no more than 5 seconds in do i see the camelback roll from kumba!!!

has anyone else seen anything like this from another coaster???

Not surprising. Sea World and BGA are both owned by Anhisher Busch, and it's a common trade practice to "borrow" clips of other coasters when you're short on media. (Six Flags is the leading world champ at it) The GP rarely notice, it's just nerds like us who find it.

actually, i was going to mention that, but i forgot to when i started this topic. so six flags has many videos like that?

Back in the days when V2 was still new at SFDK, I used to see their ads on TV featuring Geauga Lake's Steel Venom. When Zonga was new, they used Astroworld's Texas Tornado (though that was more acceptable because that *is* the same ride) for the promotional ads. They used SFMM's Viper in the SFDK park ads too.

I could be mistaking, but I think there are Pepsi machines at either Cedar Point or Kings Island that say Cedar Point or Kings Island on them and there is a coaster or two pictured that is obviously not from the park the machine is at.

Going in to full fledge mix up. I want to Geauga Lake during its last operating season, and one of their shirts said Geauga Lake, but clearly had a silouhette of the famous Intamin hyper coaster to the north.

Back when M&D's in Scotland premiered Tornado

 

 

They had some adverts running which featured heavily edited photos of Dragon Kahn which depicted "A Tornado is coming"

 

I have just sat for the last 40 minutes trying to dig up this image, but to no avail, if anyone has better luck than me, feel free!!

All of the major chains do it.

 

Paramount, Cedar Fair, Six Flags, I've seen TV commercials many times which use footage from the other parks in the chain.
