^Yes, I think that's what he's getting at.  ;)
We've seen this before at Wildfire, until they stopped allowing that a year or two ago; I never assumed to look for it on TNT I guess.

Anyway, back to the 09' discussion, is there any word on any new major shows/festival improvements like DW's getting? They've got to do something worth advertising.

The only thing I've heard is they have a few new performers for World-Fest, the highlight being the Zhejiang Chinese Acrobats.

The last times issue said a new show (not yet announced) would be in red gold heritage hall.

How much do you guys think they'll work on the splash battle this offseason since the slated opening is 2010?  :(

I'm curious.

I would imagine that if they already had it lined up to get the pumps installed that they would go ahead and do that -- spread the cost of the ride over two fiscal years instead of one sort of stuff.

^That makes sense. I hope they get a lot of work done on it so come spring we'll have a good idea of what is going on.

Anybody noticed that the tribute to the Great American Cowboy festival will be a Cowgirl tribute in 2009?

Lame PC move.  :P

Sounds like something someone higher up pushed through. I don't think it'll hit as well, assuming they're focusing mostly on the feminine side of ranching.

You don't think they'll do a nod to Anne Oakley?

Bring back the really old saloon show maybe? You know the one that was actually based on a historical character.... Would be cool.

I would love for them to bring in a Buffalo Bill's Wild West show -- it could even be set up as part of the Grand Expo.

^I'd love for them to add that to the Grand Expo as well, but not just for the festival. An outdoor stadium featuring showcase-style shows featuring random awesomeness from the Exposition would round out the area well, besides offering a unique show the entire family would enjoy.
