I have to say that is a terrible idea. Doesn't even make sense...

So 1 large windmill powers only 10% of a Chiptole...how many would SFGAm need to power 10% of the park?

I know I shouldn't do this, it's only going to make things worse, alot worse, but I'm bored
http://www.chancemorgan.com/news/images ... _15_10.pdf You know with as few as 3 of these, you can power one flat ride, unless it's like Giant Drop or the flumes or something. So if SFGAm put in about 100-200 of these expensive and unsightly contraptions, they can power almost 10% of the park.

Paint. Ride itself needs a repaint. Trains need a complete repaint. They painted the fronts of the cars for 2011, but not the main bodies or the armrest frames. They should also replace any armrest , seat, or seatback that is damaged. The entrance sign also needs paint. Station still looks good from the 2010 repaint, but could be touched up in a few spots.

I'm with you 100%, but removing it would cost money, and now that they have the Southwest Amphitheater (which they don't use anyway) it will probably never see another show again.

Is the ampitheater in Southwest Territory seriously gone?
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

It's still there but It's used for C-List Performers singing their 19th best song. The rest is used for Special Events. Day 12 Participate in "Toys For Tots" in April/May where a $15 dollar toy gets you 1/2 Priced Admission Just don't do that in October!!! 10 Dollar admission on a Saturday during Fright Fest. Yeah, Good Idea.

Day 13 (Quite Possibly the Oddest Idea for this Advent Calendar) Offer A Blood Drive During Fright Fest in Exchange for Food Vouchers PS, Six Flags has done stuff like this (9/20/11) Six Flags America and the American Red Cross will host a blood drive on Saturday, October 1st at the park. All those who donate will get a free ticket to Fright Fest, which had it’s opening night that very same night. (9/30/11) Six Flags Great Adventure will team up with the Red Cross to hold the Fright Fest Blood Drive this Saturday (Oct 1). All donors will receive a free ticket into Fright Fest.

^Free ticket is for times when the park is dead and they want to move food/merch. Also the hopes of selling season passes for the following year.

I Forgot to post for #13 that it didn't have to be in October. Something like that could be any time of the year. I'd do it. I'd do it like 30 times. Give blood, Have a Soda or Fries. Repeat the next visit. It could be like a $5 dollar voucher valid on the day you give blood. Or however Six Flags does that stuff.
