VF15 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 ^ I don’t think Cedar Point will ever have Winterfest, mainly because the park is not located in a major metropolitan area. Many other cities already have somewhat similar Christmas festivals and events. Since Cedar Fair’s Winterfest events are not really focused on rides, it probably wouldn’t attract that many people from outside the Sandusky area.

Guess we'll find out. Here we go again.... Why are we so adverse to discussion around here? It's the offseason now. Time to turn that pent up non-riding into something useful, useless speculation.

boldikus Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 It's the offseason now. I'll dedicate a lap on Nitro to you this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaithPlus1 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I heard they're bout to get a god damn 500 footer over Lake Erie. Son a bitch supposedly gonna leap off one track section and travel 200 feet before it lands on the other track. That son a bitch sounds dangerous but that's what my sister told me they building. She got through middle school, so I doubt she'd be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaceBoarder Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Depends on your definition of "big".... I can promise that whatever they get in 2020 will be too big to fit inside a 5-gallon bucket... That's pretty big to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG-77 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Rumor has it that they're building another strata coaster. Except this one actually is on top of Top Thrill Dragster. Instead of starting at the ground and launching 400ft in the air, you climb up to the top of TTD's top hat, get on the coaster, and then launch off of that another 420ft in the air until you're 880ft off the ground. Then the rockets turn on and you fly over to Kings Island where you duel their Giga for a while before flying back to Cedar piont. Just a rumor, though, I wouldn't put too much weight on it...

thrillrider Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Nice. My shithole Econo Lodge lives on for another day (barely). Is this the vacant area next to the econolodge? I believe that there was an Italian restaurant at one time in this spot if it's where I am thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

larrygator Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 I thoughts the parcels of land mentioned in the article were already controlled by Cedar Point, except for the alleyway mentioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrillrider Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Was the Econo Lodge a Best Western about 17 years ago? (That was the last time I was a CP) I'm not positive, but I think the best western was further down the road and is a magnuson(sp) hotel now.

Hilltopper39 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 FYI Cedar Point has a sale on today for single day admission and a fastlane+ for $75. Cyber Monday sale, expires at midnight for anyone who's planning a trip for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterInk Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 (edited) Ok... I took a quick look at the Erie County Auditor again and compared today's parcel numbers with the numbers I saved from last year about this time. In 2018 it appears as if only 5 parcels of land have been purchased by Cedar Point according to the auditor website. Four of the parcels are located right next to Sports Force (presumably for that 3rd expansion) and one itty bitty one is up right underneath 3rd Street to the left of Cedar Point Drive The stuff highlighted in Yellow is what was there late 2017 The stuff Highlighted in Red is what was purchased throughout 2018 Your guys' Econo lodge and thirsty pony are in no more danger than they was last year None of the new parcels are really that surprising...

SbSteveZ Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Does anyone know if Cedar Point will be accepting PayPal for chill out tickets? I know they’ve offered it for tickets and passes in the past but I’m not sure if it will be the same for this. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
