BavarianBeatle Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 If FD is to be replaced, I believe that something similar to The Raven that would use the terrain would make a very nice addition to the park. Quote
Outdoor Man Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 speaking of rides leaving/taken out. Who in here thinks that Tomb Raider/the Crypt's days are seriously numbered? I don't think I have been there too many times that the thing has been open this summer. Maybe I'm just there on the wrong days, but I can probably place it under the 25% of the time. Quote
Kawana Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I think there's a 50-50 chance that they may stay...or not. Either they'll stay, or they won't. 50-50. Isn't that how that works Terpy? Quote
The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Hmmmm...that's what people tell me about the odds when one applies for a job, but I suspect many other factors are at work....it's not just random chance. Quote

I don't think I have been there too many times that the thing has been open this summer. Maybe I'm just there on the wrong days, but I can probably place it under the 25% of the time. It was working very consistantly in the begining of the year, but It's been closed for weeks now. But at the front gates they don't put the Crypt on rides closed that day. I think the Crypt is closed because of the construction, and I do not see it leaving soon. Quote
The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 With a viewpoint like that, you may have a promising career in front of you in public relations, should you so choose. Quote
Beast1979 Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Well, it's always got very short waits, "People don't Come here anymore. Maybe it's too Popular!" Quote
The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Different Yogi, and even he may be coming back, so that may not be a Boo Boo... Quote
Cormaster Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I think we're all just guessing. I highly doubt Cedar Fair has any plans to remove either ride. After all Cedar Point still has Iron dragon and its older than top gun! Quote

The Interpreter Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 Me for one...I'm the one busily reading every sign in sight, and looking for changes, darting into restaurants and shops, observing other park patrons and busily taking in the ethnography of the place. Quote

I usually check the signs, too, while watching the rides. Quote
Jasper Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I could just sit back and watch KI all day kind of like a painting come to life right before your eyes. I love the effect it has on me. Quote
fanofki Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 One of my favorite views in being a mile or so away and seeing the Eiffel Tower, Son of Beast, Drop Tower, Slingshot, and Xtreme Skyflyer jetting out of the ground. I guess I will have Diamondback to look forward to next year, too. Quote
Vortex Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 I did not see the Tomb Raider/the Crypt's listed as close out front. Now they had a sign up where the line would start. Also anyone else see that Spongebob is gone for the season. Quote

Touchdown Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 The Crypt was open all day Saturday. Quote
