Hmmmmmm........... Dollywood opened the first B&M wing coaster and now I read about B&Ms first 4d coasters going to China and Spain in 2015.

Hmm that is a thought and we all know how SDC likes to be the first at things! Oh how my heart would sing if this were true. But I'd be happy with our own wing rider as well. ;)

Right, I was saying that Coca-Coloa owns Mr. Pibb, which is now called Pibb Xtra.

The use of 'too' implied Coke owned both. At least, to me. No big thing. Pepper sued coke over earlier names of Pipp.

A 4d B&m would look like a version of a wing rider.

LoL that I know. What I was saying is I would be happy even if it was a standard Wing Rider and not a 4D.  ;) But seriously this wouldn't surprise me at all if it happened!

Since the park is open today, I can go ahead and say what is happening.

There will be a new restroom complex built across from the horse race game just north of the decks for Rib House.

The addition to the OR area is some type of ornamentation.  The unveiling of the thing is said to be at the "World Premiere" of Outlaw Run event.

----

As far as 2015... it is going to be big.  The plan is to start a teaser campaign early again like they did for OR.  But don't expect to see anything for awhile.

This is on the SDC website:

Outlaw Run Grand Celebration
April 11 - 14, 2013
At Silver Dollar City, we believe in and support The Good Guys...our lawmen, our heroes!

 


As we celebrate the grand opening of The World's Most Daring Wood Coaster - Outlaw Run, we honor those who proudly serve and protect our communities with the dedication of a very special 30-foot monument and special events each day:

 

•Thursday & Friday - Premier of GAC Country Nights with a tribute to law enforcement each night at park closing, weather permitting.
 

•Saturday -Grand Celebration Opening Ceremony at 9am with our very own Sons of the Silver Dollar and special guest performers Roy Rogers, Jr., Dusty Rogers, The Haygoods and more. Plus, the dedication of the Outlaw Run monument to law enforcement.
 

•Sunday - Special Cowboy Church Service at High Noon.


I'm guessing that 2nd picture has to do with the 30 foot monument

I would totally go if World Fest was already going, but since it is not, I am opting to go to Worlds of Fun's Opening Weekend instead.
