This post to their instagram makes me scared.

 

I really hate them for doing this.

Holy crap they're closing Joker Chaos super dooper Larson looper

Those could be pretty old, they never said it was there 30+ years.

I really hope it's splash water falls. I don't think they're removing mind bender because if they were, they wouldn't just randomly close it, they'd probably give some kind of heads up. This makes me think it's a ride nobody cares about like splash water falls.

I'm not really sure if this is a clue as neither of these are close to 30 yrs old, but just posted to their Instagram. Thank god its a post not Mindbender related. Funny its not even my home park, I just loved SFOG so much I am concerned as to what could happen here.

 

Next clue tonight...

Potential clue to a theme? I could get into a Batman VS Superman theme. (FINGERS CROSSED FOR DUELING RMC lol)

I was thinking Justice League BFM, but I don't think they would tease it this early

[DILinator]

What are the chances they are closing the Dodge City Bumper Cars, and putting a JLBFM installation there, next to Superman?

[Superbatboy]

Sounds like either Justice League or maybe a dueling T-Rex...

I don't think that area would be large enough to hold the attraction. I think a better location for a justice league ride would be in the old Axis Arena in Gotham City. They would have to build a new building, but there is a lot of empty space there.

Just got my Passholder email which talks up it's coasters, and says that a classic ride will be going away, which says to me that we can calm down on any of the coasters being touched.

[jynx242]

I am overly-concerned about this and that is disturbing me.

 

True, I've been going to SFoG since I was 3 (when the park was new ,) did work there for a couple of seasons in the 80's and have spent Easter Sunday there almost every year since I moved away.....but still - I just need to relax.

 

that being said.....I think I'll lose my #$@% if they do anything to Mindbender.

[SixFlagsAstroworld]

NOW, I'm worried about Monster Mansion

[zeus7331]

Now I really think that Mindbender is safe. In that same pass holder announcement they announce ERT's, July 2nd - 4th, for MInd Bender, Batman, Harley, Joker, DDD and Goliath.

[simaticable]

I really can't see Monster Mansion closing without giving it a proper send off if at all. The ride is one of the original attractions and seems to have a long wait all day let alone it being one of the few true dark rides the chain owns. The fact that they've renovated it several times now tells me that they want to keep it around for as long as possible.

They said *more* than 30 years, Splash Water Falls has, unfortunately, only been 30 years exactly

Technically if it's 30 years and 1 day it's over 30 years.

[The Geek Mojo]

I've been thinking about this a little longer and remember seeing a "Pulsar" Mack Shuttle Water Coaster on the rendering for Six Flags Dubailand. Seeing how Six Flags likes to install the same type rides throughout their parks, I could see one of these replacing Splashwater Falls.

[kickflipbacktail]

Would one of those launched full circuit loops (like Tempesto or Phobia, the name of this ride type is slipping my mind) fit in the SWF area?

[thrilladdict]

IMO it would be a huge loss to the park to get rid of Monster Mansion. It's such a fun, classic ride that provides a break from the sun and a bit of relaxation.

[coasterdude5]

I've never seen a park "hype" a ride closure like this before. I find it a bit bizarre. Perhaps it's all a joke. One can dream, as I really don't want to see any of the 30+ year veteran attractions leave.

[ThrillDude200]

Here are my candidates for going away:

 

1. The Antique Cars

2. Monster Mansion

3. Any other ride that is at least 30 years old

[Aceattack52]

WSB here in Atlanta said that Six Flags will be posting another clue today at about 7.

[ThrillDude200]

We got 5 minutes til' the next clue. I'll tell you which rides can be removed by then.
