They've been getting a lot of rain in Georgia, causing a lot of flooding. Six deaths are attributed to it. That said, on FOX News (Fox and Friends) this a.m., they showed some video of the Six Flags park. The big wooden roller coaster was half under water. It was amazing. This video shows part of it, but it's not the shot that I saw on the news (can't find that one). http://www.necn.com/Boston/Nation/2009/09/22/Raw-Video-Flooding-at-Six/1253621222.html
Yes, that flooding is surreal.
GASM, Ninja, BTR and Mindbender are all under water.
It happens, it's not a "new" thing -- all of these rides have been flooded before and I'm sure they'll be flooded again sometime in the future.
