Timber Wolf trains are being loaded onto the track. Not sure what this means. The park still hasn't released any information pertaining to the coaster. -

Mamba is running better than ever. Since the trims are virtually non-existent now, the ride is like a totally different ride! -

Great day at Worlds of Fun yesterday. The park is looking fantastic! Zambezi Zinger is a great addition! Mamba is running better than ever, nearly trimless, so the back half is a ton of airtime. Timber Wolf is re-rideable again. Mamba and Prowler crews were great. Excited for 50 Nights of Fire! -

I mean, a live blog is providing commentary to something as it takes place with short updates. That is literally what they are doing. Providing regular updates of the construction progress. -

Six Flags St. Louis (SFStL) Discussion Thread
WOF_Fan replied to Homer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Went to SFSL today. The positives: crowds were very light so nearly everything was a walk on. American Thunder was running great. And my tickets were free. The negatives: The Boss and Screamin Eagle both just had one train operations today; multiple rides were closed (Thunder River, Joker, Supergirl, Dragon's Wing, Tsunami Soaker, of course the normal Xcalibur and carousel, Boomerang and Fireball were also closed until mid afternoon); The Boss was very rough, not sure if it was the row, but it was almost the rougest coaster I have been on; the only landscaping I saw was overgrown weeds. The only ride my group re-rode was American Thunder. We were actually able to just stay on because the queue had nobody in it. -

The poverty rate in Des Moines is higher than the poverty rate in Kansas City, according to the US Census Bureau. If you compare the entire metro areas, the poverty rate in Des Moines metro (16.8%) is nearly twice as high as the poverty rate of the KC metro area (9.6%). -

Same location, same name, same queue building, spiral lift hill, tunnel, track going around the spiral lift hill, track that races through the trees, both about 2500ft long, family coaster for everyone to enjoy. Not sure how you can say they aren't paying tribute to ZZ.
