Worlds of Fun (WOF) Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Found this on the Travel Channel today.

 

Arthur – The Ride is a suspended dark ride roller coaster at Europa-Park in Rust, Germany. The attraction opened in spring 2014 as part of the wider "Kingdom of the Invisibles" area themed after the Arthur series of books and films by Luc Besson.

 

WOF could never afford the cost at 100 Million Euro, however, the Mack inverted powered coaster could still incorporate the Triotech screen elements seen at other Cedar Fair parks so far. Launched capabilities could enhance the ride even in short sections/areas. Something to think about.

New event during Haunt: Haunts and Coasters. It'll be an ACE exclusive event with a catered meal, behind-the-scenes tours, and VIP "Seating" at Overlord's Awakening.

Please tell the event isn't October 3rd, that is when I am going and am hoping that the crowd will still be manageable.

I was very impressed by the park today. Viking Voyager's water was crystal clear and the drop was repainted. Operations were fantastic. They were running two trains on all coasters except prowler. Prowler really needed that second train though. Must've been broke or something. All the ensures were in a very positive mood! Rides were also running very good too, especially Mamba. The MCBR killed off about 5% of the speed. It was hauling butt over those last hills. Absolutely brimming with airtime! Boomerang wasn't totally brutal. Still rough, but not horrible.

I get the feeling that lore of the vampire could be a lot shorter this year. I am starting to think that the entire portion under orient expresses station will be the blackout room. I know that club blood is gone(thank goodness that part was awful), but I hope that they add something in that area and not just the blackout room.

^ You have a very tenuous grasp on both the English language and proper typing, I see.

Yawl Must Really Don't Like Me

Take your arguments to the direct messages please, we've had enough accusations on the last few pages already. Anyways, good luck to anyone who visits this Labor Day weekend. I hear it's supposed to be absolutely packed, although that's not a surprise for the holiday. I'm pretty sure it will be a definite fast lane day!

^ Except for, you know, Knott's.

If you are including shows, Knott's has the same amount of attractions as WoF. If not, then Knott's has one more.

 

I know a lot of people like to compare WoF and Knott's Halloween events, but it really is a hard comparison to make as they are two totally different events. WoF uses permanent structures for their houses, while Knott's uses existing structures within the park. WoF will take the best ideas from other parks and put their own twist to it, while Knott's will come up with new concept on their own. There are so many more differences. I prefer WoF's techniques and event in general, but it's so hard to compare as they are totally different.

 

I would say WoF's event is insanely underrated imo. They have one of the best events in the country and the best event in the Cedar Fair chain imo.
