Greased Lightnin' @ PGA?

I was trying to find a picture of Greased Lightnin'. To my surprise, it wasn't listed on the Paramount's Great America's official site. Wonder what that means? Could it be taken out? Anyone have a clue? http://www.pgathrills.com

He let the contents of the bottle do the thinking; can't shake the devil's hand and say you're only kidding.

Chris, if you can, join us July 8th at PGA for the 25th anniversary of this ride. There will be lots to enjoy, and we'll be honoring it for the years it was known as Tidal Wave (1978-1998). You know its a big deal when I come all the way from Ohio for it! :) Not only is it still there, but it is running well. Too bad its been sandwiched by other rides.

Ironic, July 8 is Anton's B-day.......(I should know)....;)
It's actually not doing so good because it is braked after the launch and going backwards into the station. If you've ridden Monte, you'll see the difference. To much braking and you barely go up the back spike. This coaster was poorly maintained for years. I'm just happy that it finally got some TLC this year.

Its no mistake that the celebration falls on Anton's B-day the park planned it that way. If you need more info about PGA check out www.greatamericanthrills.com. There is a good amount of pictures of all of PGAs attrations.

Yes I do work for the site www.greatamericanthrills.com. Thanx for asking!

....thinking they should invite a bunch of enthusiasts whose B-day is in July - or even ON July 8...;), and let us ride Anton's creation into the night!

Remember, if you can keep your hands up throughout on the backwards loop, you get another ride......

In that case, I'll pass my previous Tidal Wave record of 48 rides in one day! LOL.
