^ Nope. Definitely not. All thats new in 2008 at Bull is the paint and the no loose items policy.

^ The snow will definitely set Raging Bull back atleast a few days. However, I don't see the snow having much of an impact on Deja Vu or The Dark Knight.

A lot of coasters getting painted this year because a new partnership with a painting company including RB

I drove by the park today and I'll agree in saying that those pictures of Raging Bull really don't do it ANY justice whatsoever. Portions of the ride look so shiny and new!

It's good that the ride is getting a nice new coat of paint. If it looks as good as people say it is, I'm excited to see it!

The Baynum Painting contract has been in place since last year. Rides get painted when they need it.
Why do we fall, Master Bruce?
So we can learn to pick ourselves up.

The pictures surely don't do justice, as others have said. It will look amazing when it is done.

I'll get the rest of my pictures on the photo gallery later.
