Just got home from day two of the ACE SDC Event going on right now. First of all Outlaw Run is amazing beyond expectation! Also I spoke with Pete Herschend (yes he showed up it was cool) and he told me that us coaster enthusiasts should keep our eyes open for 2015 because they are gonna make us happy again!

SDC Bring it on!

Told you so.

Great to hear about Pete basically confirming another coaster. I've unlocked/stickied the 2015 thread since we might as well start discussing it.

Anyone have a more detailed account of what is going on with the mechanical issues of Outlaw Run? I hear it still breaks down just about every day.

It broke down for about 30 mins while I was in line today because a restraint was stuck closed. I felt sorry for the poor kid stuck in the seat. Either way I did ask one of the ride ops if this has happened before and she said not to her knowledge. But either way they got it fixed quick and brought in a performer to lead us in songs and they told a few fun but corny jokes while we waited. SDC is always a class act!

yea, they did that last week when it broke down.. The ride controller started telling very corny jokes.....But he ran out of jokes eventually... LOL... I think as often as it breaks down he should have a Joke Book.... (A VERY BIG BOOK)....

Some sad news has come down the pipeline.
It appears that Big Jack's will not open at all this season and it may be gone for good.

Junior · May 10, 2013, 08:31:00 PM

Sad news. Another "classic" gone? Been there since at least 1969-70. Any reason given for the change? (Jack and Mary's, as it was called during my time on park, was one of the places I worked.)

NO!!!! I haven't eaten there in quite awhile, but it was on my list this year.

sanddunerider · May 11, 2013, 07:54:56 AM

After they took out the Philly Sandwhiches I ate their once... Havent been back since, a that was 2 seasons ago.

I Just could not get into the concept of cold pre made sand which..?? i can keep that in my cooler in the car..

Years ago when big, fresh sandwiches were popular at theme parks, Jacks was THE PLACE to go! If they would just revamp it, I think it would become popular again, but Sanddune is right. Who goes to SDC for a pre-made sandwich?

Some confusion here...I loved their Phillies, and that's where I got them last year. Also, they're not pre-made, as in days before. They might make a few extra ahead of time of what's popular, to keep the wait time down. Every one I ordered,I watched them make...

sanddunerider · May 11, 2013, 08:28:35 PM

sorry tinmann, i know you work there, but will have to disagree with you.. they moved the phillies down dockside grill. across from riverfront theatre last year,(maybe) i thought it had been 2 years..

Pulled the grills and fryers out of the building (jacks) (i thought)... cold food only..

Maybe it was just last year they did this?... sure seemed longer than that..

I love the phillies!

Swoosh · May 11, 2013, 09:28:46 PM

Jack's was all pre-made last year.
