Old Blackpool Adverts

Smithy

I'm struggling to find some old adverts for BPB where they market PMBO as the tallest in Europe, and Infusion as the only ride fully over water. It's fine if they're even just flyers. Any help kind people?
 
Are you talking just 2007 or older for pmbo?

The infusion stuff was just press release snippets, not actual advertising if I remember correctly. Pmbo hasn't been openly/officially advertised as tallest in Europe beyond the park gates for a long time. Despite contrary remarks from Amanda, they know that they're open to complaints to the asa if it was on a tv ad, news ad or whatever.

So you may find the quest to get the stuff quite hard.

sent from my bum via a fancy phone.
 
Anything that came from BPB which had world first or europes tallest etc will do. But yeah thinking about it a lot of it was probably more off-the-cuff comments rather than official. Cheers anyway.
 
The company also has interests at Frontierland, Morecambe and an associated Amusement Park at
Pleasureland, Southport.

Oh, Amanda <3

ICE BLAST
210 feet 80 mph

Oh, Blackpool.

65 degree drop - steepest in the world.

Hahah <3

SPACE INVADER 2 - Maximum speed – 65 mph.

HAHAHA. That's just OBSCENE.

I love the bare-faced cheek of it all, haha. 65mph for Space Invader! SIXTY FIVE! Hahaha <3
 
And I thought the CF Blackpool page was out of date :lol:

Is that a clear link to get there Smithy, or did you have to ferret around for it? I'd hope the latter...
 
I remembered FL sent me an info pack last time I e-mailed them. So I did the following.

1. Google'd "Blackpool information pack".
2. Picked the first result, from the offical Blackpool page.
3. ????
4. Profit

Having said that, it does appear whilst it's still hosted, you can't access it via the website. Following the website, this is the latest version of their education pack.

I still notice PMBO as having "the steepest drop in the world".
 
^And it still says Ice Blast is 80mph <///3

ALSO

state of the art holes to entertain both young and old.

I also love how the ride list now is like, half the length, cause Amanda has RIPPED loads out <3
