Latest update... Front of the line passes will be available as an "occasional prize at a game" this year, and are also included as part of a current Thunderbird Fun Pack they're auctioning off right now. More details and link to the auction at http://www.holidayworld.com/holiblog/2015/02/27/front-line/.

I'd love to, but given that this is the weekend after Holiwood Nights and that I work weekends, I don't see myself going, especially since I'm also going to Coasterstock Sent from my LG G3 using Tapatalk

Considering they ended up with millions in debt over the course of 10+ years simply because the powers that be were "overwhelmed", anything's possible at this point...

What part of "they don't have any money" do these people not understand? It makes me wonder why they're suddenly interested in getting the money NOW. Do they have big plans for the area or are they just trying to make themselves look good for an upcoming election?

At least they're being consistent with the farm theme in that area (For those unaware, the show at Peanuts Theater the last few seasons has been about the gang spending time on their grandparents' farm)

Likely won't be Kentucky Kingdom either

Ryan's been famous for a while now. As I recall his picture used to appear on a banner somewhere in Action Zone

I would also recommend checking out the game "Escape The Room: Limited Time" if you're not familiar with the concept. The Room and its sequel are both excellent, but "Escape The Room ..." is more typical of the genre in my opinion

I hate to say it, but the investors got what they deserved. No reputable real estate agent is going to act on an "inside" tip, nor would they leak plans that had not yet been made public by the company who supposedly drew them up. Their career would be absolutely ruined if they got caught or if the insider was wrong.

Someone had to update the original site to have the park's email address and new web address added. At that point someone had to know who owned the new site, and they could have figured out a better way to do things...

It's also interesting that the two domains are not owned by the same person. However, why they wouldn't just put the new site at the old domain, or at least automatically redirect it (like how pki.com redirects to visitkingsisland.com) is beyond me.

Keep in mind that this is unique to the area and has limited capacity. I suspect most people will be doing the "group discount" route as well, as this sort of thing would be a lot more fun with people that you know than with total strangers.

It's not officially for sale though. The page simply says they've "parked" the domain, meaning they've linked it to their GoDaddy hosting account but don't actually have a website associated with it. If you click the link to buy it, you get taken to a page for a "domain agent" service - you pay $70 to have them try to negotiate the sale of the domain for you.

Those are the Weeki Wachee Mermaids. They were there for a short time this past year as well.

The folks at Thrillgeek don't sound too hopeful either... http://thrillgeek.com/dreamvision-announces-plans-muscle-shoals-theme-park/

I understand the location has everything to do with why they close before dark, but why close earlier on some days than on others during the summer?

One thing I don't understand is their weird hours during the summer. Closing at 8 on Sundays and 7 Monday through Thursday? During the busiest part of your season? I don't get it.

That's exactly what they are. I don't know if they're still doing that, but they were when I worked at the park in 2005.

Also with The Vortex queue, at one time it went down underneath the station as well. There are still gates on the "landing" between the steps coming down from above and the actual station part where the stairs used to be. I assume that changed when they extended the queue line further out into Coney Mall, especially as it's more difficult for security and others to keep an eye on park guests down there.

I haven't even been to Florida in about 15 years. I need to find a way to make it down there again.

You would expect the policy to be the same at all parks, not just some of them... Also note that this is listed on the Gold Pass terms, but not on the Platinum Pass terms:

Annual revenue of $325 million. I'm wondering if they've managed to turn a profit at all. An article from a few years ago cited by Wikipedia says that as of March of 2012 the company hadn't been able to make a profit in nearly 8 years.

If it works anything like Ride Warriors Weekend did in 2009, you'll be able to check in and pick up your event badge at Guest Relations after the park opens.

If you're in the Tampa area and want a good beach, drive down to Siesta Key...
