Actually, I own a piece of Kings Island, Cedar Point, Canada's Wonderland and all other CF parks. Like someone said, it is all in FUN.

I doubt pelting the ride with marshmallows will make it fall any faster.

If it was up to me, I'd burn the thing down. That ride affected many employees in ways that some of you fanboys will never understand.

In light of recent discussion, I wonder how many of the posters here are Kings Island owners? The only organization I own any part of is the Green Bay Packers.

To have discussion more on topic, I'm also amazed how quick that Son of a Beast is coming down. I was hoping to get to see some of the deconstruction when I was home from school in October, but it looks like that won't be happening.

You guys know what I mean... Jesus, CAN A 15 YEAR OLD GET A BREAK!!!???

What site do you think this is? TPR? (the closest thing we have to TPR is Terpy, but that's a whole other ballgame)

Ouch! Now, that hurt.

Terp, who thought he was better than that.

Terpy IS better than that - hence, the other ballgame! It's all positive!

Well wrong or right, I don't care. I mean come on, he's still a great guy.

I will be at the park tomorrow and this will be very interesting to see. As will Haunt. And I had a terp once. I used it to cover my lawnmower. Wait. That's a tarp. Never mind.

update i just got back and umm i have intresting news.

Sob's whole half of the rose bowl is completely removed(the side closest to the second drop in to the rose bowl.)

I tried to take pics but i had no flash. and the whole entire brake run was removed.

Wow thats a lot. I hope someone can get a close up picture or a view from The Eiffel Tower or something. I really want to see it.

Other than from the Eiffel Tower, is there anywhere in the park to see this?

(A flash from that distance would not have helped get a picture at all.)

from Firehawk and from Diamondback

Is there a way to explain without opening a can of worms?

We drove by the park today and took some pictures from behind Great Wolf Lodge. Here are a few of the ones I took.

oh sorry i geus only part of the rose bowl then sorry for being disinformitive. You can only see so much from the park(the effiel tower was closed for some reason.)

Well for only having worked on the demolition for about a week, they are certainly moving pretty quickly. At this rate, the entire first rose bowl will be going in a matter of weeks. I doubt that they start demolition on the main lift hill before the end of the season. It is just too close to Adventure Express and Wolf Pack.

I'm not sure what was up with the Eiffel Tower. I did see one elevator ascend, but only one--probably maintenance.

Thank you for your insight, Beastie.

It looks to me like they should be about done by the time Haunt is over.

Great, very in-depth pictures!!! They really do show how far into demolition they have gotten....

That would affect so many people surrounding the area. The toxic fume from burning pressure treated lumber burning will create health hazard. Cedar Fair will not survive onslaught of lawsuits. Because the structure is made out of woods, that does not been it can be burned without any problem.

So what would have happened if it had caught on fire for some reason?

Do yourself a favor.

Look up the definition of sarcasm.

I thought this was mentioned back awhile ago in the topic....

I'll make sure we dont forget the marshmellows.

As a survivor of the 1986 Miamisburg Train Disaster (white phosphorus, anyone?) I'd have to say that toxic smoke can be fun!

It’s a word. What did you expect, a definition? It’s not like anyone ever picks up this dictionary to look up words anyway, so why bother. Etymology: it comes from a bunch of old words from languages that really survived the test of time, didn’t they? Usage: Pfft. Usage. people really care about this word, don't they? Ooh, big word! That really ought to sharpen everyone's vocabulary...

I wonder when RCDB will move SOB to the Defunct category?

Probably a lot sooner than a certain website will.

Thank you for the photo update. If I lived closer I would be by there every day to look at the progress of the demo.

^I would too, but 4 hours is a long way.

Great pictures, Beastie 1980! In my mind I see Robbie Knievel PhotoShopped over the gap...

That would be so awesome!! Glad you like the pictures, I'm going back down next week to take some more. I'll post the new ones for everyone to see.

Thank you Beastie1980! I absolutely love to see all the demo pictures. I am going on Oct 14th. I assumed that the majority of SoB would still be there but now I dont know. It may just be the station and the lift hill!
