Knoebel's Whirlwind Update

Well, I, for one, have a Togo/Arrow/Veko gene. I love SLCs, and haven't met any of the 3 I just couldn't stand.

But, then, I'm weird.

"Weird" isn't the word I'd use for ya, Tek ;)

I got two words for Whirlwind..... SEE YA!

I need new to get a dna transplant for the elusive togo/arrow/vekoma gene cause i know i can't stand arrow and vekomas so i bet if i ever find a togo i will be in pain!

Watch the tram car please....

Since I don't understand what language the last 20 some posts were in, I'll change the subject...

Think they got the 550K they were asking for the WW?

I'd be willing to bet the selling price for WW ended up in the 350-400K range...hey, better than Drachen Fire or King Cobra, which had high asking prices and ended up as scrap...

DK knows his used ride market, no doubt about that...but I think the 550K was an "asking price", and that he was willing to *haggle*. ANYTHING is better than turning a useable coaster into scrap metal, or even worse, scrap lumber...and that's why Dick K will remain one of my personal *heroes of the industry*...:)

Yeah, Moosh, I would have also accepted Hot, Georgous, Beautiful, Handsom, Really Hot, and Really Really Hot.

YMMV;).

GWAR messed me up as a teen. They just played here in State College about a month ago, and I STAYED AWAY on purpose. "Mommies, I've been stealing your babies, I gag the brat and then maybe, I'll suck out his brains"... Desgusting, yet funny.

Thats where I saw them at the Crowbar. Cool place but it's way too small for national acts. They are one band I wanted to see for at least 10 years live. Well them and Slayer who I actually saw two days later too.

It was for their "Mock the Vote" tour. They killed Kerry, Bush, Arnold, Saddam, Bin Laden, Michael Jackson, Paris, and a slew of others too. I was bummed out because Gwar Woman, Sexicutioner, and Sleazy wern't there. Well Gwar Woman was there but she wasn't in costume she was selling their stuff.

Needless to say my white Gwar shirt is now a nice shade of pink.

And yes they did play "Have You Seen Me!" it went out to Lacey Peterson who they also brought out on stage and dismembered.

LOL!!! Now thats a show I'd love to see!

Anybody that can make fun of Lacey Peterson is A-OK with me.

Even if the flats do go in the spot once occupied by Whirlwind there's no reason a new coaster can't be built around them. See Mall of America ;)

Or Indiana Beach! Or Wildwood!

Coasters and Flats are very important and lets just wait until next year to speculate about a new coaster.

I wonder how much each of the two new rides will coust in tickets

Floridian

My guess for Sidewinder is $1.20 and for the Flying Tigers $.80
