Weird for the skyline for sure. Thousands of years from now archeologists will marvel at this and attempt to find significance related to the the sun and speculate on alien influences. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is going to some nifty trick considering those are stars. We will certainly need some major advances in air conditioning technology. A sun may be a nice place to visit but I sure wouldn’t want to live on one. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeviousMrMatt Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Speaking of the sun, the construction workers should have nice couple of beautiful fall days to build a coaster! It is days like this when I miss doing construction work while paying for school. I need to figure out a way to get out of the office today and do some site visits..... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThrillKingsFitzy Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 So just noticed this Fast Lane sign has a Taki's add on it. Has that always been there? Or was this Cedar Fair preparing for Six Flags? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fishleehooker Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 You know, I forgot to mention this but a few weeks ago...Fri or Sat, I forget now, they had Vortex down for a few hours while a guy was on top of the lift hill clearly installing a camera. Wonder if that has anything to do with anything? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if that has anything to do with anything? The coasters have a camera on the top of the lift hill, it's a final check to ensure guest safety. The resolution is not great, and if I recall they are black and white as well on Vortex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
