Or wait until next year when they have a liquidation sale like WWK did a few times with old GL dry side merch. Sparky... jus' sayin'

I will be.. oh wait, you know that, because we are going together

Yes, Very good point, Sir! I thought about that same thing right after I posted, and just didnt edit it.

My immediate reaction, after reading the Tweet thread, was "Well played, Dan :)"

You cant deny, Terp, he has concrete evidence!

Oh I know that full well ... I must get that way before moving the other way next year.

You and me both, Brother! My first time ever at HW was May of 2010, and I remember how amazing I thought it was, and taking 20 minutes as I left to personally tell Pat and Will that.

So, for those of you who may have been hoping for this, I emailed Holiday World (over a week ago, I might add) asking whether or not coaster clubs would be invited to Media Day. I get a canned response today from their Marketing Director (funny, I figured Paula would have answered this) giving me all the information I didnt want or need about their first rider auction without a word regarding my actual question. So, I replied back stating "OK, in other words, the answer to the question I initially asked is 'no'. 'Thanks' for your prompt and direct response." In short, what I am stating is A)No invites for coaster club members to Media Day B)Gotta "Love" the new management style down there and C)While I am VERY rarely one to toot the horn of any one park chain, let us all remember how good we as Cedar Fair enthusiasts have it for the Company to graciously invite us to the Media Days for Gatekeeper and Banshee!!

Honestly, it will be in my mind in a way similar to this little tune. If it were still 09, when I met a small group of absolutely fantastic people, then yes Id miss it terribly. Today, as those Friendships/associations have evolved or dissolved...it has become more "A park that I used to know".

Knowing that guy, its a photo of a footer somewhere in Downtown Sandusky. That would be fitting of his types of "announcement". Sparky, not a fan.

Yes, the Elections will decide the fate of the Double Secret Probation.

When I move west next year, I will actually only MISS two on that list enough to give more than a casual passing thought... Cedar Point and Skyline.

I will be there without a doubt, repping ACE.

This kid HAS to be related to Gary Story.

Well, you've gotta give them both one thing, they've got a lotta "Hart".

Yes! X-Flight was leaps and bounds better than Firehawk, both in mechanical and human operation!

Go with the Indy Quals, no contest. I am even going to attend those because of the new aerokits, and I am honestly not an Indycar fan, it just never appealed to me as much as stock car or IMSA racing. Heck, I will meet you and the Mrs there.

Incorrect. I wish not give them more reasons to attempt to entice me to spend more money. You have your likes, I have mine, dont bag on mine, period.

Which is precisely why I still have my hand stamped. I voluntarily offer my free services to as few marketing teams as possible.

Maybe one of the new "attractions" is a big moose. "Sorry, folks, parks closed!" Too soon?

True this. I am one of the FIRST people to not bow-down to other peoples' B.S., but I am also one who will go face to face, toe to toe with said person and get whatever issue resolved between us long before putting them on blast publicly. Im also one to know that, even when/if the times comes to put said person on blast, I never put said person out on public forum or FB when said person is a present or former employer, there are far better ways to express dis-satisfaction with said present or former employer on the up-and-up that will not jeopardize my present or future employment.

Wow, shows you how much I am up on KI operations, I could swear I remember reading about the park getting wi-fi 2 or 3 years ago. I simply use my Verizon 4G, and it uploads pics of Friends and coasters to FB, be they "stuck" or not. Ive never had a photo take more than about 4 seconds max to upload to FB from my phone using V4G.

They may as well spend their advertising budget for this year. The whole "going out with a bang" thought process.

Sweet, I didnt know they had one at SFFT! Now, I have NO reason to put my Life at risk by going to SFA.
