italianchef Posted May 26, 2003 Share Posted May 26, 2003 Today I watched PKI on The Travel Channel. It was one of many parks featured on a show called THE ULTIMATE THRILL and there might be an encore presentation of it tonight. Drop Zone, Son of Beast, and The Beast were featured in the presentation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabelogan99 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Nothing about TR:TR or Delirium... Interesting... Actually, they mentioned Delerium, but I belive it was the one at...I wanna say PGA, but I could be wrong. Anyone know the diff? It's the seats, isn't it?

shadow2k3 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Yeah, It's the seats. That Delerium seats less and faces inward. It also doesn't swing as high. ~Shadow~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt3224 Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Yea, I think it came out in March! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterdime Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 That was a fun show! I was there for the filming, so my legs are featured on DZ, and I'm a smiling, happy, clapping rider about to take his 25th ride on SOB! (I'm on for a split second in the segment shot in the station.) Jeff Siebert kept us alive and laughing every time the train passed through the station.... The Drop Zone shoot was especially funny. The park wanted at least 50 riders. (to make sure there were plenty of people) If I remember correctly, fewer than 20 showed up! Mr. Siebert was so desperate to find riders, he joked about pulling the fire alarm at Kings High School! If you look at some of the shots, you will see a few empty seats....I still don't know where they found as many people as they did! It was a cool show though....even though the TR:TR footage has yet to be shown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonLord Posted May 27, 2003 Share Posted May 27, 2003 Ahhh! We need to talk with Jeff about the TR:TR footage! He should know when it is going to air! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PKIDelirium Posted May 28, 2003 Share Posted May 28, 2003 The show said Drop Zone was built in 2001!!! It opened with F/O in 1998 or 99! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CYoung2003 Posted May 29, 2003 Share Posted May 29, 2003 Yeah Drop Zone came out in 1999 along with Face/Off and the newley themed Congo Falls (formerly Amazon Falls). Im pretty sure i started at PKI in 2001 at Drop Zone and Im also pretty sure it wasnt new! (note the scarcasim ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
