To the best of my knowledge it was NOT accurate. If you remember the Q&A we had with Maureen on the site, she said that the ride ops did the proper procedure and the ride was shut down immediately.

I don't think the one at PKI is on YouTube, although the one at PKD is exactly the same.

Click to see Back in Black from PKD. I have the entire show on tape several times over, but don't have permission to put it on the site.

You can buy it either in the park or on PKI.com. I would consider purchasing it on PKI.com because it limits the time you have to spend in line.

Only Six Flags can screw up a water park.

You seem to know your stuff in the ent department, so maybe you can answer this question: Last year, Jeff teased that Fearfest was getting a major overhaul. It would mainly be the environment rather than the actual houses. Do you know if this still went through?

Unfortunately, we do not have any answers about parking at the current time. Right now, only RENEWING passholders have a parking option and new passholder parking is not on sale. Price and availablity is not available at this time. Post any questions you may have in here or PM me and I will redirect them to the park. Ryan

To confirm, this is the email I got from the park:

You're really missing out. After the bomb that was 2003, it has improved greatly.

Take or leave the concept art, but look at the photos. Let me ask you this: with all of those barrell rolls, could they be going after the inversion record?

I was walking towards Flight of Fear one time and saw a lady and her husband sitting in the smoking section near Zephyr. When a man in his 40s came up and lit up, the lady started doing that fake cough thing and looking it him. Couldn't help but feel sorry for the guy. He was following the rules and she was the rude one. But then again, the smokers are always the bad guys, right?

I wouldn't worry about Gold Pass benefits. As for parking, even with Paramount, your pass was only good at your home park.

I think most other posters in this threat can empathize with that.

You have no idea...

Which one will you get?

Just imagine the possiblities of enclosing the ride entirely. I mean, it doesn't necessarily have to have a "show" per se like Tomb Raider, however it would have been really neat to have fire and smoke around you during the ride itself. Of course, as we all know, that would have made it even more of a maintanance nightmare.

LOVE the polo idea... just may be a little warm for that.

Crappy editing? Looks like every other video I've seen... just set in Germany and with POV footage.

I wouldn't mislead you, Adam. Sorry Ryan I didn't mean you. I meant Lion Sleeps Tonight. Hes all - were getting a tilt coaster! No were getting a dive machine! No were getting a jump 2 - heres a pic! (insert pic of topple tower). Like normally I'm not one to talk bad about PKIC members - but I have to say he doesnt have a clue what hes talking about. Like if Lion Sleeps Tonight said we were getting a HUSS ride - and KI took delivery of crates with the HUSS logo stamped on them - I STILL wouldn't believe it. What if a guy with a suit on sporting a hard hat that said "Huss" on it came up to you and said, "Sir, is this where we're installing the new ride? (pointing at the area behind The Beast) You know, the new ride for next year? Here, I have the contracts; do you know where I can get find Mr. Kinzel? I think he forgot to sign form 4B... " Then would you believe?

What if the were adding perks or OPTIONS.

I wouldn't mislead you, Adam.

Wow... who said we're getting a new ride next year?

I wouldn't be too worried if I were you.

Please excuse Cedar Fair this one time. You have to keep in mind that this is a totally different company than it was just six months ago. It has doubled in size, which is a business feat that can't be taken lightly. I doubt PKI and PCW let that cat out of the bag since season passes were supposed to go on sale today, so it's not like they could have waited any longer. I stand by my statement. Anything is subject to change, but I wouldn't expect a great change from the press release which you got a few days ago.
