Sebastien6221 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Do you by chance have links to the other webcams full screen?

AZ Kinda Guy Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Like others have mentioned, the activity going on next to Delirium is nothing more than access roads. 2
Oldiesmann Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Whatever the name is, I am going to hear Pat Carroll's voice in my head delivering the safety rules. Could you just imagine? I would LOVE to hear her voice coming out of the speakers at Banshee! Am I the only one who instantly recognized her as the voice of Grandma from the two Garfield holiday TV specials? 4
Coasterama Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Something new has shown up on Google Maps, "Maps" being the key word there. It's about time Google responded to my report. 5
GamesAndRides Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Something new has shown up on Google Maps, "Maps" being the key word there. (Google Map Picture Of Banshee) It's about time Google responded to my report. Is it just me, Or why does all the blue on Banshee Is now Purple? 5
rcwizard13 Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 Something new has shown up on Google Maps, "Maps" being the key word there. It's about time Google responded to my report. That's the new Google Maps. If you're like me and still use the old version, it is still SOB. The new maps use the exact same imagery as Earth, so it makes sense it would be updated on those ones. 4
Kat Posted March 29, 2014 Posted March 29, 2014 ^^yeah Banshee does look purple on there, and the AZ circle shown is obviously no longer there. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S4 using Tapatalk 5
steveinphoenix Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 But in Google Earth, when you go to the "street view" from inside the park you still see Son of Beast. Those have not been updated yet...and it may be awhile before they are. 4
Delirium2018 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I don't think the line they are making for Banshee is going to be big enough. But that's just me.
APE Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Keep in mind how many people per hour the ride will be able to run through. You may not need a huge area for the line. 2
Delirium2018 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 That is true. But do you think it could hold the Opening Day crowd? What about the giant over crowded Saturday on opening weekend?
APE Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 The line for opening day will be obscene just like the for Diamondback was. After that it should be enough room 1
Fire-Beast-OF FEAR Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 The park might also be thinking ahead for future use of their queue lines. How many times a year do you see many sections of Diamondback's and The Beast's queue open and used. Same with Flight of Fear that may only use sections once a year or once every few years and for The Bat they just had to remove a section of queue that hasn't been used in almost two decades. If the park makes an entire section of queue that will most likely only be used for one time in it's entire existence as a ride seems ridiculous. 1
Delirium2018 Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 What time do people and enthusiasts start lining up to get into the park? @TheCrypt very true.
The Interpreter Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 The park has not opened at noon on opening day in recent memory, and certainly not under current management. What time the parking lot will open is only a subject for conjecture until it is announced. Even then, plans can change. 4
Fire-Beast-OF FEAR Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 Actually I don't go to Haunt very often (almost years apart) so no I haven't seen the Haunt lines. You do make a strong point .
xXDrummerKiDXx Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I imagine parking lots would open around 10:00am on opening day. Just thinking of the traffic jam opening day may have makes me want to rent a hotel near KI and just walk. But, you have to be 18+ to rent a hotel. 1
ProdigyRider Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I would say the overflow could use Wolf Pack's queue line down near The Bat, but not through the maze, unless its been cleared for use.
MarkB. Posted March 30, 2014 Posted March 30, 2014 I know I'm a little late to this but here is an idea for Banshee's name ---Dottie (just look up the movie Armageddon on IMDB and look through the quotes). Later, Mark
UnrealNightmare Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 I imagine parking lots would open around 10:00am on opening day. Just thinking of the traffic jam opening day may have makes me want to rent a hotel near KI and just walk. But, you have to be 18+ to rent a hotel. We'll be doing this exact thing except not walking. There's a shuttle from the hotel that we are staying at. 1
Mrs. No Chickens Posted March 31, 2014 Posted March 31, 2014 ^Oh, well, sounds like you are staying across the street. We are too. Do you know if that shuttle will run through closing the park? 1
