Legoland Florida Discussion Thread
coreyb replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I hope they rehab the displays along with the shade - many of the bricks are discolored and cracked from being in the Florida weather for 10 years. -
^^ I was there in June, and at that time, that's what all the seating was like. It was at least 3 of the same 4 food stations as in these photos, so I guess they've had a long soft-open - nothing indicated it was new or still in previews. The tables are bolted to the floor, and with the high exposed ceilings and hard floors, the noise really reverberates. The food was better than we'd been expecting.

Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

I'm sure the wait in line before going into the maze "primes the pump" as it were. -

MackManiac - Worlds first loop for karts
coreyb replied to Taron's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
This seems to be a different company from Mack Rides. -
I rode Hellcat yesterday and nothing looked too new. It was bouncy, but not jackhammery. Maybe a little rougher than Thunderhead. Certainly better than Zeus, which is the only coaster I've been on that I felt like I might die on. Not from falling off, just that my spine would get so rattled it would just give up.

What rides have you ridden in their debut season?
coreyb replied to Olsor's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I thought Lightning Rod was the only one, but after looking through my list, apparently I rode Python at SFA (Wild World at the time) in its first season there, 1993. Wouldn't have guessed it was a first season since there were closed rows with duct tape holding the OSTRs down. -
You Might Be A Coaster Nerd If....

You see "Loch Ness Monster" trending on Facebook and your first thought is Busch Gardens, not Scotland. -
Harvest Festival: Barton Orchards & Fun Park
coreyb replied to ejot's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The inside isn't ribbed (for your pleasure ), so it's actually fairly smooth; just slightly washboarded. The places I've gone on them had carpet remnants for mats. -
Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread

If Mount Olympus's Manticore hasn't tipped over yet, then a star flyer at Valleyfair should have very little maintenance-related downtime. -
The day after marathoning Expedition Everest with them, I dragged 4 teenagers I was chaperoning on the Barnstormer so that we could say we rode all 5 MK coasters in one day. As they pointed out, we were the only group without a small child.

What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?
coreyb replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Space Mountain with four very tired, happy kiddos, right after a walk-on Buzz Lightyear! - got all 5 MK coasters in yesterday!
