  1. I had the chance to ride this during Associate Previews, and it is a great ride. Very smooth, great airtime, and the on-board audio really ties everything together nicely. I really hope parks buy more of these. I was surprised by how much the ride feels at home at Cedar Point. To me at least, it didn't feel like a ride that was supposed to go to two other parks. And yes, I would support building one of these as The Vortex replacement!
  2. Plague Productions built Ghost in the Machine at Dorney Park, which is absolutely stunning. It would be great for them to build a house at Kings Island!
  3. If this post was made in the future, I would have to say the cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory or a delicious flame-grilled Whopper at Burger King.
  4. They were removed because it was felt that the curbs created a psychological barrier that prevented people from going in and spending money in the shops and restaurants.
  5. I visited this park in 2022, when I was working at Hersheypark. I rode Superman next to a boy who was visiting from Britain...he wanted to visit an "American theme park." I told him it was a pretty poor representation of the parks here. I wonder if he ever went to another, better park during his trip!
  6. Dean Nahrup. I tried to reach out to him through several different avenues when I was writing my book and never heard anything. So I would like to chill out with him so I could finally interview him!
  7. Oh, interesting. I am not sure when that changed. The GMs of the resorts have reported to a corporate resort VP for at least a year at this point.
  8. Resorts reports to Corporate, not to the park GM.
  9. Great post and especially great photos. Thank you for sharing!
  10. It ran at Kings Island from 2017 to 2021.
  11. I agree with this; I also enjoy it mainly because it was featured in the Partridge Family episode. The worst bathroom in the park is the one inside of the Festhaus. Walking into that bathroom is like walking through the Portal to Hell.
  12. This idea is the perfect thing for Mason, now that Club Splash is defunct (RIP The Beach Waterpark).
  13. Hersheypark isn't owned by the chocolate company, it's owned by Hershey Entertainment and Resorts. They have to pay a licensing fee every time they use candy products in theming, etc.
  14. They have a Burger King at Blackpool Pleasure Beach. I saw it when I went there in 2018. I have to say, just seeing it enhanced the guest experience at that park!
  15. Magic Mountain has returned its original logo to the outside marquee. Sure would be nice if other parks also regained their unique logos. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/19qYdjfyFA/?mibextid=wwXIfr
