branding the Ride later. Hmmm, Six Flags put themselves in a hole on this one

I was hoping to make a few of you laugh, but yeah I will still beat this dead horse on occasion. And TrippinBillie is correct on all points.

Seriously? Other parks in the chain are getting RMCs or similar - but hey, at least we get double rides on the Eagle. What wrong with double rides on Eagle. Allow me to answer that rhetorical question. Nothing. We got Justice League last year. Fireball, general improvements, and Holiday in the Park this year. Looks like a good year to me. Some people just have to complain!! That's because we are very Hyper-sensitive to what the other parks are getting, and the Screamin' Eagle isn't as 'High Per' those other coasters we envy. ...Catch what I am sayin' Rode Goliath at SFOG last weekend and the weekend before that too. Had a great time. very happy for you

Yeah I'm thinking over by the Boneyard which is still on the Hill.

I always thought a Hyper would look great atop of that hill, hmmm but that's crazy talk, a Boomerang and Super Loop is the way to go. Glad I'm not in charge.

It would be cool to see it reborn and have a single circuit two lift design like Twisted Colossus.

So what's the latest news with Gwazi? Is it still standing there without any future plans?

everything appears taller sitting on top of that hill, even the eagle looks much taller than 110 feet.
