Perhaps the new FITH will simply be an indoor dark coaster like the one they have at Six Flags.

Yes, it is completely accurate to say they have stopped caring a long time ago...about the sticking to theme that you are stepping back in time.  Just the design of the new buildings says that.  It is more more becoming just another theme park.

I am not paying for some sort of increased level in order to not have blackout dates.  I am about 98% sure I am not buying passes for next year and if they implement blackout dates, I will be done for good.

Just wait until the lawsuits start rolling in.

The clientele seems to be changing as of late, so this is of no surprise to me.

I did notice a lot of pumpkin damage. I also noticed damage to various mum plantings and such. It seems people are letting their kids run amock in the decorated areas, sometimes to get pictures. I noticed some dbags letting their kids climb on the giant pumpkins for a photo. I also noticed one of the giant pumpkins was full of carvings where idiots were leaving their names. Felt like something you'd see at SF - SDC guests are "usually" better behaved!

I highly doubt I am buying passes next year, which will be the first time in many years.  If they start blacking out dates I would pretty much be done with SDC at that point.

I made my first trip ever to SFOT and rode MR Freeze.  Wow this is one intense ride.

I have ridden it a bunch of times and I liked it but really do not ride it anymore as I find the restraint system to be uncomfortable on my legs.  If it had older the shoulder restraints I would ride it quite a bit more.  I have not been on it at all this year and I do not think I was last year either.

We were at the park Friday and Saturday.  It did not seem particularly busy but then again with the trail blazer passes we did not really wait in line too much.  I will say it appears they have a ton of new employees that might be guest workers of some sort.  At times at the rides it did not appear they were very organized or knew what to do.  At one point at the TT there were a few of us in the TB line and folks in the regular line just walked up and got on whatever spots they wanted at the bottom of the stairs.  After that, we were assigned our spot and I saw people instead of waiting in the main line, they just sort of cut thru and simply got on a number and nothing was done about it.  At the barn swing, normally they tell you what seat to get in.  The 3 times we rode it, it just seemed to be a free for all with everyone just sitting wherever they wanted.  The new security theater at the entrance was nice not having to stop and be quasi searched.  We also got the tasting passport and the wife and I used 2 each.  I am still not sure if its worth it or not but figured I would try it.  We will probably use the rest next time we are there.

Yea, I have never seen or heard of this either, and not really sure I see how it fits in with SDC

White Water Discussion / Re: What is the deal with WW?
« on: June 01, 2022, 07:16:48 PM »
If they do build a new water park, I wonder if it would be worth while for someone, HFE or somebody else, to keep the current WW operating?  I would think there would be enough traffic to keep 2 water parks open.

White Water Discussion / What is the deal with WW?

I caught something on Fakebook about this being the last year of WW and they bought some new property to relocate and call it dolly land or something to that effect?  Anybody heard anything about this?

73
Yea I think I will pass

74
I would be willing to bet the new ride has very little if anything in common with the old ride

Yes, it is simply security theater.  With the poor job the do of searching bags, I could get in any number of weapons if that was my goal.
