  1. rn it. Now If they wold only paint it to look like the old Super Teepee ..and make it fit in with western theme.
  2. Heared this as well. The other two were Six Flags Over Georgia and a water park in Texas.
  3. Fantastic photos.. Im so glad that Dream Streets being showen some love. Banners are back and so are some walkways. Now about the lamp posts?
  4. Yes it it can be but that is most park policies. And its inn the GA handbook for ride loading. If I remember correctly. ex. on log flume it as two in the back and three in the front when loading. Congo is pretty much fill the raft, Same the Skyride two on each side. etc. They do it at Disney, Busch Parks and Universal as well. Max. out capacity on all attractions.
  5. Hope you can find the 74 one with a little boy talking about hes trip!
  6. That Garden was in memorial to those who passed in that fire. At one point there was a sign there stating that.
  7. At one point in time we used all 36 cars. And always loaded the cars in groups of 4 to 6.. It wasnt very often that we forced 3 couples in to one car. And yes a wait time of 30mins. would be reason to revert to old loading ops.
  8. Looking for 1975 Foldout map.
  9. This would have been a great addition to the park. I still feel that Gingerbread Fancy should be returned to a sit down. As it was planned. We have more then enough counter service areas now,
  10. Totally agree.....Ive always said that any marvelrhemed rides belong in that area...Not all over the park. Superheros
  11. Coaster, ive stated before they should hire a butch of us. But still no reply.
  12. Agreed. When I talk theming Im talking Epic Level. Not a plywood cut out. Joker Cybor, you get the idea. Everything about the attraction needs to work with whats around it. Plantings eatiers shops. GA example Frontier Adventure, Dream Street, Strawberry Fair, Fun Fair (to a point) Not Slabs of of walk way with hedgerow. Im talking trees, Flowers and yes Grass. With everything around the attraction or area working together. Joel with Dollywood, Holiday World, All those are very heavy on theme. Johns work the same. Seaworld, Williamsburg. Both would be great. But I would also see stock holders screaming. Just a thought.
  13. Both would be great choices. But the companies they would come from are about adding to the parks as well as very heavy theming. Which in the last 10 yrs. has been much of what Six Flags..Isnt interested in. Jus a thought.
  14. Nice map! But everyones got a point...And GA should keep superheros in the same area.....
  15. In thee first 3 years of park wee could ride the Merry go round...and clown around on it!

    FOOD 001 copy

    Best of the West..Ride Ops had the saame ones but replace the hats with Cowboy Hats..
  17. If you look at the picture of Big Wheel. You can see how the spot lights on the cars lighted the inner frame of it and made it look light and airy!
  18. I would ove to see Dream Street restored for the fountain to the tents. Banners replaced decorotive light posts. Some plantings in front of Tents. Bring it back to 1975-76 look.
  19. Well yes and no. Way back ...I belive in the early 80s. Someone high in Jersey State goverment. Lost his son on a Muisc Express..the story goes he thought the ride was over stood up and did a few sumersalts backwards. And after that came the crack down on ride safety.
  20. Loose the Joker theme and call it the Hi Diver Stunt Coaster...Go back to Blackbeards Crazy Train..And Call the area Neptunrs Kingdom....Keep DC in movietown
  21. When the park first opened there was a lot of cross referances to Tavern on the Green..And yes the first year the park was truly magical...Thats why some of old timers think GA today while good is nothing more then ....
  22. Loose articles damages thr ride and are dangerous to the you and other riders..so I do wish people wold stop moaning about polices.
