3Mutts Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 Looks really good. Hopefully I'll be able to convince my parents to add a day to our trip for Great Adventure! Hopefully they stay open amid the virus panic. Im personally taking advantage of the situation to visit parks with low crowds (for example Im going to SFA for the first time on the 28th) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ytterbiumanalyst Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 I think it will depend on whether their virus policy is more like their rain policy or more like their temperature policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaceBoarder Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 You're probably looking at 8-10 weeks from now at a minimum. Best case scenario will be June 1. Worst case, the season is a total loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either scenario is a clusterfuck. How would the park (and quite frankly, any other park in the SF chain) recover from this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either scenario is a clusterfuck. How would the park (and quite frankly, any other park in the SF chain) recover from this? SF probably has insurance policies in place. It's not going to be pleasant, but this could be manageable. There are a number of factors that will play into this so it's hard to predict.

JG-77 Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I personally suspect the reopening for many SF parks will have more to do with legal restrictions set by the states they're in than with SF policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mary.pesik Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Since Cyborg Hyper Drive hype is over, I have moved on from flipping out over Grid. Who is the new Grid now, you may ask? LOOK NO FURTHER.

mary.pesik Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 psh I know you're gonna get tired of my Brainiac fangirling like you did with my Grid fangirling. Except Brainiac is a more well known DC character (his name is a word in popular culture) and I just wonder why Six Flags hasn't themed a ride to him yet. They could retheme the Twister to him... BTW I associate with him and imagine me and him dancing to it. I don't know why all my crushes are genocidal non-humans... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG-77 Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I was going to say that the word braniac was a term before it was used for a villain name, but I googled it and it appears you're actually correct. Still, most people aren't familiar with the character, so I wouldn't get your hopes up about SF giving him much more than a poster like the one you took a pic of.

They gave Bizarro a ride and most people aren't familiar with him. Brainiac (like Bizarro) has been on the Super Friends and many TV shows, but never in a movie for some reason.

WolfBobs Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Hey, maybe Six Flags will open the coaster with the park after all. Still not a bet I would put money on! To be serious, would building a roller coaster be considered "essential" to the government if a stay at home order is in place? Maybe? But honestly, it shouldn't be for the safety of the workers.
