Since HFEC is a privately owned company, attendance figures and percentage breakdowns are not available to the general public. Sorry

Just guessing, but I'd say 70 percent from season passes is high.

Me too - I think that would be "way high".  I know a lot of people that visit the park, but hubs and I are the only two that have season passes.

I wondered if and when they would put restrooms up that way, since there are none in rivertown area, wilsons barn/Outlaw run....

Swoosh, Are there restrooms in the new Pizza Joint?

Nope.  The closest restrooms to the River Blast / Outlaw Run area are...
1. Playhouse
2. Near the "hill"
3. PowderKeg

Is this the same as the really big 2015 attraction?

Nope.  These are additions for this year.

The "OR addition" is not a ride.  It is something they've added to the area.

Tell me its a bathroom.
I have talked about the lack of restrooms for some time.
T.M.I Alert:   I take medication that sometimes makes me react like I have just consumed 3 pots of coffee, and this goes on for a while.
I can tell you that the bathrooms in SDC could be closer.  And the new area is just way to far from the other restrooms for folks with "needs". Couple that with standing in line for a few hours whipping yourself upside down quickly pulling some g's and we really have a issue. 
I thought with the drop in grade from the opera house to the OR area they may do another circular bridge.  That would give use to the restrooms that are located on the hind end of PowderKeg. But maybe that is more costly than busting up the pavement all the way out to Tom and Hucks where the sewer line is located.

Swoosh said "Two new developments"

lets get our minds out of the toilet and think what the other thing could be! lol  ;D

Dr. Pepper? I love Dr. Pepper, however I really love Mr. Pibb, and SDC is one of the very few places I can still find it. I hope it is not replaced. Here in Central Arkansas, no one has even heard of Mr. Pibb hardly; it is owned by Coca Cola too.
You have a great past just ahead of you.

Coca-cola does not own Dr. Pepper. It depends on where you are on who gets to distribute it. Some places it's Coke, Pepsi's outfit has it in others and other's have their own stand alone distributor of Dr Pepper. Mr. Pibb is a fill in for Coke in places it doesn't have it. I'm from Northeast Arkansas. Dr. Pepper was based out of Paragould and Coke out of Jonesboro peddled Pibb instead.

Right, I was saying that Coca-Coloa owns Mr. Pibb, which is now called Pibb Xtra.
