Well I noticed one thing looking at the operating hours. Opening day is April 29th this year. Also the park closes on October 29th. So we won't be seeing SFGAM open on Halloween like last year.
Also does anyone know more about the rumor about Triple Play being moved to Six Flags Over Texas?

2010 is going to be one to remember forever!!
(triple play part removed)...
And unless the park makes a last minute decision like last year I dont think anyone will be at SFGAm on Halloween except the maintence people putting the flats away. Last edited by [jonrev] on February 21st, 2006, 10:59 pm, edited 2 times in total.
Where did you hear that triple play was going somewhere? its a perfectly good flat ride........
Frank
I am glad that Triple Play isn't going anywhere.It is one of my favorite flats.
 Whizzer is the best roller coaster in MY WORLD!
Some people take roller coasters as rides,some as passions,I take them as life! Fright Fest Rocks!!!!
From what I heard SFAW's was damaged on the way there.
I did get that from ScreamScape so who knows anymore. But it's not as farfetched as Tidal Wave.. 
Seriously flats move like anything and can stripped from any park. SFGAm has a lot of flats, and SFOT (I'm guessing doesn't). Look at how many rides that have SFGAdv already. They had a huge flat package, but now they seem to leaving one by one. If I goes, I would be truly sad.

I am gonna laugh when you are proven wrong. No Triple Play for 2006, but it should be back for 2007. Last edited by greatamerica2003 on February 21st, 2006, 10:36 pm, edited 1 time in total.
YOU ARE A FAILURE AT LIFE!
This is beginning to look like October again......arguments everywhere......and I sense one right now. You can tell offseason is slowly coming to an end.
Triple Play will not be going anywhere for 06. Frank
We are only a little over half done bud, it gets really crazy in April. I also think it's completely possible that Triple Play would get moved. It's very secluded in the park so nobody really sees it anyways. Just because it got refurbed doesn't mean they can't move it. It would still be refurbed either way. Think about it, it saves SF money in the end. Logically I see no Triple Play next year. Top 5 wood-5-Goliath 4-Ravine Flyer II 3-Phoenix 2-Voyage 1-El Toro
Top 5 Steel- 5-Velocicoaster 4- Maverick 3- Fury 325 2-Steel Vengeance 1-X2 Coaster Count: 444
I have heard that Triple Play will actually be going to Texas for 2006 and That The Canada Park's Trokia will be used for spare parts. But no guess on asking Workers, Alot of them won't know until buy out. But can we say this is the start of RRP?
SF IS CLONING! AHHHHH!!!

Well I found out parts of it thave already been taken away, so I guess it maybe going. Frank
From what I hear it's gone already as SFAW's was in fact damaged in transit. Though a part I dont understand is it may return in 07 (not sure how or why, I'd assume they'd buy a used one, but it'd get really complicated in their reasoning, especailyl as to if we get tripple play back or a used or new one)
Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073
 
I sure hope this isn't true, but it does make sense. They promised Six Flags Over Texas park goers that they would be getting one for this year. If it was damaged along the way, than they have to take one from another park to make sure that guests aren't dissappointed like some were when Deja Vu didn't open until Fright Fest in 2001. Why not go with the version that was most recently refurbished and repainted. RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter
Fangs Up Cobra Style!!! Chitown's finest resident here!!!!!
and exactly why would it be SO IMPORTANT for SFOG to have a triple play, that they would remove a perfectly good one, in a park that people LOVE IT IN!!! Makes no sense what so ever
Trips Planned 2009: ?Unsure?
^First of all, it is for Six Flags Over Texas (if this does happen). When you advertise to the public that they will be receiving a new ride and it is damaged along the way, people get dissappointed. Look at what happened with Turbulence at Hersheypark last year. So, since the company already owns the ride at a number of different parks, why not move one to Texas so the park goers don't get upset. If you were picking a ride to move, wouldn't you pick the newest looking of the bunch? I'm just saying it makes sense, i'm not in support of it.

The folks at SFOT seem to think their "new" Troika is coming completely from LaRonde, not just parts. I guess we'll find out on March 4th when the park down there opens.
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.
I don't know if this means anything (it probably doesn't) but Triple Play is still on the "updated" sfgam website
Not everything in the Great America + Hurricane Harbor section of the Six Flags website has been updated. It still has last year's no smoking policy listed.
Okay guys... Here...
<img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b266/hazard4twc/2006_02_TriplePlay.jpg" alt="Image hosting by Photobucket"> That is a picture recently taken by a Screamscape member of Triple Play sitting in pieces. You can read it and see it at http://www.screamscape.com. So take that for what its worth. Thats also for everyone who says its 100% not going anywhere. 2010 is going to be one to remember forever!!
Correct me if I'm wrong but I beleive it is always taken apart every winter for storage! I would beleive it is going if it was on trucks.
Iggy--hopes it doesn't go anywhere! Waiting to fill this space with something stupid to say!
Just the Trains. They dont gut the whole Flat
SF IS CLONING! AHHHHH!!!
exactly, It must be from before, when they were refurbishing the ride. I don't think they would get rid of it to another park because it just fixed up here, and is popular with the kids.

I heard it will come back for year 31
