  1. Park management has discussed their plans a bit with regulars at the park and events. Nothing is official until it happens, but the plans included moving the burrito place to a new building (nearly done), redo P305 theme, possibly an animal theme, to fit the area, and an International street refurb. Pizza place will move to the current burrito stand front of park. New ride and section on the right near Dinos. Dominator is being repainted with same colors this fall. Intimidator painting has started. Racer repaint next year. Sure this is always the case, but current management would like to go year round in the coming years. Rapterra looks cool. They have a nice display with the POV running all day at the front and near the ride showing it off to visitors. Looks really good in that area.
  2. Yesterday, Sunday, was great. They had everything open and most running 2 trains. Never really saw any lines. Haunt was fun. They do a good job on the houses. Much better than BGW. The scare actors were also more personable and interactive, inside houses and in the zones. Light sprinkles off and on all night probably kept many away. The park kept everything running. Small crowd but they stayed open til 11. We rode a lot more than we normally do now days because everything was a walk on and the ride ops were doing great. Very leisurely pace with a few meals and we still rode 25-30 rides on the coasters and drop tower. I'm told Haunt gets fairly crowded as October progresses. That's good. It's a solid event. If their current park development plans pan out, this place is going to be one of the best in the chain. The new wing coaster looks great. The park has said the plan is a 200+ coaster in the next couple years on the other side of the park and will not be a B&M.
  3. The Friends Frenzy 5K this morning at BGW was fun. Ran around and through the park. Scare actors along the route were fun. Now off to KD for the day. Hopefully we can get back to East TN tomorrow. East TN and Western NC were hit really.
  4. BGW closed at 9 tonight. Lots of coasters closed. 2 or 3 of their houses were closed as well since they were outside. Last night (Thursday) was dead at BGW. Didn't see a full coaster train all night. Never saw a line for the haunts. Alpengeist has been closed both nights.
  5. My 3 was Sirens, Circuit Breaker at Cota, and Gringotts. Obviously Gringotts is slightly different but it's the same concept. Looking forward to getting back to CP next year. This new coaster looks fun.
  6. It'll be really awesome if they make you go through an animal exhibit afterwards instead of just a simple exit.
  7. Is this the coaster Energylandia was getting before they lost funding? Perhaps SF got got a good deal last minute.
  8. They need a new show for HHN. Current show isn't all that great and gets worse each year. Houses are ok this year. I thought Ghostbusters could have been much better. Too short and not much going on in it. Quiet Place house was great and looked beautiful. Insidious is also good and goes about scares a bit differently than the others. Slaughter Cinema was also good. I liked the Candy house, too. Scare zones....most are not good. Blum is especially awful. Torture Fair was basically the only good one. That's all that stood out to me thus far. I'm doing SeaWorld and Busch events this weekend.
  9. This is so good to hear. Can't wait to get back up there sometime and ride it again without the shoulder harnesses.
  10. Same. Front row seats were better. Neither were as bad as I anticipated. I did 5 laps in a row with no problems at one point. I'd like to get on it some more now.
  11. Shoulder restraints removed. Should be a much better ride now! https://x.com/IndianaBeach/status/1828883756645585110
  12. RIP Scorpion. Last day is 9/2. https://x.com/BuschGardens/status/1826985253707137415
  13. For you, Arthur, I don't think there is a reason for the prestige. True for most I would imagine. Plenty of scenarios where it could make sense. Families getting one, people with many short visits during the year, etc.
  14. It does appear there is no activation process this year. Seems you can buy from anywhere if you don't care about BAF or other possible home park only perks.
