Busch Gardens Africa
KIBeast replied to Coasterkidman's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Would you believe that we only blew $300.00 in 8 days? No joke! Granted, we had a kitchen and ate in our room most evenings. People were tellling me that I needed at least $500.00 to have a good time. They were WRONG! -
Rollercoaster derails,Denmark

You're right about that. I've also heard that in California and other states, these carnivals often escape inspections. -

I agree! Go enjoy Cocoa Beach! Ride some waves! I just got back from Daytona and had a great week with no coasters. I would definitely go for some miniature golf and go karts if I were you! -

Thanks for the link! I've had dreams that ended like that. That's why I skip carnivals. Rides constantly being torn down and put back up do not have my confidence in their operation. -
It has been awhile since this has been brought up. But it seems so fitting yet once again. http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/posting I never get tired of that!

Your link isn't working. -
Yes, save your money. My sister just went to MB the same week I was at Daytona and she said HRP pretty much disappointed. She said the Led Zepplin coaster is boring. She liked the Moody Blues dark ride, though. She said Maximum RPM coaster was more fun than the Led coaster. Not to mention she said she was none to happy to pay $43/ticket(found a discount) with so little to do.

I think that the sprayers on WWC that are controlled by the people watching (and paying quarters) as you pass by can also be controlled by that last worker whom works the other sprayers on WWC when no one is putting quarters in

Cedar Point Changes Line Policy
KIBeast replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
^That's what I would like to know. What possible good could come of printing such things? Furthermore, what would be the purpose of said story? Are there that many readers interested in the steps to making cocaine, purely for educational purposes? -
a. Park chains sign such deals, not individual parks that are part of a chain. There would be no advantage for them to do so. b. If a contract had been signed with B & M, Firehawk would certainly have nothing to do with it, being neither B & M nor new.... No reply, but just to reiterate.

Cedar Point Changes Line Policy
KIBeast replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
But, if you didn't know how and wanted to get in the game, why help 'em? -
Why would B&M agree with to this when the price of steel could go up in five years?

Cedar Point Changes Line Policy

I get exactly what you are saying, Tggr. I remember way back in high school, at Chesapeake in Ohio, there was and still is, a small circular paper that went around by the name of the Ironton Tribune. On the front page (and I showed this to my mother), there was a detailed description of how cocaine was made...step by step. I thought this was not the best idea. I also later thought that maybe the paper left out his examples. We should all know by now that often many items of interest are left out of newspaper/television interviews. -
Last two years, I have gone during the Fearfest/Halloween Haunt. We got in line about 9:45 and I have to say that a night ride is the best. Although, it was kind of cold once you really get out there in the woods. We were in the front seat and I came back with tears in my eyes from the cold air. My wife had one of those glow necklaces on and it looked way cool in the tunnels.

Good to see you around, Rail Rider! I'm all for Beast Slayer! I'm just not sure a diver out and back would work all that well, considering the width of those cars. But, not a bad idea either.

Problem being, a hotel being built would be a major expansion and there would be many whiny people complaining that CF didn't give them much of anything new for that year, much like this year. Of course, they don't count all of the new shows, the new TR program, or any of the excellent extras that they have come up with like the Kaptain Knieval jump or the coming high wire act.

Any time Mon-Thurs. are going to be your better days as far as crowds are concerned. I usually head straight for Rivertown or X Base as usually everyone heads for Action Zone first being right by the front gate.

I like having a fanny pack too. I carry sunscreen as I need to use it more often than most since I burn easily. Not to mention, I had sunscreen in my cargo shorts one time and after I exited Delirium, it had squeezed a whole bunch of it in my pocket...what a mess! Plus, I like having my money in front of me in large crowds. The Beast at night is awesome! Firehawk is the best coaster KI has installed since Invertigo.

I was thinking the exact same thing, Thrill Biscuit!

Cedar Point Changes Line Policy
KIBeast replied to The Interpreter's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
"I know for a fact this policy has been abused in the past," Schmidt said. "There are people who will rent wheelchairs and fake handicaps to avoid waiting in line, but this way those guests who are in need will still benefit." Sigh..... He knows for a fact but fails to give examples. Maybe he witnessed it? -

The Rose Bowl is the first helix after the initial drop. It was nicknamed the Rose Bowl since it seems to resemble a football stadium.

No, he's saying that KK is focusing on adding waterpark attractions. The waterpark is what is the main draw for that park. Hypersonic would be best to just be scrapped. You think TTD has had problems, Hypersonic is far worse, IMO.
