coasterbill Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) I'll go there in the dead of Winter when there are no other options without hopping on a plane (though we'll do a bit of that too) but Six Flags exists and there's no Fright Fest that I'd have to deal with so I see no appeal until they close.

Canobie Coaster Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 But the real question, will those WTF inverting bumper cars finally reopen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 For anyone who hasn't read the fineprint, the American Dream attractions aren't allowing re-entry, they are not selling food, and food cannot be brought inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetman82 Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Each individual attraction only lets you ride once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiFan Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 If there was an award for worst park policies, I think place would win it. How can they not sell food and then not allow it to be brought in, especially when their main customer base is probably families with kids?

SharkTums Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 ^Don't be so sure! This is American Dream we're talking about and I've seen crap policies like this at other places too. I'll never forget Gaylord Palms big ICE play area for kids that had no bathroom and didn't allow re-entry...for the attraction portion that was geared for KIDS!!!!!

PKI Jizzman Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 No food period will be a win for everyone because there were M&Ms and Skittles everywhere on the ground when Alex and I visited That combined with soda spills and that slippery newly-paved/painted floor I was shocked I didn't see anyone bite it haha Those commando security guards are so plentiful and the park is so small give 'em a broom and mop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 ^ I'm hoping the persistent security guards go all out enforcing the mask policy! Maybe that way they'll be too busy to bother me for taking a picture of Shellraiser's beautiful lighting package or sitting down alone on a bench.

Canobie Coaster Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Yes. If you go read some of the reports back when they opened last winter, people were getting questioned by security if they were alone, especially if they took photos of rides. It happened to me and I think PKIJizzman, just to name two people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canobie Coaster Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 The park updated the ride page for Sandy's Blasting Bronco. It is no longer listed as "Coming Soon" and it isn't on the list of closed rides that was just updated. So it sounds like it's opening today. In other news, the spinning/flipping bumper cars were added to the closed list. I forgot there was a ride out there more unreliable than Lightning Rod.

I've seen friends on FB riding it this week, so safe to say it is open. However, there is just something about this place that makes me feel uneasy about visiting, and I think i'll hold off until this pandemic dies down a little bit. It's funny, isn't it? as "antiseptic" as the place looks, I kinda feel the same way - I would feel uneasy. Like, it's a pretend veneer of "clean". . but everything is sticky.

A.J. Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Curious... Those flipping bumper cars would show up at the IAAPA expo every year. Does anyone know of any FECs that have them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canobie Coaster Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I went last week and Sandy's Blasting Bronco was in fact open. The ride is fantastic. It's easily the most intense backwards launch out there and all 3 Immelmanns feel wildly different. It's probably my favorite ride in the park. It also ran consistently. The only issue it had is that the turntable would lock up if the ride wasn't running non-stop (it was an empty day). When that happened, maintenance would have to reset the ride which took just a few minutes. Security was much better this time. They were still there in large quantities, but they didn't harass anyone for taking photos or being there alone. The Invader Zim bumper cars were actually relocated behind Shellraiser's banana roll. The location is really awkward as it's in the corner of the park behind the bathroom. In Invader Zim's old plot is one of those kiddie balloon towers. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBrylczyk Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 They should just get rid of the Zim ride. Excellent show, stupid ride idea. Sandy's looks ridiculous, though. That's great to hear it's a solid ride; hopefully it'll find some traction as a clone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
