The Knott's Berry Farm (KBF) Discussion Thread

Hang Loose is also a surfing term. Make a fist, stick out your thumb and pinky finger and say " hang loose, brah" . Let's be honest. At a park who's claim to fame is a Ghost Town.... Hang Time sounds like something involving a lynch mob. Shoulda called it Wedged...an homage to local surf spot The Wedge. they coulda shown videos on the TV screens in the line of Surfers getting barrel rolled and wiping out on 20 footers at the Wedge and face planting in the sand.

My agent sent me an audition appointment today for a commercial titled, "SoCal Theme Park - New Roller Coaster" shooting May 1st in Buena Park, CA.

That's incredible. So do you audition at Knott's or some offsite ad agency?

Now I'm thinking some Wacky Worm is opening at a family fun center and they're just trolling you.

[DBru]

^ That would legitimately be the story of my life.

 

^^Most of these kinds of things audition at a casting office in LA, but this one is easy and just requires a self-tape!

[boldikus]

So would that mean you have to send them a tape of yourself screaming with your hands up?

[firebird81]

They're testing the lights right now! It's on the video feed.

I now simultaneously both do and don't want this to be the case for you. Fingers crossed...for something.

Here’s a video of the lights testing last night via the webcams

Every time I try looking at that webcam it freezes up like 3 seconds in. How can anyone record it for that long? I'm impressed.

So I’m not the only one! Good to know.

That lighting looks so good! Should make for a very cool night ride experience.

[coasterlvr]

lighting looks great. it's a bit too disco for me though. i'm curious how bright it will be in person.

[cal1br3tto]

Stunning lights!

[Shut It Down]

It looks like wipeout is coming back as well. It will be located right below Hangtimes pretzel loop.

Keep in mind, it's a track chase lighting package and not going to be lit up like the tests all night.

Knott's at night looks so aesthetically pleasing.

Knott's at night looks so aesthetically pleasing.

When the boardwalk area first opened, it was such a great face lift for that section of the park. It's looking even better now!

[CedarFlags]

Lights were testing again when I drove past the park around 8:00. It's really gorgeous and definitely a big wow factor. And they're BRIGHT too. At night you'll be able to see if from the freeway.

[firebird81]

testing new light patterns tonight..

[thrillseeker4552]

Has anyone who has been to the park recently taken a look at the park map? The map online still isn’t updated with HangTime, but I would expect the physical ones in the park to update first. I’m interested to see how they draw HangTime and squeeze it in there.

Hello Everyone! I'll be visiting Knott's in June. I'm wondering if anybody had any tips, such as order to do rides and places to eat. Thanks in advance!
