  1. The last time I got to ride both sides, Batman and Robin, was probably around 1999-2000.

    It was about that time when they were running one or the other instead of both. I am pretty sure it was 1999 because I remember the hype of Medusa and all the new stuff pertaining to the War On Lines campaign.

    Sad that we'll never have the chance again.

  2. I remember it now. The name threw me off. I'd like a ride like that back too. All those kind of rides were fun.

    In my opinion the park should bring back two or three of these rides every year.

    Forget new coasters for a while, maintain the coasters they have then restore and/or repair the flats they have. I.E. Carousel, Fantasy Fling, Buccaneer.

    If they add a few rides every year they'll knock the lines down again and keep guests happy all while not spending an exuberant amount of money on new coasters the park doesn't need.

    :TwoCents:

  3. How about a spotlight on certain food stalls or a combined spotlight on a few?

    Like maybe the Great American Hamburger (now Johnny Rockets), Mustard's Last Stand (Now Nathans Famous) and the place that was the McDonald's by the lakefront.

     

    Just a few suggestions for discussion. :Z21:

  4. I am lucky to have ridden most of the rides, that I wanted to, that have adorned the park since my first visit in 1974.

    Personally I would love to ride Viper again. The Sarajevo Bobsleds is another ride I miss very much. That was a fun ride.

     

    The ride I miss the most and wish I could ride over and over again is Freefall. I really dig that feeling of falling like that.

  5. I would have to agree with Upallnite. My least favorite ride has to be Dark Knight.

    There was so much hype and it did not live up to that hype in my opinion.

    Dark Knight is an OK wild mouse coaster but I feel it failed to meet expectations.

    It seems that Dark Knight was built to camouflage the fact that Old Country was being closed off.

    We lost Freefall the year before. Then Chiller and MTWE were removed. And the area with Autobahn and Muzik Express was shut.

    We literally lost five rides for one. And if you add the loss of Flying Wave and the fact The Houdini's Great Escape was closed brings the total to seven rides lost.

    All this combined with a poor ride experience helps to make Dark Knight one of my least favorite rides.
