Interesting trivia question...

What can Six Flags Great Adventure claim that no other Six Flags park can claim. (Only caveat, must be a major park that sports the name SF)?

I expect all of 6 guesses before someone gets it.

One thing? I can think of a few that no other SF park has:

1] It has a B&M speed coaster

2] It has a TOGO Heartline coaster that utilizes trains instead of individual cars.

3] It had a dark ride that burnt to the ground, killing a bunch of people.

4] It has a twin-tracked Premier launched coaster.

5] It has a Frisbee hidden behind a Bumpercar pavillion.

Shall I go on?

The only park with a B&M Batman, flyer, hyper, and floorless.

If you haven't rode Raging Bull in the back row you haven't lived. The feeling on that first drop cannot be explained in words!

No moosh, although 3 points for mentioning something so dreary (lots of deaths) on a Thursday. Moosh, it's not something that you have to have MASSIVE coaster knowledge to get. ;) Also, is Raging Bull NOT a speed coaster? *wink*

Buller, although that may be correct. The correct answer to the question has nothing to do with HOW many coasters GAdv has. So, 4 points for you. But no cherry flavored Push-Up frozen dessert that goes to the winner.

It's not all THAT hard.

Ok, since I work nights and I need someone to come up with this answer. Here's your HUGE giveaway hint. It's special for what it does NOT have.

Starts timer. *Ding!*

Does RB not count as a B&M Speed coaster? Or is "speed coaster" as opposed to "hyper-twister."


How 'bout the only park to have more than one Batman themed coaster?

Isn't "Marine" somewhere in New England??? ;)

And "World" is a place too right? So is "Mountain" if you think about it... ;)

Homey - I was always under the impression that Bull was a hypertwister, but if B&M classifies it as a speed coaster than I stand corrected.

A clue?

A decent woodie?

A safe, family-friendly environment?

Class?
