Unless what if "World's Largest Loop Coaster" is the name they picked.

 

Please god let this happen.

 

Then in 2019 SFMM can name theirs "World's Largester Loop Coaster!"

[Canobie Coaster]

They could also go the Roller Coaster Tycoon route with World's Largest Loop Coaster 2.

They already have one.

^I’ve been at the park at different times, including a June weekday, where the park closed early. There was an official reason but it was really because “not enough people in the park.”

 

Par for the course with this park.

 

Am I the only one that finds that incredibly odd? You'd think that if they were, well, proud of their new addition, they'd, well, give it a name, right? I can't think of a single reason why they wouldn't give it a name, that makes no sense to me.

 

They want to wait as long as possible in case any of the names are found offensive in any way due to some unforeseen sensitive political and social issue that will arise.

They've said they have an announcement next week. Probably a Mardi Gras festival based on the timing, so announcing the name of their new Roller Coaster in Mardi Gras would make some sense then too.

[Rollercoaster Rider]

They announced the name; Mardi Gras Hangover!

[boldikus]

Haha good one!

 

 

*googles Six Flags Great America*

 

 

OMG you're not kidding.

There better be a frozen margarita bar steps away from the entrance. Otherwise it's a completely missed opportunity.

[anonymouscactus]

Oh, wait, you ARE serious. I thought Boldikus was just being the typical ass he is and keeping the joke going, as I googled it and had 0 relevant results. Then I went to the official page...

 

 

I don't even know how to respond.

[Afterburner]

Wait, so if the rumors are true, then SFGAM's original plan was to put a hurricane-themed coaster in their Mardi Gras section? and it took yet another devastating hurricane for them to realize this was a terrible idea?

[Dombot]

 

This is comedy gold in the worst way possible.

[JT325]

Being in recovery and sober, I'll pass on the hangover.

Wow, people are really jumping through hoops to come up with a problem with every name they come up with. Good lord...

 

Personally I think this name is awesome in the "six-flagsiest" way possible.

No one to blame but myself for getting my hopes up about some form of HITP, and then essentially getting a Super Loop Coaster announced at me twice.

 

Have a Six Flags day, everyone.

[boldikus]

Please oh please Six Flags build a giant skull so this loopy loop coaster can go through its eyes. Please.

[Canobie Coaster]

This name is incredible. I love how odd it is and it's an interesting play on words.

[michaellynn4]

I honestly can't decide if this is one of the worst names I've ever heard or one of the best...

[SLCHeadache]

After such names like CraZanity and (Insert DC Character Here), "Mardi Gras Hangover" is a breath of fresh air from Six Flags.

[Rollercoaster Rider]

They are also doing a Mardi Gras event as everyone predicted and no mention of HITP as everyone also predicted.

 

No we just need Azoosment to announce their waterpark... I mean whatever they're adding this year

[ytterbiumanalyst]

OMG...that is so awesome! They are totally embracing Six Flagsness with this one.

 

Laissez les bons temps rouler!

Saw the name on their Facebook feed this afternoon and people were complaining that it isn't a "family name" and that it "promotes drinking". Give me a break!

 

I like the name. It's original and not another lame superhero themed ride. I would have screamed if they decided to call it "Wonder Woman Lasso of Truth".

[CaptainUnknown]

Say what you will about the name (at least it doesn't include the word "coaster" in the name), but that image is straight outta fright fest.

 

But at the same time, it's all like: Don't mind me, I'm just flossing my eyes out with this steroid-infused Larson Looper.

This. At least it's not something that lowers my IQ every time I type it, like CraZanity or (I am about to be officially dumb) Blue Hawk.

 

Also, this is the second time today that Six Flags news had me checking to make sure I hadn't time traveled to April 1st. (Not sure why I was surprised that SFMM is really adding trims to Green Lantern...)

[Password121]

I think my favorite part is how seemingly irrelevant the skull is to the entire ride and name, and yet it somehow ties it all together?

[boldikus]

The important thing here is that yes, they are marketing it as coaster.

 

They're just trollin at this point and I love it.
