bgwfreak Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 http://www.thrillnetwork.com/stories_view.php/1781/myrtle_beach_pavilion_icons_saved.html Looks like the carousel and organ as well as some of the other rides will be saved.
DerekRx Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 No real loss in the Hurricane being scrapped, but I'm sad to see the Haunted House go. That one was pretty nicely done with its recent rehab.
Jonathan Posted October 18, 2006 Posted October 18, 2006 Those rides aren't necessarily going to be scrapped. B&C is likely trying to sell them, but I don't know how much hope there is for anyone to buy any of those rides. I agree that the haunted mansion would be the biggest loss, and unfortunately it probably has the least chance of being bought.
bgwfreak Posted October 18, 2006 Author Posted October 18, 2006 ^ We should start a petition. Save the Myrtle Beach Haunted Hotel!!! This is one time I wish I had the funds to buy something like that. That was really a fun ride and I wish I could have ridden several more times before they closed.
willski Posted October 19, 2006 Posted October 19, 2006 According to the head op at the Last Ride, Hurricane has been sold and will be relocated to somewhere in Brazil. And you can quote me on that, unless I'm wrong.
CoasterFanatic Posted October 19, 2006 Posted October 19, 2006 And you can quote me on that, unless I'm wrong. Greatest Post Ever! Reminds me of the Fletch line ... "It takes a big man to admit when he is wrong. I am not a big man!" // if they play on keeping the G-trains, I hope it ends up in Brazil.
willski Posted October 19, 2006 Posted October 19, 2006 Haha, well I had to add that in the post just in case, but I'm never wrong so it's all good! And yeah, the head op was some bulky old guy (the two don't really go together, but yeah) that looked like he didn't know what he was talking about. So that was my disclaimer.
kissorkill2night Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 hurricane was quite evil..it was SOO painfull
htomc42 Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 According to the head op at the Last Ride, Hurricane has been sold and will be relocated to somewhere in Brazil. I'm not sure about that... it looks like the Hurricane is being cut up into pieces and made into memorabilia... check out the pieces of track that are now being sold as paperweights on the MB Pavilion website: Hurricane Paper Weight They are even crushing up the Pavilion building and selling bags of concrete pieces. I was in MB on November 1st, and they were just putting the construction fences around the park. Several of the rides had been packed up and moved, but no actual destruction had been done, and the Pavilion building was still in one piece-- it even had most of the crappy redemption games still in the arcade. I will be back in MB over christmas, at the latest, so I'll have some updated pics of the carnage.
Tomizzle For Rizzle Posted November 28, 2006 Posted November 28, 2006 The Hurricane is currently for sale at a bargan price of $300,000. Rides 4 U is selling it, along with the flume, top spin, and rapids ride.
