Hydroblasted was destroyed they did not keep any of the pieces so I doubt it will come back Doesn't have to be the same pieces, could just be all new pieces and new layout with the same name.

Oooh I know, Cedar Fair buying an RMC. How about the first RMC launch coaster?

3,500 feet would be an ideal length for a new coaster, I don't think it would be anywhere near 4,000 feet. That's banshee territory right there. But like I said before, it would be nice for VF to get something that has never been done before. The park would get so much publicity.

I wouldn't mind seeing hydroblaster come back, same layout although maybe at a toilet bowl at the end to finish it off?

Besides the B&M invert, I really want to see valleyfair get a coaster that has never been done before, the park could really use the publicity. It would be nice to see TPR have a record breaking media day at VF.

You can see it from the top of Renegades lift hill.

Just a thought I had about Excalibur...I think we all know by now that Excalibur no longer has their 2nd train on the track. I noticed today that the train was in the back corner behind the lift hill and the trains were covered and also the parts of the train were de-attached. What could this mean? I know the ride doesn't get a lot of attention but there really has to be more to this story. Also, how much of the land behind Renegade does VF actually own? I'm curious with all of the dirt and digging I've seen back there. I'm hoping to hear more from captain unknown about the back in the park rumors!

Where on Excalibur did you sit where you experienced a gray out?!

I took the survey, basically was asking you to rate certain categories on a scale from disappointed to very satisfied or on a scale from 1 to 10. I'm glad I could give my feedback!

I feel like if we do actually get a big announcement this summer, I don't think Frazier would want to leak any information out, we've been waiting so long for a new coaster so I think he would want to keep it on the down low as much as possible to keep us all surprised. Although when an employee finds out something like that it would be hard not to tell someone.

That's very interesting, I didn't know that Chickie and Pete's was a major chain restaurant. Although, I do know that the Chickie and Pete's at Cedar Point is right in front of Raptor and the one at Dorney is near Talon. Could there be some sort of similarities there? Place them right by there inverts? Just a thought.

Does anyone know if Valleyfair is going to update their blog after opening weekend? That's something I definitely would love to read!

Has anyone actually talked to Dave Frazier about scraping Excalibur? Kinda want to know what he would have to say about it. That ride is always walk on like 95% of the time but it does help you dry off from thunder canyon!

The souvenir bottle is $10.99 each IF you buy 3 of them, otherwise just for 1 bottle its $14.99 plus tax. Its a better deal to buy the bottle online because you can save $5.00 it only comes to like $12.00 with tax. You just get a voucher for the bottle and bring it to the park and exchange it.

Turing Excalibur into an RMC machine would be sweet, could even keep the same name. I do like the Excalibur name and the entrance sign to the ride is awesome with the sword.

Haha had the same thought in the back of my head. -Renegade was smoother, but seemed less intense. It had terrible operations today. I agree with you on this, like I said, what should have been a 20 minute wait was a 45 minute wait. I think they should always have 2 trains going due to its popularity and length.

I like the sound of that! Or a good spot for a new station could be where the amphitheater is (assuming its going to go down) or maybe even the spot where tit a whirl used to be, with the lift hill going over the train tunnel I know its close to wild thing but its just my opinion as well!

Is that the parking for management employees? Could just be expanding the parking lot or creating a space for miscellaneous storage.

I was at the park today, just a few things that I would like to share: - I was very impressed with the work done on High Roller, it made me enjoy the ride way more than I can even remember. - For what should have been a 20 minute wait on renegade turned into a 45 minute wait. I didn't know what the delay was but when we got up to the station we wanted to sit in the way back but the employee working told us we had to move to a less crowded area and wouldn't let us go straight to the back after I told her we wanted to sit there. - The new slides look AMAZING in person! - I love the pavement they put in at the Mad Mouse/Soak City corner. It felt way more comfortable to walk around especially without the restrooms and old backyard bbq patio being there. - I noticed the net on Looping Starship was gone, I don't go on that ride much but was that gone last year? Just wondering the reason behind it. - And when are they supposed to put the new cars on The Monster?!

So I've been kind of dying to know this....Is there anyone FROM Minnesota (or even Iowa or Wisconsin) that has a platinum pass and Valleyfair is your home park? I don't see how it would be worth it unless you have the time to travel to other CF parks throughout the summer. And I haven't heard of anyone having ERT (after closing) unless your a valleyfair employee. I'm just wondering what the benefit is to you if you have one? If I lived in Ohio and close to CP/KI there is no doubt in my mind that I would have one. I'm just a VF gold pass member.

I will be going on Saturday so hopefully the rain holds up!! Hope everyone has a good time that's going today!

^ That's pretty logical right there. Not a bad answer.

I remember seeing that pic too but I can't remember when. I also remember seeing a pic of pavement markings in between enterprise and steel venom. But are you still curious about those cones? Is this the photo? This area was blocked off a while back

I don't think I would wanna see a windseeker at valleyfair myself. But its interesting to think about when the time of a new coaster does come, how tall do you think it will be? Especially if its an invert. I'm sure Dave Frazier has a million people talk to him about valleyfairs next possible coaster

Correct me if I'm wrong but is the height restriction at valleyfair 275 feet? If I remember correctly the power tower was supposed to be 300 feet but it needed to be shorter due to restrictions.
