Who ever did it.... it’s a great PR stunt that got folks talking. Maybe “Giga” is the name of the new restaurant going into Coney Mall.

Now that would be funny!

I mean they do have some games named "Giga" at the park....stranger things could happen!

Giga-dy, giga-dy, goo!

 

Certainly was not me lol. My style, but not me.

Hmm. Maybe it came from the kid that initiated this discussion...maybe QuantumMechanicsInMotion is an associate, maybe they did it. The kid knew the date it was posted and wrote a catchy news feed on it. My bet is on that kid, either him or chugh43...they knew dates and wrote scheme news feeds there after.

Seeing as I was no where near the park when this showed up, wasn’t me. But that’s funny! What a crazy turn of events that’d be.

Hmm. My initial instincts led me to think it was the other kid, QuantumMechanicsInMotion. I hold that kid liable for saturating this forum with such implausible information, the act of permeating invalidated information is ethically subordinate.  Hhh...Grow up please, there is an abundance of valid information to discuss. Kids, kids...kids. Please stop playing in the snow.

Bring on the Giga!

Hold on, let me go write in the snow the stats for it.

I hope its over 330'!

Don't forget the name!

What if they named it Gigacoaster hahaha

How about The Giga? Lol

Don't you mean GiGa?

Hear me out: The Gigasaurus, based partially off Cedar Fair's previous trademark, Stratasaurus.

Top Thrill Gigster?

I like it, but what if it is a B&M? Would that be taboo?

They can just stick with Roller Coaster Tycoon ways of naming things:

Gigacoaster 1

This is just me hoping for an Intamin to be placed at KI lol

As I have said before, I would be surprised if Cedar Fair gets a new Intamin.  I believe that the last new Intamin coaster installed in the United States was Skyrush at Hershey back in 2012.

I know Intamin has been active over seas though.

Yeah that is why I'd love to see another and hoping its KI. People may think bad things about them but from what I know MF @ CP works just fine. Its also one of the most popular  / best coasters in the world!! its my own opinion I just love their coasters. I want to ride the Hershey Intamins so bad! I need to get there! 

Hershey is a nice park.  I haven`t been there since they added Skyrush though.  While Millenium Force has been relatively trouble free, Top Thrill Dragster has had its fair share of issues.  And when I was at Knott`s back in April of 2015, Xcelerator was also down due to maintenance related issues.  Intamin has had some great rides.  I love Millinium Force as well (and thoroughly enjoy Wicked Twister, and Maverick now that it has the new restraints on it).  

Yeah Intamins are literally my top 3 fav. Call me a fanboy ( cuz I am) lol

Maybe Intamin has been quite in the US and has been working on somethings. I'd just like to see one in Ki to have the park a verity of coasters.

I like the Intamins I have been on.  The only complaint I have is the restraint.  On TTD, they need to have about an inch more on the seatbelt.  

In theory I'd love to have an Intamin GiGa at KI.  I just don't know how feasible ThAt is at ThIs point.

Well we have gotten way off topic lol Coney Mall. I wish we could  get new pics of the progress.

So it sounds like your answer to my question would be yes.

Hershey is a great place and 2 out of the 3 Intamin Coasters are fun. Storm Runner is fantastic (and along with Lightning Racer and Great Bear, is one of my favorite coasters there) and Farenheit is fun. Skyrush looks fun, but it's painful as it crushes your theighs, especially in a wing seat. Ymmv, but imo, just do it for the credit and move on any of three nearby coasters (Great Bear, sooperdooperlooper or Comet).

Wave Breaker opened at SeaWorld San Antonio in 2017 and Harry Potter and the Escape from Gringotts at Universal Studios Florida in 2014. They've definitely been less active in the U.S. though.

I agree that Skyrush crushes your thighs, but in my opinion the sheer speed and intensity of the ride make it worth it. I'd obviously prefer to avoid the discomfort, but I'll accept it.
