Interesting... You would think it would be coaster related since Wildfire was featured in the video. Maybe they are still doing it in 2017 ;D

I wonder why they end the video by just showing all the trees past WF. This is way out there, but what if is is some new resort or moving White Water like most people would want to see?

Hasn't Swoosh said that there are three projects? They could be coaster, new entrance, and whatever this is.

They are probably making this announcement sound like it will be a lot bigger than it actually will be, but they've posted about it twice in Facebook in the last six hours. At least we only have to wait three days to figure out what this is.

Hmmm I get the feeling this is about Summer Fireworks

Yep, something like that would definitely fit into the category "bigger than it actually will be" :-\

I am not getting worked up over it being coaster related. lol They usually do those sorts of announcements in late August or September.

Yeah, rewatching the video really makes it sound like its a one day fireworks display on July 4 that we can watch online.

I don't think has to do with fireworks. The still image of the video before you play seems to point at how high something will be with the Oooohhhhh expression to boot. Also note the footage of being above the player on Wildfire, about what the height of the basketball on the finger tip still is.

But why would they be doing this already?

I didn't notice all the basketball spinning until I just watched the video for about the fifth time after you guys pointed it out. So maybe this is coaster related.

Don't get your hopes up. I would expect something along the lines of a give-away, fireworks show, or some sort of big promotion that involves the Globetrotters.

I would be very surprised if this has anything to do with a new ride.

My hopes aren't up yet, it's seems too early in the season to be coaster related. This probably shouldn't even be in the 2018 thread.

Who knows the reliability of this, but someone commented on Facebook, "What time?", and the response was, "Just talked to publicity and they said at midnight on the fourth."

If that's true, it probably wouldn't be fireworks.

No way SDC does a live press conference at midnight! Branson is asleep by 9!
