VisionLand bondholders call for foreclosure

If they somehow manage to open the gates by June, I'm there. I would just like to board the Rampage while there's still a chance (sigh)

They need to open that park back up very quickly. Nobody will make money if the guests can't spend it.

I seriously doubt it will happen. The problem is that for the last five years, the people who run the park have been saying "Let us open and we'll make tons of money." Well, the park opened, and because of it's location, size, cost and poor quality of service, few people went. I'd love to see it open, but I think the bondholders have had enough and are ready to get SOMETHING back on their investment...

Now if they'd keep the waterpark open with just one rollercoaster...:)

IF the park was managed correctly (advertising, employee training, etc.) the park would have had a chance to be successful. There's a reasonably large market and a reasonably large park. The park never should have come to this.

My two favorite coasters are named Superman.

The way their bond payments were set up, the park could not afford advertising, so attendance droped.

Move Rampage to another park and let the hammer drop.
