Re: Bye-Bye Giraffica aka Pilgrims Plunge I am not trying argue here, but based on the investor relations pages of a few major companies, parks operate with a margin of about 10% (after all expenses). I bet they are lower than that with no revenue for parking or drinks. I guess what I am...

^^No the correct answer was already posted. ^Right and then wrong. The first Six Flags was over Texas and then when Wayne sold the new company expanded to other markets. They shoe horned the "Six Flags over" brand in to parks like Georgia and Mid-America (St. Louis). Every other park in the...

^To be fair it should have been 8-nil but that German player choked on a breakaway.

1: All of the parks are open, including both Fun Spots. The only one I cant confirm off top of head is Old Town (has 2 credzzz) 2: Yes. For the most part all parks will open at 9 but will close by 6 or 7. Fun Spot typically opens around 3 or 4 in the offseason and closes around 10. Most parks do...

It really can be hit or miss depending on the ride capacity and the grouper. Whenever I was a grouper at rides like the Hulk I utilized the single rider for every odd group. Other groupers will group a train mixing and matching odd groups from the regular line reducing space for single riders...

^The Universal app has added 100 minutes to that total as of right now. I have heard the area is another 3-4 hour wait to get in, I don't know if I love anything enough to wait that long.

You were vomiting out information other people supplied. You weren't spot on anything.

FHP was out all night telling people to get lost. I was sound asleep but have had a few friends sent texts that they were at UO at 2 and were told to wait somewhere else.

This ride has some bad luck eh? It was 2008 or 2007 that the guy got struck in the head going for a lost article?

Re: Bye-Bye Giraffica aka Pilgrims Plunge I usually only watch LOGO for the Roseanne reruns. This is pretty entertaining.

Re: Bye-Bye Giraffica aka Pilgrims Plunge I never pictured Holiday World to be in the financial range to afford a B&M, honestly I am a bit disappointed this wont be a 4th GG/CCI woody.

^Yeah, I guess on second look the last 1/3 of the ride has a different layout. Either way you should probably keep your vocal chords warmed up, i'd imagine you will be yelling in a few months.

Re: B&M Dive Machine for Gardaland in 2015 (?) Serious question, are there any clones of B&M's in Europe? I haven't seen a marketing department make **** up like this outside of China...or Aquatica.

Looks like someone took the layout of Leviathan and pasted it onto a google maps of Carowinds. If that is real I will be disappointed in the apparent lack of creativity.

Fair enough. Although I wouldnt necassarily compare a slang word that a good portion of the "offended" party identify with to throwing bananas at black players.

What does that say about the world, that the most popular sport still has to have say no to racism statements? At least in America we keep our racism to the diner table and job hiring practices.

Really curious where all these reviews are coming from as only the train has soft opened so far.

^Not complaining about the length or pace of play, just how is stoppage time calculated? Seems like its some magic # that the refs makeup depending on the score and if a favorite is losing, IE +5 with Portugal down a goal.

There are watch parties for all sports. This isn't an uncommon occurrence and happens for most real sports. Its my one complaint as an American is stoppage time. Even announcers cant figure it out. Would love to see a study done of stoppage time awarded vs. actual delay time. I mean, for every...

It is part of the dispatch. (Have operated both dives in America and 2 floorless coasters). :lol: That imagine is a funny one. As others have mentioned there is a mobile floor that is put into place to stand on. The dive coasters have trolleys, because of the angle of the lift.
