  1. ...if it's still there.
  2. ...it's better than the one at Six Flags America. Better Georgia Scorcher at Six Flags America. Or Riddler at Six Flags Magic Mountain. Or Green Lantern at... EDIT: NJFTP.
  3. ...which I still don't understand why it's not gambling.
  4. Local legal sources indicate that the Bankruptcy Judge delayed release of the Beach Club insurance proceeds and has required the tax creditors to provide affidavits as to their cash reserves within 10 days.
  5. Much more, including video reporting: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/brothers-in-calgary-bobsled-mishap-were-former-employees-of-park/article28640091/ One of the survivors is in critical condition.
  6. I can see that. It's VERY easy and well worth the money. Dollywood uses the same system, and charges far less. They call it Q-to-Q.
  7. ...which takes all of six seconds...
  8. Comparing prices at Six Flags Great America and Cedar Point, I'd not agree. In addition, the highest price The Flash Pass gets immediate access to the front of the line on every covered ride except the new one. That isn't true of Fast Lane Plus at Kings Island, much less Cedar Point.

  10. Since they used to work there, I'd say they had.
  11. Much more, including that both boys used to work at the attraction where they met their untimely ends: http://www.ctvnews.ca/mobile/canada/memorials-opened-for-twins-who-died-in-bobsled-track-crash-1.2768028

  13. Lest we forget...
  14. And for those who wonder, Frank Doninger is now Director of Operations at The Great Escape, a member of the Six Flags Theme Park Family, in Glens Falls, NY.
  15. Group of eight young males trespasses, takes own sled down closed bobsled run. Two 17 year old teen males dead, six injured. http://www.timescolonist.com/entertainment/twins-die-in-after-hours-accident-at-calgary-bobsled-track-1.2167182 Tragic...and yet so incredibly avoidable. The other six will get to live with this for the rest of their lives, as will all the friends and family.
  16. A well functioning YoYo is a thing of joy. Carowinds' is a thing of meh.
  17. ...and the new big ride? Twice. IF you pay for the highest level, and most expensive, The Flash Pass. After that, you can buy it again or wait like everybody else who didn't. SIX also does a far, far better job of blending the two lines--as opposed to FUN. On Banshee opening day, for instance, some regular liners waited five hours while Fast Lane buyers not only hogged shirt after shirt (many later sold on EBay) but also ride after ride after ride. One young lad claimed to have gotten 24 rides that day, and 14 shirts.
  18. I believe she may have learned the meaning of a C&D letter. Cease and Desist or we shall see you in court...
  19. ...a Ferris Wheel, Tilt-A-Whirl, serious effort at a dark ride, a well maintained carousel organ...

  22. ...not me. Condor! Worlds of Fun! Be still my heart!
  23. Once replaced by not incredible pizza, now gone. Any updates?
  24. Local sources indicate more mediation may occur later this month.
