coasterkid124 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Sorry for double posting, but it seems like the park is putting the Scrambler back in. A person posted on the Facebook page that this is true, and they claim to be an employee. I can confirm that in May I saw the ride's base near the maintenance building, but I didn't think it would return just yet. The only open spot that I can think of is UFO's pad. I hope to visit Saturday to confirm or reject this rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XYZ Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 It is true, I am at Darien Lake right now. They have a sign up saying welcome back to the scrambler. I didn't know the park was open past midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarienLaker Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 If they put Scrambler in where 'Cuda Falls was, that would be a waste of space to bring back Scrambler and put it in a place that can be used for something bigger than just one flat ride!

Geauga Dog Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Glad to hear that the Scrambler is coming back. Hopefully they will put it in an area that could use a little more foot traffic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like the back of the park near Tin Lizzy's, Twister, and Motocoaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geauga Dog Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 One of the areas I consider a dead area is along the path that's located behind Blast Off and Anchor Bar near the Laserblast area. I always thought Boomerang was in an odd location being all by itself in that corner by Beaver Brothers and I'm sure it could use some company.

DarienLaker Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Or what about the area by Ride of Steel? That area is kind of a dead end that leads to an awesome coaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterkid124 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 There is a small patch of grass between Twister and Darien Square. It might be a little too small though. I always thought that it would be a good place to put something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well looking from the aerial from Google, they can remove a few of the trees or relocate Twister to another part of the park to make room for Scrambler's return!

coasterkid124 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I'm sure it would fit. There's no need for the park to remove ANOTHER ride to put in an old one. I'm starting to get worried that we're not going to see many new attractions in the future. Colossus is scheduled to close and so is Georgia Cyclone. No news on predator yet.

DarienLaker Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 ^Scramblers don't take up too much space, so I guess Darien Lake can put it next to Twister without removing the trees! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matman-TheRide Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 The location to the left of Twister seems very nice for Scrambler's return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matman-TheRide Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Then again, so new coaster where Cuda once stood and return of Scrambler for 2015? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarienLaker Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Then again, so new coaster where Cuda once stood and return of Scrambler for 2015? I wouldn't be too sure about a new coaster, new water slides, or Scrambler's return in where 'Cuda Falls was for 2015! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougMJr Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Scrambler will be located on Predator Blvd near 3 point challenge and will open this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarienLaker Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 It's a shame that Darien Lake decided not to put Scrambler in where UFO was or take out the mini golf under Viper for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterkid124 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Scrambler will be located on Predator Blvd near 3 point challenge and will open this month. Thank you for the info! Glad to see it opening so soon as well. It's a little positive in this very negative season so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarienLaker Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I wonder how long Scrambler is going to stay at Darien Lake this time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterkid124 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I would guess until ridership decreases and maintenance costs ride. Compared to other rides, it is not too old, and Scramblers are easy to repair. Plus I think that it will be more popular in the Crossroads area.

DarienLaker Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) I wish that Darien Lake would get rid of the old mini golf course under Viper and put Scrambler there or in UFO's spot! Edited July 5, 2014 by DarienLaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterkid124 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 After visiting the park today, I can confirm that Scrambler will go in 3 point challenge's spot, but is not replacing it. Fencing has gone up right next to the current three point spot, but so has framework very similar to the current game. A tree right behind the game has also been marked for removal. It makes sense seeing that the spot that the game is in is much larger. I must say that the Scrambler is going in a very beautiful and shady area.
