  1. That building was such a memory to go into this weekend. Seeing the pipes for the fog/water/ect. on the side, then the mural still on the wall, just brilliant. What I would do to tour through there with no haunt on the floor and see what all is still there honestly. Plus it's been a dream of mine to go up to the control booth and peer out into where that ride used to be. One of my fond memories I truly miss
  2. I would just like to see the removal of the huge banner, brown shingles, and closed look of the front gate. The view when passing through of the fountains, amazing...However walking up to the gate is very bland and somewhat a letdown.
  3. ^Brown train, very last car Won't be riding that again...
  4. But Walken... Can't compare to the Walken
  5. I am not sure about Vortex, but yes they hand built it on site. I may post pictures of some off season work they did on the rails of magnum & corkscrew that I have. But the evidence is clear, the ride is nowhere near the perfect tolerances that rides such as B&M's have. But that's what makes it unique...knowing it's not a cookie cutter, RCT computer generated coaster, it's very unique and it's own, and people used their profession to make that ride. Don't see quality like that anywhere anymore really.
  6. Arrow rides are classics...like classic cars They may not be the most efficient, cheapest, or most incredible thing ever, but when you see them, they look good, and just about every one of them that's been taken care of delivers Find me a season where top thrill dragster has more uptime than downtime or as many hours operating as an arrow... Also...Maggie hit 1mil before other rides in the park minus this year, even the train, just saying May not like it, may not think much of them, but they're the history that created the present and pushed the envelope much harder than anyone today
  7. I would be bored and slightly annoyed after five or so minutes...beast is great...but a lot of that time is lifts and straight track...couldn't imagine drawn out elements of a wing rider doing too much for nine minutes
  8. I guess I'm that short...I have my hands up the whole time in either seat... Ah well
  9. Why Kevin Bacon...more like Christopher Walken
  10. Real coal fired engine > Propane and fake wood surrounding the tank Just my opinion
  11. ^That was priceless...I'm not ganna lie Favorite thing was seeing guests peer through the fence and see us right there, was pretty funny lol
  12. Very fun day, no doubt. Glad you could follow us around, it was pretty awesome
  13. Safety is number one...that's your job, that's all thats truly important Before you raise that hand and clear the train there had better not be any doubts that the ride isn't safe for who is on it.
  14. Corkscrew is always my favorite...you don't find rides that are that demanding and fin to work anymore in todays techhnology age. Plus we did have the best crew there that year...even pointbuzz and enthusiasts agreed with that which was great considering the year before my crew got there we were voted worst crew... Big changes man
  15. Youngstud...completely different dynamics of that water ride That's like comparing El Toro to TTD...there's not really anything alike
  16. I will say I do like Panda...Their serving sizes are...Excellent haha I don't like that they don't apply the refill for the souviner cups, which is lame... However orange chicken, a large drink, and steamed rice for about 11 bucks...not a bad deal honestly.
  17. ^No...it's coaster track.. It could be the color of the designers nether-region hair...I'd still ride it
  18. I will say at least they sell Yuengling in Festhaus...got the Lager part down, just not the truly German part down
  19. Wow...Never dove that deep into looking at stuff... That is slightly ironic to be honest
  20. God this is the perfect reply for that facepalm machine some guy on here made that I can't find for the life of me
  21. Rides closed Fri: Coskcrew/Super Monster/Witches Wheel I believe GCA was closed Antiques/Wave Swinger There may be more but I know those were closed my year
  22. Invert Giga?? That sounds for once terrifying on a coaster I'd totally ride it though...but wow...that'd be a thrill
