They have, it's just on the main Six Flags account instead of the park specific one.

Just wondering, but where was it confirmed that Six Flags is moving the SWT Sign over by the bathrooms?

Great America does have a trailer up besides you can YouTube the ones that opened this year. And comparing a dark ride to coaster theming is an apples oranges comparison.

During the media event on Thursday Hank confirmed it. Marcus Leshock from WGN talked about it in his live report from the park.

And who cares that it's a clone. The whole clone complaint I've never understood. Clones let more people in more areas enjoy the same ride without extra travel. Batman has been cloned a ton and should it's a great ride.

Thanks both of you.

Wow, I didn't know that they're actually giving the ride it's own plaza. Cool!

I pass by the Eagle entrance from school every day, and I can't see if there's a foundation or anything, but wood for the walls is on site.

Can someone find out if the ride is going to be part of County Fair, or if it is going to be a whole new DC Plaza area.

I think it said some where that the ride would get it's own plaza. I'm not 100% sure.

I think the problem is that there really isn't a standard definition of a "plaza". I'm sure it'll just be the rise with a little theming and maybe a related store. I really wouldn't get your hopes up about some great new themed area.

Hi, first time poster here, I saw the announcement in the board that we are getting a Justice League dark ride. I'm predicting that in 2017 the old Ragin' Cajun spot will be filled up by a Larson Super Loop, and 2018 we will be seeing a custom coaster.

I also happened to notice that we are running out of space, but I think they should have bought land for Goliath to be builder.

So, do any of you have any ideas for 2017?

I'm pretty sure we own all of the land within the spaces of those roads

It's most likely just going to be part of the county fair.

There are orange stick markers in the ground last time I checked the site. Other than that, completely flat.

A metal shipping crate(alike the ones behind the Hometown Ladder Climb and 3-pt. Challenge) is on the Eagle entrance road. I have no pictures, but I take a bus past GAm every day to and fro school.

The orange stick markers are most likely surveyors marks ( could be for building location, utilities, etc) box is a conex box used on construction sites for storing materials & tools.

^I wouldn't be too surprised. It is up to Advocate Medical, so I'd just assume that they'd keep the tradition.
