King Ding Dong

You weren’t always looking into the sun and even then if you wore sunglasses with a strap it is fine or just close your eyes. It was a flyer so a completely different experience than every other coaster except for launched.

Bold move bro. Was it everything you expected?

Firehawk.

You must have missed the memo. There is only one way now. Allegedly.

Cool. Did you get the 6 or 9 gallon card? Looks to me like the 9. Did you pay cash for it or have to use the cash to card kiosk? I keep seeing reports on social media that the park is still accepting cash despite what they say.

No…but something even better is in the works. The park is busy developing “Paintings” cards that allow the guests to actually be a part of the experience and history of this unique event. The cards come in 6 gallon and 9 gallon denominations and sell for $49.99 and $74.99 respectively. ($5 discount for passholders). Once the guests have finished with either card they will unlock the ability to purchase a limited edition “I Painted It!” T-shirt for just $34.99 ($5 discount for passholders). Be sure to get your early once they go on sale as they will sell out quickly and prices are likely to go up.

New for Fall 2021 Watching Paint Dry: The Ride

I like to make the argument Cedar Downs is the best ride in the park because you actually have to actively ride it, not just be along for the ride like everything else. I boggles my mind that it is still allowed to operate given everything else has you so strapped in one can barely move. CP has been odd this season with food portions, mostly it has stayed on the traditional leaner side but a few places have been serving absolutely ridiculously large portions like Crystal Rock (Island Smokehouse) and Hugo’s. Still have not been able to ride SNE despite 8 day trips this season and spending 4 nights at Breakers last week it is never up when we pass by. It has taken over the Rivertown freestyle and WindSeeker curse for us.

CF: Worst Decision: Keeping Rivertown freestyle SBNO for years and years Best Decision: Opening it this season.

I wouldn’t be opposed to a freestyle Express.

Nah, looks more like a Dragster footer to me.

As long as it is all on the meal plan why not?

The link is to the CP menu, do we know if the KI menu will be the same?

I sure AF hope not.

I have not purchased a SF pass/membership in several years but when I did this is always the way the seasons passes worked. IF you processed the season pass in person by a certain date then it would be upgraded to Gold and include parking and all parks.

However ACME technology has existed for ages and who would’t pay a $75-$100 a pop to ride Dragster the old fashion way?

Sounds like a job for Intamin.

Isn’t that kind of what you are doing in a loop? You don’t mean lift hill do you?

So in other words, steak on a stick. Always good.

Here is the color palette.

The plexiglass solution might work at some parks but would be ugly at CP. Bugs.

Which can happen especially with tire treads. I had a tire disintegrate and the belts come off on me once, beat the hell out of the quarter panel. See it all the time with truck tires on the interstate.

The short playlist is not a rights issue at all. KI could just put Freebird on repeat or have a 50,000 song rotation and their ASCAP/BMI invoices wouldn’t change. This is about their goal for their targeted guests to hear their favorite hits.

Or a draft beer? What does a beer cost them, a quarter?

Nope, but as Kinzel said “people gotta eat”. Who waits 105 minutes for Corkscrew?
