  1. Thanks! I have trouble with some of them. But I hope they take it back to spongebob.
  2. There is. They are just tryinng to firgure out what. Terror Trail, hayride, new trail...I was told this today as I walked through the chiller area and 2 supervisors were out there talkiing about it and I asked. They were walking around and getting a visual basiclly.
  3. Ive yet to see a Fright Fest sign. Maybe soon they will start popping up. I was told the trick or treat trail is back, the signs were brought out of storage and put in the back rooms of the stores. I saw one behind the curtins in wiggles.
  4. If disney were to buy us they would be stupid. And that would be the end of coasters at GADV. It would all be a bunch of childish BS that I dont care about. I like disney and all but I can only go there like once every 3 years for the fact that certin parks are soooo boring (magic kingdom, epcot) The only one I actually look forward to is AK.
  5. Superman is supposed to be invinceable (Im sure I didnt spell that right, sorry) and word from my director is that 2 years ago in MM they tried doing superman and someone tested that theory, lets just say they dont want anymore supermans. There was no fatality, just a shot leg.
  6. Everyone wants flats and no coaster. And everyone is talking about the whole "79","89", and "99" thing. Did we all forget that in "99" we did not just recieve flats, we got a coaster. Thats what I want to happen this year. Flats and a B&M DM, but thats what I want and wish we could get but im not getting my hopes up until I hear some more news. And btw: If we were to get something, when would track start to arrive in the employee parking lot? my guess is in september.
  7. I dont really care about the water rides. Thats what HH is for, 2 is enough to me. 3 at tops.
  8. I couldnt find a thread about this but I think I remember one, but anyways. In a recent ariel update at KIcentral (3 pages worth) The first page is of the ohio fabrication plant. And as pointed about by screamscape and by common sense, there are 2 types of track on the ground, B&M hyper track AND alot of B&M dive machine track. So it was brought to my attention by someone at another sight that the pictures from months ago that everyone went crazy about were old because pieces of led zeppelin the ride were still there, well these photos are new and now we have conformation that there is still dive machine track there and that it wasnt shipped overseas to build vertical coaster. Now all they have to do is ship it to GADV and ill be content.
  9. Ok, Hershey was absolutly AMAZING. We arrived tuesday afternoon and decided to do the preview thing where you can go in after 7:30 and use that same ticket the next day. It was a great deal. We really didnt do much that afternoon, just walked the park to get a general feel for it. The next day we woke up at 8 AM and went to the park and waited for opening. By the looks of the lines at the gate an hour before park opening it was going to be a packed day. Being that I was with my parents and three kids under the age of four, I didnt get to just go free. So we started to head off towards the lightning racers end of the park. MISTAKE. That is were boardwalk is located and I have to say that at least 80% of the crowd went there. So needless to say we were only at the boardwalk for about an hour. Dried off and ready for rides, we hit the whip and ferris wheel. Then me and the parents did lightning racers.(For as old as it is, it still gives a GREAT smooth ride.) Then wildcat. By this time we are all aggervated with heat and hunger so we decide to head ALL the way over to minetown to eat. So, when we were done we went to a couple of kiddie rides so the kids could enjoy themeselves. Then, amazingly, my four year old brother went on falcon with me. And loved it, he is a roller coaster enthusiest in the making, lol. So then I went on trailblazer with him also. Hitting stormrunner also. Now we all decide to just take it easy a little, so we hit the kissing tower. It was great, got some great views of the park and factory. Of course with the little ones we had to do the car ride. Way boring..=] Then I hit up great bear, it was also quite amazing. Then we decided to see if the kids would like the log flume. The ride was short, but very fun. I could not leave with out riding fahrenheit. I was very lucky and got front row. This ride was out of this world. It is now in my top ten coasters, lol. Things I want to mention... -Falcon was a great flat, very thrilling. And I enjoyed it because I have never rode one like it. -Besides stormrunner, it seemed that EVERY coaster had a good clean coat of paint, or well maintained. -I was shocked at the cleanlyness of this park, it was absolutly spotless. -Not only were rides looking their best, but I couldnt find a building that needed work. Everything was in tip top shape. -Boardwalk was fun, but way to crowded. -Despite the crowd, lines were not bad at all. Im guessing this is because of what you guys say about flats reducing lines, hershey has tons of flats and lines were nothing. 30 min was longest wait. For fahrenheit. -Food was not great, they could do better. -Forgot to mention the show we saw, it was called the candy caper I believe and featured 2 sea lions or seals, w.e..but it was cool, animals + divers = Great show. -GADV could really use a tower like the kissing tower, it was a good calm ride, with AC. -Ok, this made me mad, my little brother could go on falcon, trailblazer, and coal crackler but couldnt go on bumper cars??!! WTF? -Overall, GREAT day and look forward to going back. This honestly has to be one of the best theme parks around. Ride Count. Great bear - 2x Fahrenheit - 2x Longflume - 2x falcon - 3x stormrunner - 1x lightning racers - 2x ferris wheel - 1x whip - 1x stupid dark ride - 1 waste of my time. wildcat - 1x trailblazer - 1x railroad - 1x monorail - 2x kissing tower - 2x car ride - 4x (brother insisted) I might be missing some, I did alot, lol. Pics to come!!
  10. I met walter today! hahaha...I was working a I heard him mention mouse in a box so I challenged his coaster shirt. lol, KK is WAY better than TTD..sorry walter. And btw: when I see someone wearing a TTD shirt at GADV it makes me mad but today it didnt. lol..
  11. I dont think so. They need the ferris wheel to hold the lights and speakers. Granted they could buy truses but the big wheel is fine. I dont think that concrete is a big deal, probley just because those plant were sitting there in the middle of the path. If it is for fright fest is is most likely for captain keelhauls casting call. If they still have that show. I remember the stage being there last year but dont remember the show.
  12. Anyways, cartoon network is terrible and so is nickelodeon and MTV, Nick sucks and shows dumb shows. MTV=Music Television but now it = Reality BS.
  13. Kings dominion disapointed me two years ago when I went last. I expected it to be great but it was awful.
  14. name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"> Hopefully this helps I believe this is what you were referring to, and if so now people don't have to worry about the search This is the Topple Tower at MarineLand in Canada. Thanks! Thats the one, it look amazing and I want GADV to get one, that and a drop tower for 2009,
  15. That is very interesting, not bashing what you are saying but how do you know they are fighting for it? I want this open, but I need solid proof, what you gave me gave me some more hope. =]
  16. OMG!!! I would ABSOLUTLY love to see one of these at GADV. That would be amazing. I can see people walking by and freak out for a second when all of a sudden it starts to topple...HAHAHAHA... BTW: I cant figure out how to put a video on here so you can search it on youtube. =]
  17. If that area of concrete is for fright fest, thats cool, but I dont want it to stay that way over the offseason, perfect size for a drop tower. Guest dont come to see the amazing slab of concrete. Thats all that little section is..concrete..some more concrete, and did I mention the concrete?
  18. soooooo, I dont get why thats importent. Its closedd for now and the sign is removed, I've heard that its gone come off season, and I have you and GAcoaster saying or should I say dropping hints it will make a comeback for fright fest. I dont know what to believe really, I just want to know everything now. As if I could have that happen..lol.
  19. But even though somebody here knows something we wont know till the announcement is made..=[[
  20. If the clearing is for fright fest thats fine, but Im going to be pissed if it stays a slab of concrete through the off season. Perfect amount of space for a drop tower. ; ]
  21. Im close friends with a park supervisor but they arnt always right. I want proof.
