Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Oh. Thats why it was called Plymouth Place. I only knew it was called that, but not why.

I have park maps from 1991-2005, except 1997. I didn't attend Great America that year

Wow. It's amazing to think of all the coasters we've gotten since then.

Trust me it was the hottest thing that year. The line was 1 hour and 30 min long if not longer.

well, for maps, I have one from just about every year the park has been open, plus one from 1975 advertising the park opening soon.
And for a bunch of posts up, the seats on Giant Drop were never pink. Those pics are from another Giant Drop somewhere else.

The ad is pretty corny. They could have been a little more creative than "Please keep all hands and arms inside the vehicle until the ride comes to a complete stop." What, do I have like three hands or something? Why not say both hands? And if I keep my hands in, how do my arms stay out? By my elbow?
Okay, I swear I have OCD sometimes.

^^why would they use a pic of a drop ride from a competing park when they owned at least 1 at that point (I think)

could be a stock photo provided by Intamin.
I believe that pic might be the Giant Drop from Jerudong Park Playground.

^You're probably right but that looks a little more red than brown.

I'll try to scan it in tonight and put it up on my webshots account, if I can remember what my name is on that
luckily it's only a trifold brochure and should scan in it's entirety.
