Kennywood is following in Cedar Point's footsteps and selling authentic track pieces from the park's three historic wooden roller coasters. Pieces of wood from Thunderbolt, Jack Rabbit, and Racer will be available for purchase during Phantom Fall Fest in the Arcade Gift Shop for $49.99 each.

It's been a minute since I posted here, but what does this Cheetah Hunt support support?

Keansburg didn't rebuild Wild Cat, Funtown Pier went out of business and only the cred-in-a-shed (Pirates Hideaway) survived at neighboring Casino Pier. Luna Park also ruined Cyclone's drop when they fixed the damage Sandy caused. :(

A permit application has been lodged for new entry signs at Universal Orlando Resort in Florida. If approved, the new signs will feature a digital display of popular franchises, including "Shrek," "Jurassic World," "Kung Fu Panda" and "Trolls." Source

My first double post in this thread. :) I managed to snag a ticket to last night's Remi Wolf show at the Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, my favorite New York City venue, before the show sold out in minutes. She added two additional shows on Monday night and tonight after that, which also sold out...

Quassy Amusement Park in Connecticut is adding two new rides for 2025, including an SBF Visa spinner. The other new attraction is a Wave Swinger manufactured by Wooddesign Amusement Rides, which will replace the Chance Rides "Yo-Yo" super swing. Source

Got to see Sofi Tukker at Forest Hills Stadium last night. Seems like every New York band I've seen here put on a great show with friends and family in attendance. Lots of songs from the new album, which I really like, but a few missing that I would have preferred (i.e. Mon Cheri, Sun Came Up...

It happened again. This time a smoke detector in a retail shop next to the ride sounded and everyone within the vicinity, including those queuing for the ride, were told to evacuate the area. Source

Oaks Amusement Park has filed a lawsuit against Zamperla over the AtmosFEAR incident on 14. June. Over two dozen riders were stranded upside down for about half an hour after a malfunction caused the Discovery Revolution to get stuck at the top. A parent of one of a 14-year-old stranded rider...

Biting insects attack guests at Gardaland. Clicky for video.

Alton Towers evacuated the area around Wicker Man on Saturday after its fire alarm went off. The ride was reopened shortly thereafter but was once again evacuated when the fire alarm sounded a second time. The park has shut down the ride until further notice to conduct maintenance work. The...

The park revealed plans for the all-new Wild Oasis realm. Breathing new life into the Treetop Trails of the Jungala area of the park, it will feature attractions, animal exhibits, and other dynamic elements. The area is designed to spark creativity and imagination and is expected to open in...

I agree with you on almost every point. SteVe didn't even break into my Top 10, although it's #6 in my RMC ranking. I'm surprised you didn't mention maXair along with Skyhawk, the park's two best flats. I don't mind Power Tower, it's just that I've been on too many of them to rank it up there...

About time I posted these:

The Cyclone reopened this weekend after undergoing repairs and maintenance that took a couple of weeks to complete.
