I imagine a RMC version of The Boss would resemble, to a degree, Medusa down in Mexico City. Both coasters are similar and built around the same time. An out and back like the Eagle doesn't provide RMC with a whole out of options in my opinion. A twister would give them a better base to work from. Just my two cents. The Screamin' Eagle, if well maintained and given the proper TCL, is no where near the end of its lifespan. I would prefer to keep it as-is, it is a landmark and pretty much defines SFoMA/SFSTL.

Both of course.

Previous page HWFan commented how SFSTL is much like SFDK. I find that compelling to say the least. Just a general observation or is there something more hidden in the sentence. Hmmm?

I would think when the Ninja goes everyone will be happy, but what do I know.

I would have thought Tidal Wave would get yanked before Rush Street.

The Skyline will look good, especially at night, with the new ride. It would be nice if they did something for the 40th anniversary of the Screamin Eagle. At a minimum get the Chaser lights working again.

We all have one thing in common, we do want our home park to thrive and grow. Sometimes I lean on the negative side as well so I get where Prozach is coming from, but I believe we all share that common ground. I enjoy reading your posts HWFan, hope you don't leave the forum.

Six Flags over Hand-Me-Down USA

My only hope is that we follow Disovery Kingdom and get an RMC conversion on the Boss next year - they got a Super Loop 2015 and Roar RMC Conversion 2016. ...yeah, a pipe dream right

That sort of thinking is too complex for Six Flags, it has to be something like Fireball or similar

Sounds like everything is pointing to a Super Loop. ugh

Faulty electrical wiring?? sounds awesome

Well... that sucks

Even if it is RMC Topper Track on the Boss then I'd be happy.

Pretty simple, they had to re-ruse and continue the Motorcycle theme from when it was Evel Kneviel. American Thunder doesn't line-up with anything in the area, nor does the Log Flume. Names and theming are after-thoughts.

I hope SF Local and Corp Mgmt read these posts... pretty much somes up SFSTL perfectly. I agree our park is not getting completely ignored and I know it has improved, but it has got such a long way to go. http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=70777&start=10

When it was a 'Theme Park'

No other injuries were reported according to news sites. Glad to hear that... I was thinking he was hit by the Legs of the Passengers? if Not, what caused the trauma ... what hit him?

Is there much to discuss at this point? Nothing really happening at the park which would indicate anything for next year.

Seems like a simple task ... why should it take so long? If SF Corp denies things like this no wonder SFSTL is in the shape its in.

Was considering Kentucky Kingdom but now Louisville will just be a rest stop to Pigeon Forge.

Agreed, just trying to be optomistic. Oh, and I am completely freaking jealous of Dollywood today. Imagine if that was being built here (I know we don't have the landscape for that layout, I get it), I am sure many of us would stop complaining and maybe begin to go back to our local park

Bumper Cars......100% Yeah definitely Bumper Cars all the way! I miss them! And I really miss that awesome old building they were housed in! Like I have said several times in the past, a amusement park without Bumper Cars is like a Burger Joint that doesn't sell French Fries. I understand the old Bumper Cars had to go but they need to be replaced. The same can be said for a Traditional Swings ride but I guess Sky Screamer fills that role

Yeah the Park was hopping back in the late 70's/early 80's, all thanks to the Screamin' Eagle. I remember the $5 after 5 deal which was huge. I have some Newspaper clippings from back in those days (Media Day for Jet Scream), I will have to scan and post them.
