Put on your thinking caps: new HW event name?

Just when I though I couldn't be beat.

The Boogyman strikes!

Oh well, All are welcome to use my three ideas. Im no Bogart.

Ultimately it's the park that decides which or what it will name a park event and they are more than welcome to mine

Chuck, who still thinks Moosh's LoCoSuMo is still one of the best to come from this crowd.

Hooray For Holi-Wood gets my vote.

But not to be lazy, I'll throw out a few and try to give Bogey a run for his money with. . .

Planksgiving (come on -- you know you like it -- wood planks + giving = come on now, you actually love it at this point. Just say it a few times. Best. One. Word. Coaster. Event. Name. Ever.)

Paula's Planksgiving Feast

Happy Planksgiving

Planksgiving Pilgrimige

Made In Voygage

Reasons to be Crateful

Fantastic Voyage

Planksgiving (just had to sneak that in there again).

Now, would Holiwood be considered a pun?

Tek, according to my trusty dictionary, a pun is "A play on words, sometimes on different senses of the same word and sometimes on the similar sense or sound of different words."

So yes, "Hooray for Holi-wood" IMHO would be considered a pun.

This is a weak one:

Backwoods Banzai Bonanza? (BBB)

I still like the Holi-Wood better. *** Edited 8/1/2005 1:12:27 PM UTC by tambo***

How about:

Holiday World's Fall Coaster Classic

I don't know... Doesn't look so good on paper but sounds better when you say it.

Edit:

Family Coaster Classic

Kinda limits the park to when they can hold the event though.

how about The Hallowed Pilgrimage... or The Hallowed Voyage?

kinda of trying to get all 3 coasters involved there.

Don't need to keep it Fall, I just used it as an example.

Spring Coaster Classic
Summer Coaster Classic
Autumn Coaster classic
Fall Coaster Classic
May Coaster Classic
July Coaster Classic
October Coaster Classic

or you can stick with my alternate (Holiday World's Family Coaster Classic) since Holiday World continues their focus on the family for 2006. As it was pointed out in the other thread, it not just enthusiast that attend these events, it's families (spouses, sons, daughters and I bet a few grandparents show up at Camp Rudolph with an RV or two) that come as well.

I'm pretty certain "Coaster Classic" is used already.

Edit - Yep...Carolina Coaster Classic.

Oh well... Such my life.. I usually hear something I like stick it in my mind and it eventually pops back out after already being used. At one point and time I Was going to start a computer consulting company called Microsoft. Well, I'm not Bill Gates so needless to say I need to come up with another name. :(

Hurray for Holi-wood gets my vote. Can we put some of those really big letters up in the parking lot on the day of the event?

How about combining a few of the current suggestions:

Holi-wood Coaster Pilgrimage

Continuing with a movie theme you get the following credits:

Holiday World & Splashin' Safari present

a Koch Family production

The Raven

The Legend

in

Holi-wood Coaster Pilgrimage

introducing The Voyage Roller Coaster

also starring Bahari River, Zinga, Zoombabwe

etc. *** Edited 8/2/2005 10:36:25 PM UTC by Alan T.***

How about something short and to the point. MoonLESS Madness (and you could even add, The Voyage for 2006 to celebrate its first year....). Of course, you'd call it M&M? or double M or heaven forbid BY ITS NAME?

I do like the Pilgrimage, but you know how we like those dark (coaster) rides!

Here is the best one yet (in our humble opinion)

Drum roll please.....................

the "Holi-WOOD planksgiving day pilgrimage" or HPDP for short!

Don't think I've seen this name...RollerCopia. A play off of cornucopia.

I really like anything with Pilgramage, because for many of us it IS a pilgramage. We are all coming out from many different states to ride the greatest wooden coasters in the best park in the world.

Which is why I decided on the name "The Pilgrimage" mere minutes aftyer the announcement....wonder if I was the first to use that moniker.....and what would I win... ;)

Free airtime at HW! With total tunnel-age...

gator, tips hat to "The Reverend"...

I really like the Holiwood name, but maybe we can improve on the hooray for... part. I think Holiwood is great by itself.

Maybe....
HoliWood Night(s)
HoliWood Weekend (if it grows into a 2-day event)
HoliWood Ho-Down
Holiday World's Holiwood Hurrah
HoliWood Night Ride *** Edited 8/7/2005 7:39:30 AM UTC by Acoustic Viscosity***

George, for some reason (and I've been getting this more and more) not all of my post posted. There was most definitly a winkey after that sentence.

Oh, and Um:

Holiwood hAIRraiser.
