steel Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Hopefully, this project will be finished before Spring Break. I don't want to miss it like I missed S:ToP.
coasterdude5 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Aren't they opened year-round? (or at least through December)
apollo210 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 I hope they only get the spinner. I might go to SFFT next year so I hope SFFT gets something big and SFOT gets the spinner.
pvcoasterguy Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Yeah I caught the 'Entertainment' part of the Press Release too, but is a show considered a 'Capital' Improvement. Maybe if they built a theater, but don't they already have a theater? Or Two? Capital Improvement: Any structure or component erected as a permanent improvement to real property that adds to its value and useful life. Perhaps sets, props, etc. could be considered a capital improvement? On one hand, a show seems so likely, but the definition of capital improvement is hazy as is the press release. We'll just have to see. Maybe it's a smaller ride in combination with a show...
adc9787 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Well... I have recently been... and Isaw no signs of construction. And... I will be going one more time before the park closes after Holiday in the Park. I will be sure to look... but by Monday... I will know what to look for!
eskater132 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Yeah I caught the 'Entertainment' part of the Press Release too, but is a show considered a 'Capital' Improvement. Maybe if they built a theater, but don't they already have a theater? Or Two? three, or four counting the rangers and outlaws arena
eskater132 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 HAHA... yes, I saw your SFOT Trip Report... and it's so true. But to answer your earlier question... they have two indoor theaters. In addition, they have an outdoor "Batman" type theater. On top of that, they have a fairly large outdoor amptheater. So, I think you are right about a show not being the new attraction becuase it says "capital" and the amount of theaters doesn't justify for a new one being built. we have THREE THEATRES: Southern Palace, Texas Theatre, and Majestic Theatre
adc9787 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 ^ Oh... yeah... you are right. I always forget about the theater by Judge Roy Scream... as I hardly go down there anymore. But you are right... so a theater is DEFINENTLY not the new addition... but everyone knows is going to be the first 500 ft. Rocket Coaster... known for reliability!

steel Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Aren't they opened year-round? (or at least through December) I tihink they close for part of January and February, but I'm not sure. You could check the website.
apollo210 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Just one day until they announce the new attraction, maybe its just a fat Justice League character that is as fat as the Titan . Now thats an attraction
thrillrideseeker Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Is it possible they would get a drop coaster, or a new wooden coaster? ~Matthew
TexTitan01 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Well SFoT already has 2 pretty good woodies, so Unless it's an Intamin Prefab I think its highley unlikely. There arent many options other than a giant flat, a B&M of some kind, or an Intamin of some kind. A water ride wouldnt be possible since Hurricane Harbor is a separate park on the other side of the freeway. I'm split between a flat and a rocket coaster, but I'm just happy that SFoT is finally getting another thrill ride/coaster. post 300! w00t!!!
thrillrideseeker Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 OH OH...What about something like Hypersonic XLC only better? That would really take your breath away -Matthew
adc9787 Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Yes... something breath taking. Well... maybe they are going to re theme Runaway Mountain to be completely dark... but... wait for it......................... completely air free! BREATH TAKING!
eskater132 Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 woohoo only 3 hours and 40 minutes till the day of the announcement, which probably won't be posted till ten o clock at night tomorrow!
coaster1 Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 don't hold your breathe, that's all I can say.
coasterCrAzY505 Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 It's announcment day ... but no announcment yet . opefully it will happen soon because I don't want to miss this. If it ends up being something really stupid after SF made it see huge I will be really pissed off.
steel Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 At this point, it seems like they were just advertising '07 passes and Dream Nite.
adc9787 Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Hooray for today! I just hope that this was not an over hyped announcement! I would be really dissapointed! But... can't wait until they say something!
mike robinson Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 don't hold your breathe, that's all I can say. I agree. I don't see lap bars in the immediate future.
aflack Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 Isn't just a medium size spinning coaster, I thought this was pretty much confirmed?
coasterCrAzY505 Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 I thought the announcment would have happened by now . Soon hopefully
redfoot12 Posted November 13, 2006 Posted November 13, 2006 I see disappointment in many people's futures.
