Oldschool75 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Looks like 3 new trademarks have been made public. Wonder what they are for? Voyage to the Iron Reef http://www.trademarkia.com/voyage-to-the-iron-reef-86423002.html Run & Ride http://www.trademarkia.com/run--ride-86424523.html Backyard Ball http://www.trademarkia.com/backyard-ball-86425386.html Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. 5 Quote
KIBeast Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Run and Ride looks like some kind of awareness or fund raising event possibly. Voyage to the Iron Reef could be a ride (not sure what) with souvenirs to go with it. 1 Quote
malem Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Run & Ride was an event held this year at many (all?) Cedar Fair parks. For Kings Island's event, see https://www.visitkingsisland.com/runandride/the-races "Voyage to the Iron Reef" sounds like it could be a Wonder Mountain's Guardian style dark ride/film. If successful at Canada's Wonderland, I believe that the intention was to buy more installations. 3 Quote
upstop Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 ^^ could very well be just that or maybe a watercoaster of some kind. Plus it looks like there are umbrella souvenirs and storage bags on the list as well. Quote
KIBeast Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 I was just reading under the words that describe Back Yard Ball. Words that caught my eye are outdoor, sports, competitions, tournaments. Possibly a basketball tournament. 3 on 3? 4 Quote
marth555 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 Its to see who can annoy the most park guests by bouncing bastketballs 15 Quote
MDMC01 Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 When I saw that there was a trademark for "Voyage to the Iron Reef", I thought it could be a new 3D movie. When I actually went to the site where the trademark is and saw all its applicable uses, I thought it could possibly an event of some sort (I don't what kind of event though). However, it could also be a ride. Quote

Hank Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Its to see who can annoy the most park guests by bouncing bastketballs As far as I'm concerned, make an area strictly for bouncing basketballs - and they can call it whatever they want - and get a trademark for it, too! Then, keep those f**king balls out of the park and out of my way before they cause a migraine or, worse yet, a fall! 4 Quote

malem Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Backyard Ball: A sports tournament? A game? A basketball tournament to be held on the 3-Point Challenge court? A formal dance located in the Picnic Grove? 5 Quote
Hank Posted October 25, 2014 Posted October 25, 2014 Backyard Ball.... a place behind the park where parents take their little ones to cry. .a chapel-like building on picnic grounds, usually used for weddings where the ceremony makes you weepy. the VERY FIRST outdoor area, in back of the park. where couples can go to make-out during their visit to said park. ......Cedar Fair's version of Bocce. 1 Quote

TombRaiderFTW Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I can't find the link for the life of me, but it was mentioned somewhere online that Cedar Fair and Triotech (may be? are?) making an announcement towards the beginning of the week of IAAPA. Hmm... 3 Quote
The Interpreter Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Look! Over there! A diversion! 3 Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 It's IAAPA... Isn't one of the bigger points of the thing to be the biggest diversion of the show? 3 Quote
TTD-120-420 Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Is it too late to go to IAAPA? I don't know how it works. Can I just show up? Quote
The Interpreter Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 I don't think so. In fact, I thought going was part of the program you are in down there. Ask around. Normally, one attends as part of an organization, as an IAAPA member, as a vendor, etc. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged. It's typically been much more expensive to register at the event. 2 Quote
Outdoor Man Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 You can 'just show up'. On site registration is pricey... 2 Quote
The Interpreter Posted November 11, 2014 Posted November 11, 2014 Again, TYD-120-420 should ask around at work. Deals abound. 1 Quote
WOF Guy Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 If you just want to explore the show floor I'd recommend getting discounted admission for Thursday/Friday. Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 ^ Is there a reason the admission is less on Thursday and Friday, apart from it just being the end of the week? I'm just curious because I didn't know they did discount admission towards the end of the week. Quote
The Interpreter Posted November 12, 2014 Posted November 12, 2014 Yes. The real negotiations and buying takes place early. A lot of the movers and shakers are gone by Thursday. You can't network with people who aren't there.... Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 If you go, take many pictures. We'd love to see 'em. 1 Quote
RingMaster Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Yeah, about that Voyage to the Iron Reef trademark:http://www.trbimg.com/img-5464b39f/turbine/la-trb-knotts-berry-farm-voyage-iron-reef-2014-001/400/400x225 And story link: http://www.latimes.com/travel/themeparks/la-trb-knotts-berry-farm-voyage-iron-reef-20141113-story.html?nrfd#page=1 4 Quote
calakapepe Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Looks like it won't be a "roller coaster" dark ride, thank goodness.Remember what seems to happen when other CF parks get similar rides year-after-year? *crosses fingers for the future* 1 Quote
MDMC01 Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 That looks so cool; I think that would definitely ride this if I ever went to Knott's! 1 Quote
