BoddaH1994 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Check out this Cincinnati.com article about Banshee. You can expand the photo and see that there are clearly footings (or footers... whatever) for some sort of structure or lighting or... something! What could this be? 11 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Oh you and Don are buddies..you know darn well whats going there I bet ;P 13 Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Posted March 7, 2014 Devan - I can truthfully, honestly say that I have no idea what's going on there. None what so ever. 15 Quote
homestar92 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 I can tell all of you exactly what's going in there. But not until April 17th 13 Quote
Delirium2018 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Ugh! I wish they would just tell us what is happening in that circle! But I fear that we are taking this too seriously, and it will become area for lockers or just an area with some flowers and a few benches. But we don't know that for sure! 2 Quote
The Interpreter Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Depends on what your definition of we is. Diversionary O'Terpy, man of surprises. 8 Quote
malem Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 I'm just glad to see something there. It means that Action Zone will look less like a sea of concrete. 13 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Ryan...I still have a bit of a hard time believing you ;P But if ya don't know, no biggie... 2 Quote
homestar92 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Maybe it's where that green Intamin Giga is going. But you'll have to walk through a blue police box to ride it. The box will be bigger on the inside. That's how they've kept it secret so well. 10 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Please no phone box...it doesn't camouflage or work right half of the freaking time.. Just as reliable as said green track manufacturer 3 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 I don't even watch it..my gf and her friends do..I don't understand it..sigh 1 Quote
Fire-Beast-OF FEAR Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 My sister and friends are obsessed. I personally don't like it but I see where someone could. I'll stick to Trek for a while. 1 Quote
homestar92 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Perhaps it can disguise itself as a water tower. 9 Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Or perhaps not be there at all, as Cedar Fair does not own any rights of BBC characters 2 Quote
PyroKinesis Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Like I said in the other thread. Benches, flowers, ghosts, etc. Quote
CoastersRZ Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 I think whatever they are putting in there, will be a big visual improvement over how Action Zone has looked the past few years. They pretty much had a blank slate to work with. Cedar Fair has been doing wonderful jobs of refreshing entire areas of the park with new infrastructure when they make big installs. I am sure that the improvements in Action Zone, based on the images we have seen so far, will be no different. I am really excited to see all of the changes in person once the park opens. And of course to ride Banshee! 11 Quote
Adventuro Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 This is exciting.. But don't say it's going to be lockers cause everyone will disagree. But I still think it's a possibility even if it is in the middle of the area. Gatekeeper's lockers are kind of like that. Quote
GamesAndRides Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 I Think that maybe some of that "Projected Lighting" Could be going there. Maybe Something Like a Projection of a Banshee Flying By. Quote
Adventuro Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 So I just had an interesting thought... It looks like there are 7 footers... What if.. What if each footer was for a post, and each post had a cool sign with an arrow that points in the direction of each of the 7 AZ rides... It would be cool if they were creepy looking signs with the rides logos on them. 1 Quote
Tr0y Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 It could be this new food stand with chicken that they will be offering this coming season. 1 Quote
GamesAndRides Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 It could be this new food stand with chicken that they will be offering this coming season. That is taking over Stunt Crew Grill I think. Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted March 7, 2014 Author Posted March 7, 2014 Ryan...I still have a bit of a hard time believing you ;P But if ya don't know, no biggie... I get a lot of good information from a lot of quality sources within the company. Almost none comes from Mrs. Helbig's baby boy. 5 Quote
Tuskin Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Well, that was a lot of off topic posts above. Lets actually try to decode this and get back on topic eh? From what you can see in the photo it looks like their are 7 footers, but the image is cut off so we could be missing 1 or 2. You could also make the same case that one could be behind the digger, or whatever the technical term for that piece of equipment is. We clearly have something going into that circle, it is no longer just pavers. They did say it would be an unbelievable night experience so my first initial thought would be that those are footers for lighting for said night experience. but that seems like an awful lot of footers in one area for a light experience. This is a very interesting photo, indeed. 2 Quote
APE Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Say they were making a seating area wouldn't the base of light posts look like that? 2 Quote
Diamondbacker Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Say they were making a seating area wouldn't the base of light posts look like that? Probably the most reasonable speculation. Throw in a couple tables, make it another place for people to enjoy their chicken, ice cream, and Snickers. 1 Quote
Sonofbeast2.0 Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Could fit a Ferris wheel in that spot probably... 4 Quote
thegajone Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Why would they put 7 light posts in the middle of an already well-lit area? 1 Quote
APE Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 By the same token why would the put a ride in a congested area? Anyway it doesn't have to all be light polls maybe 4 light polls and 3 flags of some sort. 4 Quote
