Worlds of Fun Semi-Announces '05 plans!

Yes, that was pretty much the jest of it. From the tone of your post above it sounded like you were a little confused, but now I realize you were just playing around.

-D

Smilies don't do tone of voice justice. :) :) :)... one more :)

Tony Mamba is not even close to Zinger lot. Have you been there? It is located past the train tracks, past Nile then into part of OOF parking lot and there it is.

Hey Swoosh mind giving any hints?

If I had to wager a guess, I'd say take a look at what almost every other Cedar Fair park has (only exception is MiA) and go from there.

Hint: Knott's is constructing one at this very moment. :)

Joe "again, that's just my guess!" C.

**Danny looks for his B&M invert at Valleyfair!**

+Danny, still looking... ;)

Who said anything about B&M, silly?

**goes back and reads previous statement about what ever other Cedar Fair park has minus MiA)**

Yep, my original point still stands! :P

jc

Awww, but I still want a B&M invert at VF! and WOF... :(

I knew you were talking about general inverts right when I was writing that, but I still felt the need for you to dig up a B&M in Minnesota for me. I know you can do it. ;)

+Danny, silly 'n high

It's quite obvious that Mamba in no way sits on any of Zinger's lot, but what's the deal with Spinning Dragons? I haven't made it down to KC yet this year (I will before the end of the season), but it was my understanding that Spinning Dragons sits south of the Express' station and final brake run. Does any of SD extend north of OE's station (which is still there, right?) and/or the OE's brake run (which isn't there anymore...right?)??? I know SD took over the dolphin pool which is a fountain now, but my understanding was that none of OE's lot had been used.

As for what will "take the place" of Orient Express, I have been hoping for a B&M invert since that sad day last fall, but it sounds like that will be going in across the road. I say put the Invert in OE's lot and save the grassy spot for that long-over-due second woodie that was talked about in the past. :-)

Looking forward to WOF seeing better days again.

I reported earlier this year that B&M was going to build a coaster at WoF and everyone laughed at me.

It's ok. People laughed at me when I said my favorite thing at CP was Snoopy on Ice. ;)

+Danny

You know, I saw that show for the second time in three years a few weeks ago---it is far and away the best show at CP. Not surprising, as it was produced by the folks who did Knott's ice show, and not in house.

Honestly, I don't get the "CP has great shows" crowd. They have a dive show with good diving and horrible jokes, and three isomorphic musical review shows with slightly different themes. Doesn't compare to perhaps a half-dozen other parks, show-wise, and that's only among the few that I've been to. The Halloweekends stuff is better, but the summer offerings (except for SoI) are awfully "meh".

Matt you are correct about SD and what is left of Express. Part of SD does set were the entrance to Express was.

It really is an enjoyable show that I try to see when I'm up there with family. I have a hard time bringing myself to ask to see it when I'm with friends though, so I just stand back and stare at the theatre wishing I was in there once again... I get over it. ;)

The rest of CP's shows that I've seen are very ho-hum. Not bad, but definitely nothing I'd right home about. So I'd agree. I haven't seen the dive show, but I'll have to make a point to next season unless it has a surprise showing during CoasterMania- an event that's more about seeing and being with my friends anyways.

You're still here?

Now wait, lets get the story straight. We didn't laugh at you because you said B&M was going to WoF.

We laughed at you because of your (failed) attempt at attention whoring. Need I provide a link to the thread(in which, btw, you said you were leaving. Hey, thats more of your credibility down the drain...).

What the heck, I'll give you the link to the 4 page post that shows that it wasn't us laughing at what you knew, but how you acted anyway.

Personally, I have often thought that the land west (I think it's west) of the ferris wheel along the frontage road would be ideal for an out and back type of coaster of any variety.

Is the location of the 'village' to the south of Mamba???

An addition of anything major is really needed at WOF. I would really like to see WOF become more of a major park in the CF chain - theory being Knotts in the West, CP in the East, and WOF in the Midwest. No offense to VF by any means, but, the weather in KC provides for a longer season.

Oh Well I'm not going to argue anymore because I have no soild proof to back anything i say but I have been there atleast once if not more every summer for 10 years ( Since I was 10 )
and I Love the park regardless where the rides exact locations are.
Looking forward to an awesome expansion
I wouldn't mind seeing another looping coaster go in but I also wouldn't mind a new woodie

I'm hoping for either a inverted or rocket coaster. Either would be awesome!!
