I am sorry, but you aren't making much sense. -
El Toro "Derails"
DiamondbackFan replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
No one in their right mind wants to see AT&T buy anything. They are a poorly managed company that runs every company they buy into the ground. The good news is that AT&T isn't in a position to buy another company right now due to high debt levels and the costs of upgrading their wireless network to remain competitive. -

Has anyone heard anything about Skyhawk being sold to another park? -
If Cedar Fair got another park
DiamondbackFan replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I am not sure how SFGAm would rank against other Cedar Fair parks. In this article from May 27th, 2009, it says Six Flags Great America was the most profitable park in the chain and this was before the schedule was extended with Holiday in the Park. https://prev.dailyherald.com/story/?id=296367 -

What new attraction would make the best sense for KI?
DiamondbackFan replied to dropdasher's topic in Coming Attractions
A Gerstlauer Sky Roller might be another option. https://www.canadaswonderland.com/rides-experiences/skyhawk -
It would be interesting if the front of the park was redeveloped into a special event/entertainment zone and marketplace. Similar to what is in the master plan for California's Great America.

Discussing Land and Space in and around Vortex
DiamondbackFan replied to Klabergian Empire's topic in Kings Island
It's 2024 and the hedge fund that is now running Cedar Fair decides to rightsize the coaster lineup at Kings Dominion. Intimidator 305 is relocated to Kings Island and the park finally gets a giga coaster. -
Construction Equipment Onsite at Kings Island

No one would use a construction crane to demolish KillMart. -

Merging two chains
DiamondbackFan replied to SonofBaconator's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Cedar Fair and Compagnie des Alpes Cedar Fair would pickup 9 parks (including Bellewaerde Park, Futuroscope, Parc Asterix, Walibi Belgium, Walibi Holland) a couple of waterparks and a bunch of ski resorts in Europe. They could offer travel packages to visitors on each side of the Atlantic. https://www.compagniedesalpes.com/en/our-brands -
Cedar Fair is splitting management of park operations between Jason McClure and Pat Jones. https://www.morningjournal.com/business/carrie-boldman-named-vice-president-and-general-manager-at-cedar-point/article_5654b2b2-97a2-11eb-b665-e7c577b701eb.html https://www.coaster101.com/2021/04/06/carowinds-announces-manny-gonzalez-as-new-vpgm/
