The Rumor / Crazy Idea Superthread

[rbpia]

Cedar Point is planning a 500ft inverted aquatrax over Lake Erie for 2009.

 

So I heard.

 

No, the Chik-fil-a guy told me Cedar Point is planning a 500 ft inverted aquatrax INTO Lake Erie for 2009.

XD at the Intverted Aquatrax.

 

I heard the rumor that Seattle will actually get a decent theme park....

 

Ha! Like that will ever happen.

[lapseofreason]

I heard they're going to paint Superman at SFMM glow in the dark/UV sensitive, with blacklights installed along the track.

 

Oh, and Wes, your avatar rocks. (Actually, that's all I wanted to say.)

[downunder]

Magnum is still sinking....

 

Michigan's Adventure is getting a coaster...

[IceDragon]

Ummmm... Intamin have created the first wooden LIM launch coaster which has a first drop that goes beyond 100*. Not only does it do that, it's a standup suspended swining coaster with 38 loops and G's that exceed 240g's!!!

 

 

sounds good...

[the sound]

I heard Dreamworld were adding a cardboard box, as they finally realised that there park is just about as fun as one.

[Homer]

i hear sfog will be moving to marietta, ga.

 

(Bad grammar intentional, btw)

[Sparebear75]

Canada's Wonderland is moving to... (insert location)

[snuggles]

Bell's is relocating.

[BeemerBoy]

Rumor has it that:

 

A. I'll never get "Look at all these rumors surrounding me every day

I just need some time, some time to get away" out of my head now.

 

B. Intamin will open their next coaster on time.

 

C. I'll have an actual reason to revisit King's Island in the next 20 years.

 

Don't quote me on it, though.

[hemmy]

I heard from a somewhat reliable friend of an unknown source that Kings Island on the 4th of July will light Son of Beast on fire and replace it with a floorless B&M

[Masked_Maverick]

^ If only that were true

 

Geauga Lake is getting the long rumored Hyper sometime in 2010

 

Maverick's Heartline roll was sinking and that is why they got rid of it (see my sig)

 

Cedar Point is getting rid of Dragster in favor of a Vekoma junior invert aka a Runaway Reptar clone but with a Snoopy theme and it will go all the way into Camp Snoopy

 

Ok I'm done

[bigstevet07]

Nebraska is going to get a coaster that isn't powered and is over 10 feet. Holy crap its true!! Opening May 26th at Fun Plex in Omaha.

 

Also, the Omaha area is getting a theme park simialr to the one that hasn't opened in WV yet.

[carolinacaniac]

I heard the rumor that Seattle will actually get a decent theme park....

 

Ha! Like that will ever happen.

 

I remember a few years ago they were actually going to try and build a park in Lakeland down near Tacoma, but that crashed and burned pretty quickly

[errtyme]

This thread is too much.

 

I heard the only reason Magnum is sinking is because of an ERT event ACE held a few years back; and now the coaster is permanently damaged.

[BarryH]

Robb and Elissa have been banned from every theme and amusement park.

[Louise]

I heard a rumour that Barry will soon be banned from TPR.

[Disney Dood]

I heard a rumor WDW will be replaced by an office building.

[Astat]

Maverick's heartline roll is actually being shipped to KI to replace the loop on Son Of Beast!

[snuggles]

No it isn't. It is going to be put on runaway reptar as a zero-G roll.

[larrygator]

Waste Management Inc is going to buy Kings Island from Cedar Fair and use it as a garbage dump. Not much of a stretch from it's current state.

 

Sorry it will be a waste management facility, not a dump.

[sfne2005]

I hope this thread gets locked soon....its sort of a black eye to the TPR forum filled with somewhat intelligent posts and trip reports. Sorry Wes, just my opinion.

[Airtime&Gravity]

I don't think this was a thread just to post what ever idea that will never happen that you have. I mean, be serious guys, I know you want to have fun, but at least act mature.

 

end rant

 

I believe that SFGAM has a dark ride in its near future, and I can easily see a Scooby Doo one in Orleans Place. I would like to see a master blaster in the water park and a screamin swing in the ride park, but those might not be "family friendly", especially a screamin swing, to Six Flags

[ParkTrips]

I agree with a couple of these posts, but I figure once everyone makes their best attempts at humor, it will eventually be what it was designed for... genuine rumors.

Intelligent posts? In a recent study, readers experienced heightened brain activity in this thread, more than any other, thus freeing them from their vegetable state of mind for just a little bit.
