Satans Hockey Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 4 hours ago, Jason Maier said: So how big a drop in attendance do you all think the park will have this season? They still have the new flash opening. I really don't think most people care about the rest of the rides and it's not like most were even open last year. Will people travel in for the park? Probably not but it's always been a regional park anyway so I don't think attendance is gonna be that different. It's still the best local park in this area.

Well considering their brand new coaster will probably have an hourly capacity of 300 knowing them, a dip this year may not be a bad thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricklap77 Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 What they need is a giga coaster with no launch, something RELIABLE and high capacity!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ignorant from the outside looking in perspective thinks this would be a great investment. It certainly seemed to work out well for other parks. It transformed CW, and KI has been packed to the point of unenjoyment during our last few Haunt visits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my impression too is that the new management believes they can make Great Adventure into a park with the quality of KI, CW, and Carowinds but it will take some work (and removing half the park). If that is a case then a B&M Giga would surely be in the plans I would think. This park has plenty of room to build a great one like Fury (then again so did KI...) so fingers crossed that we're headed down that road in the next 5-10 years. This park may take a few years longer to clean up at first than KI, etc did, so there will be growing pains. Especially considering a lot of the maintenance in this park has been jaw droppingly bad. Literally. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abovethesink Posted Wednesday at 11:22 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 11:22 PM I really do think long term the single biggest winner of the merger will be this park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
