General Silver Dollar City Talk / Waterfall
« on: January 02, 2020, 05:54:23 AM »
I was just wondering if the rumors about the Waterfall are true, they say that at one time you used to be able to walk behind the falls. Is this true? If is is true then why did they discontinue allowing guests to walk behind the falls. Is it possible they will ever reopen that area again?

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Opening Day at SDC
« on: March 13, 2019, 12:01:19 PM »
Light crowds so far. Time traveler was awesome as usual. Thunderation was rough as usual. Flooded mine got some love during the off season. Firefall has a new seat belt. Riverfront is so different. New pan mining site by the exit to the river playhouse. They took the old one out. The whole area is significantly changed. I’ll post pictures later.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / 2019 SDC Refill Tumbler
« on: October 31, 2018, 12:54:35 PM »
SDC just announced a 2019 Refill Tumbler for $49.99. With that purchase you get free refills all year long. Seems awful pricey. Thoughts?

Other Parks / Worlds of Fun Question
« on: September 24, 2018, 06:48:06 PM »
I have been to WOF several times this year and have noticed several things that I don't agree with. Its just two things in particular and they are smoking/vaping and drinking alcohol in the queue lines. To clarify, observed several people smoking and a lot of people vaping in the queue lines. Was standing in line for the Cornstalkers maze and had a large group behind me drinking beer. They had the larger cans of Bush Light. I know they sell alcohol in the park but didn't realize that you could carry it around with you. Several security and park employees seen the above mentioned behavior and ignored it, which lead me to believe its acceptable behavior. What are all your thoughts on this type of behavior?

Other Parks / Six Flag St Louis
« on: February 04, 2018, 09:13:45 PM »
Just seen that they are offering a "New" Gold Plus Pass Membership with a bunch of perks https://www.sixflags.com/stlouis/store/membership

I'm guessing if you already purchased a season pass with the upgrade to Gold Level that you cant get this Gold Plus card. Disappointing.

Also seen they are offering Batman Backwards. Sounds like that be a fun ride and I guess Highland Fling has been removed and The Boss has been shortened.

Other Parks / Question regarding other Parks
« on: January 04, 2018, 01:45:58 PM »
I'm looking at going to the following parks in 2018 and was wondering if anyone can tell me how many days it would take to enjoy each park.

Kings Island
Cedar Point
Six Flags over Great America
Worlds of Fun

At Cedar Point....where is the best place to stay. I was thinking just staying at Hotel Breakers at the park itself....to avoid parking and traffic headaches. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Just curious to hear everyone's thoughts about the new coaster. Your likes and dislikes. What you hope to see happen or would like to see happen or just general thoughts.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / 99 year lease
« on: August 07, 2017, 03:12:57 AM »
I know the story about Hugo Herschend purchasing a 99-year lease on the cave in 1950.  Is this "lease" still in place? If it is, it will expire in 2049. I was just curious to what happens if this lease is still legally binding and what happens in 2049 when it expires. I'm guessing the lease no longer exits but I don't really know. Hope somebody knows more because I'm just curious about it.

Other Parks / Six Flags Fiesta
« on: June 19, 2017, 02:07:15 AM »
Will be going to Six Flags over Texas in July and decided to take another 4 hour drive and go see Six Flags Fiesta. My question for those that have been to Fiesta, is this a one day visit or should we push it out for two days (will be going to SFOT for two days). Any tips or suggestions on what "MUST" BE DONE. Also, any suggestions on hotels. Thanks

Construction/Rumors / Lucky Silver Mine Restaurant at SDC
« on: May 16, 2017, 02:31:51 AM »
I read an article that stated that the Mine Restaurant at SDC has a few "unique" tables. The article states that there are certain tables that actually move up very slowly and one that moves down slowly. Anybody know if this is true and if they still have these tables today?

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Just some general questions
« on: February 18, 2017, 11:42:32 AM »
Why doesn't SDC have a "dining pass" offer or offer a sports bottle that you can have free refills?

Why do some theme parks charge for parking? I know Six Flags St Louis is $20.00 a car. Just doesn't make sense to charge for parking and then you still have to pay the admission price to get in.

Why cant more parks do what Holiday World does and offer free parking, free drinks?

Why the huge up-charge on bottle water and other food items?

I understand they need to make money but wouldn't they gain more attendance if the prices were all reasonable.

How do some of you feel about people who purchase and or have these flash pass/ trailblazers passes and are able to skip the lines? I admit that I purchased the SDC season trailblazer pass last year and loved it. However, some of the looks I got from people when I skipped the line was nerve racking. Just curious to hear some others thoughts on that.

Just wondering if anyone purchased these last year and if so, was it a good value.

Construction/Rumors / SDC Ozark Water Tree
« on: September 07, 2016, 04:09:12 PM »
Was wondering if anyone could provide some information on this tree that is located by the American Plunge. I am curious on who came up with this idea and some history behind it all. I also know that Dollywood also has a "water tree" that looks similar to the one at SDC. Thanks
