CP 9/5-7
It may not be of paramount importance but it is an issue of FUN. (phantomtheater who could not resist) There is nothing like the first trip to CP at 48" when you can finally ride the "big" coasters. This time BS and CCMR, maybe next time Gemini and Corkscrew.

Halloween Haunt 2010
The question is, will this policy remain or will it get changed? CF is very good at changing there mind on things.

SHOOT THE RAPIDS at Cedar Point
If you have ridden any CP water ride, you have swam in Lake Erie/Sandusky Bay. You can see the intake on perimeter road by Thunder Canyon. The lake is by far cleaner then it use to be, my mom rembers when you could smell dead fish from the Oceana Midway.

Confirmed Snoopy Coming to Kings Island...
CF association began in 97 when they aquired Knotts, and expanded snoopy to other parks in 99. Nick at PP has a longer association.

Geauga Lake
It is believed attendance was rising in 07 even though CF claimed they were flat. The first waterpark at GL was better than WWK BD is standing, carousel is there "awaiting refurbishment and moved to another CF park" (CF fails at carousel maintenance) and RWB is only wooden frame and cannot run again. To me the glory years were late Funtime era from 88-95 and the Premier era from 96-99. SF Ohio wasn't bad, Combined Sea World/GL should never have happened IMO, however it did create a mega park which drew over 2 million visitors. If it last, they need to expand it There is always a chance, however Bainbridge and Aurora havent been to helpfull It was, it really was and I can never forgive CF and it's CEO for what happened.

SHOOT THE RAPIDS at Cedar Point
Shoot the Rapids is a nod to a flume ride that existed from 1967-1981 (replaced by WWL). I too was hoping for a traditional log flume, with the restraints, there will be a definite height restriction unlike traditional flumes in which a child can ride accompanied by an adult.

Cedar Point PTR August 20, 2009
You have incorrectly identified a ride! You rode the Antique cars not the Cadillac cars, the Cad cars are located on the main midway.

1200+ miles, four parks, and some great wood coasters
That is as close as I got to the Logansport carousel as well, it is very disappointing when one can not ride such a beautiful creation. Notice how there are no jumpers on the carousel, all the horses are stationary.

Intresting CP Tweet
Is that not what we do as coaster forum enthusiast, find the littlest thing to make a huge rumor about it. Also, to over analyze little details and try to get more out of something, in which there is ultimately nothing there.

Intresting CP Tweet
Diamondback FOF look carefully to what you Google, as there is a real Crystal Rock water company, but they are not the CR Bottling Company of WV. Trust me, I made sure of that before I posted.
