theymitbgi Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 I don't know if this is 100% true, but apparently SFOG's Goliath was planned for SFSTL but got moved at the last minute. It would've gone where the picnic grove is. I'm not sure if it was Goliath or Raging Bull. Have you ever seen the key chains in the gift shop near Colussus that say "Raging Bull-Six Flags St. Louis". It may have been Goliath, but would have been named Raging Bull?
Sf-Dad Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 ^ I don't go in gift shops anywhere. Hospitals, museums, theme parks. Gift shops are EVIL.
prozach626 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Could Six Flags St Louis get a Goliath B&M hyper coaster? Like a Raging Bull at Six Flags Great America? They could put one behind screamin eagle or behind The Boss? Oh God, here we go again...................

They could put one behind screamin eagle or behind The Boss? Let's face it: Sfstl will never EVER get a hypercoaster. I'm just being realistic.
prozach626 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 I agree. I think the time for that has come and past. I had hopes, before SF corporate thought that something like Boomerang was a good fit for our part. That was a pretty big statement.
Sf-Dad Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I learned a few things tonight. Christians like to travel in packs 8-10 wide. They don't all go to the MercyMe concert. There are still such things as "Christian Warriors" (I don't get that). SF needs to change the name to Mr. Hot and Humid: Blast Furnace. I now know how much it really sucks to to wait for a half hour in a hot building and they have "minor technical difficulties" when you get to the gate. Never ever park in the west lot when you are going to close the park down. Never ever let them put cheese directly on the tortilla chips. They are so thin they instantly turn to goo. No need to buy a wristband for drink refills, I only had to pay for one refill. A new worlds record, I went to SF and spend a total of $1.07. I won't miss Scooby Doo, at least not in its crippled 1/2 capacity state. I like American Thunder a bit more each ride.
HARLEYGUYJB Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I could ride American Thunder all day long!

Yeah, I think American Thunder is THE best GCI and in the top 15 wooden coasters.
prozach626 Posted August 11, 2014 Posted August 11, 2014 I think I liked Thunderhead a little more than American Thunder, but I'll agree it's a highly underrated coaster.
SFSTLMO Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 I think I liked Thunderhead a little more than American Thunder, but I'll agree it's a highly underrated coaster. Aren't they basically a clone?
Godwyn Posted August 12, 2014 Posted August 12, 2014 No they aren't. And I also think American Thunder is underrated. It is my favorite ride in the park, but I like Thunderhead better. It is my favorite at Dollywood.
SFSTLMO Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 American Thunder is a clone of Thunderbird Oh, whoops. Didn't read that carefully.
bbmchl Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Went to the park yesterday for last day of daily operations. Pretty decent sized crowd, felt like a Sunday, but there were moderate wait times on most rides. Looked like they may have been on one train operations on American Thunder because it had a pretty long line. Complaint for the day: we are on the dining plan and went to Macho Burrito at 4:40 for dinner and it was already closed. We then went to Mooseburger and it was already closed too. With the size of the crowd and the HH had not yet closed, I'm sure there were plenty of disappointed people on the dining plan looking for dinner. We ended up going to JB's which was pretty good, but they only have a few things available on the dining plan. If they are going to close a couple of the main restaurants early, that should be posted somewhere.
HARLEYGUYJB Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 Six Flags St. Louis new photo clue...Caught Dave at the Scooby Doo ride again. What is he looking at now?
Sf-Dad Posted August 13, 2014 Posted August 13, 2014 ^^^ Can I leap that tall building in a single bound? Monday Mucho Nacho was closed as well as the burger shack at HH. I would have closed the crummy pizza place first. Suspect the issue was staff shortages.
SFZIP Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Dave is obviously looking for a signal in the sky.
Vonni Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 I'll miss Scooby Doo Ghost Blaster. I really enjoy the theme. But a Justice League theme will fit the area better.
SteveStL Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 He looking for that 200+ lift hill that has yet to grace our Skyline
prozach626 Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 He looking for that 200+ lift hill that has yet to grace our Skyline hahaha Truth!
Vonni Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 He looking for that 200+ lift hill that has yet to grace our Skyline That would be awesome! But, unfortunately that's not happening anytime soon. But, I still have hope for sometime in the near future!!!
HARLEYGUYJB Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 He looking for that 200+ lift hill that has yet to grace our Skyline Why not 300? We can all dream right!
