The cool thing is, nobody is forcing anyone to go to SDC or like their rides.  If you don't like them or just love to hate on or complain about the park, don't go and don't worry about it.  Problem solved.  I've been going to SDC since I was a kid and I am in my mid-50s.  Nothing would ever get me this worked up about anything involving the park.  I live 4 hours away and go to the park anywhere from 6-8 times a year. I enjoy our visits, our now-adult kids love going and that's all that matters and why we still go.  If you hate it or hate the current leadership then quit going and quit coming on this site to b*tch about it. 

Sorry, I am not a frequent poster, but have been on this site for many years.  I usually just enjoy the posts, trip reports and speculation, but this site has gotten freaking childish the past few months. 

Everyone enjoy their day. 

Appreciate the work, Shave.  Didn't realize how much I enjoy the site, until it's gone! 

Here's a great documentary from the two Hershcend brothers that own the park.

Once again, thank you for your tireless work on this site.   I've been in withdrawal the past week.   

Something odd has been going on where we are getting massive bandwidth usage every month now. Like 10x what we would commonly see in a month a couple years ago. We are using more bandwidth per month now than back in the 2010's when this site was hopping. I am assuming it is AI/bot traffic. Not really sure how to handle it yet.

Happy Opening Day, everyone!   

We bought one in SDC a few years ago.  Not sure it is still available there or not.

Nice find! 

Appreciate the updates from everyone.   Look forward to seeing the progress come March.

Well, it looks like TNT will be getting a stay of execution thru at least 2027 per Brad Thomas. (scroll to bottom pic) https://negative-g.com/silver-dollar-city/2025/coaster-christmas/silver-dollar-city-2025-coaster-christmas.htm

Fantastic work.  Enjoyed the pics and the descriptions.

At FanFest Brad mentioned that the new live tree that will be in the plaza (behind Red Gold) will have a lighting similar to the Rockefeller Tree in NYC.  That to me sounds like they will have a countdown every night and turn all the lights on at once.  Just my interpretation.  I would be SHOCKED if they ever changed/stopped the animated tree in the Main Street square.

Great piece.  Enjoyed it.

Uh oh, that doesn't sound good.

I certainly appreciate your time and effort you put into it.  I still check it daily!

SDC sells that documentary in DVD form in the park.  I bought it years ago.  I've watched it numerous times.  Great stuff.

WOW! Exciting news! Thanks for sharing the information!  Look forward to the speculation, future photos and updates!!
