Iron Wolf Debut Commercial

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby Galvan on September 9th, 2007, 10:45 pm
Does anyone have the Commercial for the Debut of Iron Wolf?
I remember the ad somewhat, It was a train load of people riding the ride, wearing Black clothes and sunglasses, it was pretty interesting.

I have tried youtube, and its not there as well.

If anyone would have it, it would either be Coasterchild (he's posted a few old commercials), or the YouTube member "fuzzymemories". Those are the only 2 I can think of that may have it.

I was just watching some old sfgam commercial on youtube, and though their old saying "Go hand in hand in Great America". Commercials are so cheesy, like the AE one.

^Well I think Marriotts was geared to the "happy young couples" group. Because I do agree that at that time, the park would be a great place for a date.

^It still is if you don't mind lots of people and if you're not cheap. Indiana Beach is mine and my girlfriend's date preference though :wink:

The AE commercial is especially cheesy. "Do you want to ride it again?" "I will if you hold my hand..."

I vaguely remember the IW opening year commercials and I remember they ended with "If you think you can take it, Stand Up!".

Damn I'm getting old :)

Also I think I'd choose IB as a date park over SFGAm if only to save $$, and probably have a better day :)

Ive been youtubing some more videos and found some interesting
commercials, http://youtube.com/watch?v=DKKqxYMNgTw

This shows you more cheesy-ness, The Edge, Z-Force (RIP), and Shockwave.

You can find those exact videos plus more at coaster fanatics but I believe you need to be a member to view them. There's many from SFGAm, MGAm, and other older SF parks! Scroll down to see them or there may be more on the other pages too. I believe most or all of them are by Coasterdad. View here....

Note: May need to be a CF member to view them.

The Edge is one that I actually found not as cheesy.

Although it isn't the debut commercial, this is about as close as you're going to get. It's a news broadcast from Iron Wolf's first year of operation.
