Demolished Coasters

One night I was just curious which major theme park has REMOVED the most coasters.  Kings Island has seen Bavarian Beetle, Screamin Demon, Son of Beast, King Kobra, the original Bat, and Vortex go away, mainly because they have taken the risk to lead on new technology and set the path for followers.  Can any other park top that?  My guess is that Cedar Point could be a contender due to age.  I believe the old Cedar Point Amusement Circle had three or more that were where the CP mall is today.  Thoughts?

Wiener Prater in Austria has removed 26 according to RCDB.  Here is the parks that I could think of and I grabbed the numbers off of RCDB.

Geauga Lake - 14 coasters

Great Adventure - 15 coasters

Palisades - 16 coasters

Cedar Point - 17 coasters

Dreamland -17 coasters

Wiener Prater - 26 coasters

I doubt Kings Island is even in the top 20 or 30 for most removed coasters.

Maybe not for quantity but arguably KI should be up there quality wise. Firehawk, King Cobra, Vortex, Screaming Demon, and of course SOB all significantly contributed to not only KI's history but also the history of the industry as a whole.
