With SFo's recent purchase of (the rest of) Sea World Ohio, I wonder if CP's still sticking to their cards and not at least worrying.
Over 700 acres to play with and all the money in the amusement industry (in SFI) to play with- I doubt in three years that SFO won't at least be on the same plateu as CP.
Call it what you like, but the reality is that SFO is NOT messing around. 5 coasters in two years plus the final purchase of another park across the street- they could double their attendance figures next season depending upon how they handle the transition.
That would be roughly 3.4 million guests if doubled- RIGHT in the target area of CP.
