If they are in fact tearing down the SOB station, I hope they also take the time and remove the old queue rails and clean up that whole area basically making the overlook area like it was when Top Gun/The Bat first opened.

In the case of KI a parking lot roller coaster. going along the old Colombia road between Great Wolf Lodge and the front gate beside preferred parking would be a fantastic location for a thrill coaster. growing up walking towards the entrance in the parking lot Face/Off was such a awesome introduction. Made the experience of walking into a park that much more memorable. Same with GateKeeper and Fury325 among others. I don’t think we need a front gate coaster like Cedar Point as the Eiffel Tower is the main focus point but a coaster by the side of the main gate as I stated above would be a very welcome addition.

Someone on Reddit was able to explore some of the station and queue area with permission by the park recently. Kinda surreal to see how overgrown it is over there. https://www.reddit.com/r/rollercoasters/s/5TGLC6ZIqK

If you think parking lot coasters look bad, try one made for flatter terrain on stilts or epic terraforming.

Spirit and Jet Blue airlines come to mind.

That is a great article Don. I love this idea. I also think the tasting cards need to come back for Food and Wine and Grand Carnivale. When we went to Silver Dollar City a few weeks ago, my whole family bought tasting cards and it was a lot of fun. Like you said, we were like, "what do we want to try next." The cards make it fun, which gets people to spend money. I have refused to purchase food at KI's events since the cards disappeared.

Wow, I can't believe Six Flags got the city of Mason to condemn the Son of Beast station as part of the elaborate teaser campaign for an RMC! They've outdone themselves! My hopes are UP, baby!

Has Six Flags trained guests to ask, “Where can I use my meal plan?” instead of, “Where should we eat?” The company already has the building blocks—from smokehouses to food festivals—but there’s an opportunity to rebalance its food and beverage strategy by combining value, signature dining and premium experiences into something guests will remember.

Condemned doesn't necessarily mean it has to be demo'ed. It just means a process of rehabilitation and inspections to be done to get it able to be permitted for use again.

Whatever happens, happens.

It's listed as a demolition permit under "record type"

New haunt in SOB station called condemned confirmed 🤣

I guess Number Five is NOT Alive then?

Never give up! Never lose hope! Keep hope alive!

GIVE IN? In our moment of denial? I think you over estimate their chances!

I felt a great disturbance in the Son of Beast revival fanboy movement, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Just a small update to breakfast as I don't see it been announced on here, but as late June they now offer either bacon or sausage patty meat option on the breakfast sandwich. I've had the sausage a few times and has not disappointed and have noticed a few differences is that the croiffels are bit smaller now not a quarter size but more a 1/6 size given. Still, I do enjoy having breakfast at the park and hoping it gets expanded next year into Grain & Grill for more options, and gives more seating area and more exposure directly at the front of the park. Chef Bailey definitely has done a great job with this new food offering.

And then they have to keep lowering their prices more and more every year to draw in people with low standards, like they did this past year. Doesn't seem like a great business strategy.

Unless some things get addressed, I will be among the followed through and offset by a new passholder.
