What is Cedar Point Missing

Hey Brian, where'd you pick that up from? Last time I heard that was from an auto shop hoodie back in the 80's. ;)

And how about extending the skyride aaaalll the way to the back?

Sally dark rides, RollerSoakers....

Is D just trying to get on my good side? I thought he already knew I don't have one of those...;)

Speaking of Sally and song references, if Nasai were around, he might make a reference to "Sally, phwew! that girl!" ;)

Better hotels along Rt 250. Some of them even tell you to go other places.

Wow, do they have vampires there or something?

They need more bugs, more guests, an indoor ride themed to a trip to a big amusement park, more weird employee moments, more towering structures and lawn ornaments, Dorney's number of trees with Knott's berries, Valleyfair!'s proximity to a more amusing, smaller chain-owned indoor park, Worlds of Fun's sense of humor, and Michigan's Adventure's empty parking lot...

Er, I agree with the flats, medium wooden twister, and Sally dark ride. That would be perfection. :)

My wants are simple: a GCI dueiling woody and a floorless Beema. A Reverchon spinning mousey would be fun too. :-)

I never really comtemplated CP's need for more flats, although a haunted house/dark ride that wasn't themed for kids would be nice, and a Huss frisbee.

Oh yeah, a walkway across the lake. Great idea!

Oh, I forgot to say to beat Magic Mountain to the punch and one-up them by making a special theatre to play Rollercoaster continuously throughout the day... Actually, I just wanted everyone to know there was a price markdown on it this week from $19.98 to 14.98 (on sale even cheaper at Amazon, Best Buy, and most of your favorite DVD stores).

Oh my Michael Darling and janfrederick, that is where I stayed last year when I went to CP, that is too funny, we had to go to another hotel to use the pool because the one they had was out of commision, also the tv remote didn't work, other than that, it wasn't too bad of a place and it was very cheap, I think my buddy and I stayed there for a week for under 150 bucks.

Hey Brian, where'd you pick that up from?

You mean "natch"? I'm not sure. Unfortunately, my brain is fundamentally flypaper for random bits of verbiage. But, I wasn't the auto-shop type. I was the computer lab type. Your fingers don't get quite as dirty unless the keyboard is *really* foul.

I use 'natch all the time...maybe he got it from me?

mOOSH

The only thing I think CP is missing is.....Me. I've never been, but I will rectify that this year.

Well of course I am trying to get on your good side! But no really that is what I think that Cedar Point needs. Are you going to meet me at pat obrien's in march?

Duh, it needs the same thing PKI needs. Oh, and every other park.

A custom Maurer-Soehne spinning coaster. :)

That's my story and I'm stickin to it.


OMG I have a new sig!!!
You didn't like Lagoon's Spider, did you Joe? ;)

Folks let all say it together.

SALLY DARK RIDE.

I TOTALLY agree with a dark ride. CP needs sometype of dark ride BAD...let me say one that runs in the rain also ;)

I think they really need a VERY decent wooden one also GCI/Gravity Group/Intamin. Keep it medium/compact/lots of Laterals/airtime.

A HUGE HUGE pluse would be, as mentioned, electronic que signs. All these years, all that money CP/Cedar Fair spends and still they use the wooden cut out signs for times. I'm still amazed they haven't updated that system. But that probably goes with the whole give the employee a microphone deal.

They need something cool in the middle of Mean Streak. I don't know if peeps would find it but it would look cool ;)

I've personally have been waiting for something new back in Frontier town. The newest things have been the Swan Boats, and those are gone now. Or you could count Undertaker U but that's only open around Oct. The Ohio Peeps are started to loose interest back there. With a nice looking, bad rough wooden coaster, bumpy mine train, etc. But something flashy back there, make it go with Frontier town, and whala.

NEW NIGHT SHOW!!! Laser show is cool, but there has to be away to get away from the same old show feeling year after year. The overall park shows have improved with in the last 4 years though.

I'm still waiting for "WindBreaker" Cedar Point pants. (almost) EVERYONE wears these things! They would sell a tone of them if they just got rid of the sweatpants and made windbreaker pants (that's the small pet peave of mind).

As mentioned above, just bring in some non REALLY big thrill ride stuff and work on the family end to give an overall better family and thrill ride appeal.

Ahhh so many things but so little time...not to mention money :)

D....I might miss ya due to Solace...once I get a schedule worked out, I'll let ya know!

I'd love to see a Snoopy themed dark ride (the kid in me says it would be fun) and electronic que signs would be nice if there was also (as mentioned earlier) a series of them throughout the park for the really popular rides so that if you're by Wicked Twister, you could find out how long the estimated que time for MF or TTD is.
I think they should have a new night time show that features fireworks shooting off little pontoons out in the LAKE. Then the fireworks can circle the whole park -- oh now wait I'm getting to Disneyesque. ;)

Sounds good gator, let me know (either here or email me, my addy is on my webpage).
