The Beast is too rough to enjoy.
Yes, this does come from me. I usually can tolerate rough rides but the rides I’ve had in beast are just unbearable. Last time I rode, I got a bruise on my shoulder.

I would rather have it go to Clementon Park to give them a new thrill coaster as they haven't gotten one since 2004
I agree with that. But it doubt that will happen unless it’s a last minute thing because this has been planned ever since Quimera was bought out. They bought clementon park after the plan. But yes, that would be awesome.

Indiana Beach has been rumored to get Cascabel 2.0 from La Feria ever since Quimera was announced. Now Cascabel’s coaster cars have been spotted in the park storage area. Looks like the coaster quite possibly will be coming for 2022. Also, a flat ride named Condor was also spotted in that area.

Batman at Six Flags Over Texas. Crazy intense experience but a little rough. It’s in my top 10 though which isn’t saying much because I’ve only ridden 37 coasters

So I went to SFOT about 2-3 weeks ago and I did not have a good experience. Not at all. I’m not trying to sound like an overly sensitive person or whatnot, but I have a feeling you guys would want to know this.
So we got to the park and we noticed security was on point. There was a lot of security but we thought it was for covid procedures so we brushed it off.
The park was almost Disneyland busy. It was about a 2 hour wait for every ride and I only got to ride 3 in my 8 hours of being there. That and it was very confusing to get around because the paths are terrible.
Finally we were in line for Mr. Freeze. A security guard came in just scanning people’s faces like something was wrong and all of a sudden a huge fight happens right in front of our eyes. The smart people backed away but the others literally climbed the walls to film.
So they evacuated everyone from mr freeze so I didn’t get to ride it but I wasn’t really disappointed, just glad I was safe with my family. We got to the house and I was scrolling YouTube. Here’s the kicker. I found a video telling me that the day before we went a fight happened that resulted in a shooting. They didn’t shut the park down for a few days which is what really ticked me off.
So all in all, if you are looking for a safe and fun environment/experience, do not come to SFOT. Worst park I’ve been to by far. If they want to be a better park, they need to keep these fights under control.

Number one this news is several months old. Number 2 I highly doubt the coaster is getting renamed. Nowhere does it say so. The park likes to use wordplay and puns as your second link shows aka a paint job most fowl. When they say "get ready to experience Raven Evermore" They likely just mean get ready to experience Raven Even More. Number 3 this was already posted by IndyGuy back in Nov.
Ok the name I was confused on, thanks for answering that

It says "After 25 years, our trains are getting a new paint job," not replaced.
Yeah, I just saw that.

So if you have been strolling across the Holiday World blog recently, you may have noticed something interesting. Raven is getting retracked (not completely), getting a new train paintjob, and I may be wrong on this, but is getting renamed to Raven Evermore. It said at the bottom of the trains topic page that get ready to experience Raven Evermore in 2021. Here are the links to these blog posts to see for yourself.

I could see that as a possibility, especially if SIX decides to cut some parks to alleviate lost revenue coming out of the pandemic. Those two parks would definitely fit in with Herschend.
I'm curious if Herschend would ever make a jump towards bigger parks like SEAS if the opportunity ever presented itself.
They do run Newport Aquarium, so they know how to run something like that. Plus, Seaworld is in deep doodoo right now with finances and protesting from animal rights activists. So I could see some company like Herschend acquiring the parks.
Now, if the activists are still going at it with a new owner, we could see Herschend have some problems as well, so I don't know.
-
I'm hoping they acquire other smaller six flags parks like Darien Lake, Great Escape, Frontier City, etc. These parks (besides maybe Darien Lake) need a major facelift, and Herschend is the one to do that.
Also, is Ed Hart going to be partnering with Herschend to run the park? If so, we could see some legendary additions with the mind of Ed Hart and the imagination of Herschend together.

I’m a 15 year old, so I just do normal teenage stuff like school and just lazing around.
I also work at Subway so I guess that’s another thing.

Take it from a guy who visited Adventureland Iowa for the first time this summer. I enjoyed my visit there more then parks like Valleyfair and holiday World. The park had a nice vibe, nice coasters, flats and a nice waterpark.
Yeah same thing with Indiana Beach, sometimes you just can’t beat the obscure feel.

This is now confirmed. RIP Cheetah

So Cheetah at Wild Adventures was closed for the whole 2020 season. People have emailed Wild Adventures to ask when the ride will reopen. The park messaged back saying the ride will be closed down this year. Any thoughts on what to come?

My bad, that's fallen off the radar. Makes you wonder when a family coaster at SEAS Orlando is more talked about than your b&m dive at SEAS San Diego.
Yeah but it looks to be one of the best dives
Edit: Imo, just because a coaster has family stats does not mean it’s a family coaster. Ice Breaker looks like it could throw you around like a rag doll. Like Cornball Express, it has family stats but it is most definitely not a family coaster.

I would think you use your money and have fun. Masks aren't the end of the world, it can be annoying but unless you have breathing problems it'll be fine.

Exactly!
I had a dream that Racer became an E&F Miler and that Diamondback was originally going to be the Euthenasia Coaster.
I have many more weird ones.

I always have dreams of me skipping work to go to Kings Island, but my boss is tracking me down at the park, but luckily I am smart enough to avoid her!

Never rode it but if people say SOB was rougher than The Beast than I would have hated it. For me, it's hard to enjoy The Beast because it's so jarringly rough. I would have not liked SOB.
