Why are we assuming that something will be put in SoB's place? Leaving it SBNO is cheaper than reopening it, overhauling it, OR tearing it down and immediately putting in a new attraction.

LSM Launch Coaster for Kennywood
CedarPointer replied to Beast1979's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
There was also footage of a Vekoma Boomerang, lol. -
It never breaks down? Yeah, and SoB is "glass-smooth". (I actually have an article written by an ACE member that describes SoB as being glass-smooth. Did he actually ride it?) Action Theater = "Moving Seats: THE RIDE" Shake Rattle and Roll = "Spinning Wheels" The Beast = "Forest Runner"

Coney Mall looks completely different now.

Firehawk could be named "Bird On Fire That Breaks Down A Lot".

LSM Launch Coaster for Kennywood

Maybe they'll finally offer season passes! Looks interesting. I couldn't help but giggle when the word "Delirium" was used... -
In other words, different from a similar event at Cedar Point. I inadvertantly visited CP during it. Never again. It... was horrible.
-
That's not a good reason. They're getting almost as bad as Six Flags.
-
At least they're honest about SoB's fate now. "We'll decide what to do with it..." and not "It'll be reopening next year"? Bye, SoB...
-
There is no reason that Firehawk can't have bins in the station. Almost all the other coasters do.
-
"It is extremely noticable!" "Diamond-Back" ...wow.
-
News 5... and it's WLWT. The station Firehawk123 claims to have heard that SoB was reopening on.
-
WLWT has nothing about it on their website.
-
Considering how pro-KI this site has been lately, if there were an official announcment of SoB reopening, it'd be on here in a heartbeat.
-
I'll be shocked if it reopens this season... or ever.

Do I believe my eyes?!?

If it's *.carowinds.com, I'd assume that CF knows about it. Original image: http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/windows...o-PrintSize.jpg (linked due to very large image size, 56k warning!) -
Well, we also call Vortex's "over-the-shoulder restraints" "concrete coated head smashers" occasionally.
-
Credibility, for one.

Throwing items from the Eifel Tower
CedarPointer replied to ziggystardust458's topic in Kings Island
I'm glad that they're at least trying to take the spitting problem seriously now. Kudos to KI security! -
Nails in the coffin for SoB: 1. Merchandise on clearance 2. Being virtually untouched since its closing 3. "It would be inappropriate to speculate when it may reopen..." (not exact quote) 4. Possibility of future incidents 5. The ride's reputation Reasons to re-open SoB: 1. Record-breaker 2. Fun ride to some 3. Increases # of coasters for the park 4. Tearing it down would be expensive 5. Money put into it since 2006 accident Feel free to add...

A friend called the side of The Racer which wasn't running during our visit (Blue) the "White Racer", since she had heard me call the red side "Red Racer". She also called Action Theater "Attraction Theater".
-
This poll was totally necessary.

I don't think that's a real IIS page. It uses a image used in Windows advertising... and "Cedarfair LP"? Red herring... -
Then, there'd be a huge concrete field with *no* point whatsoever. I'd love to see a better logo put on the water tower, though. Or, at least, the Action Zone logo put back up. But, I know better.
