If it is indeed by eagle, I am amazed that they would add something to wiggles world with two other areas that, in my opinion, need it more.

^If it's going in the SWF spot (which I still doubt), that isn't a part of Wiggle's World.

I think the sitings were of possibly new wood going on Eagle or something to that extent. But, they could have changed their minds and Little Dipper will occupy the old SWF and GAR will circle around it.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

Or Great America raceway will be scrapped alotogether. I know Dipper is not very big at all but it would still be a VERY tight squeeze.

You guys do know that GAm also bought cars from Kiddieland for GAR at the auctions aswell. And I MAJORLY doubt that It is in SWF's spot, If it's true then we can sit safely, knowing that Demon isn't going anywhere.

Getting a picture of that area is a bit troubling. Especially with all this snow we keep getting. WHY WON'T THEY JUST TELL US! Comeon! The GP won't care! I wish I lived near by, I would get over there and sneak around. Who said that I can't cross where it says, "Closed for the Season"?

I'm guessing in a few weeks at No Coaster Con which I'll be at, they will answer all questions, seeing as Little Dipper has been officially announced by the park, they have nothing to hide.

Chang however I'm sure will be completely off limits with no comment.

^ :lol:

I am sure there are going to be tons of people that will try though. Remember in 08 when someone asked SFKK PR about S:TOP? The womens face froze up and they didn't know how to respond. They shouldn't have even been there anyway, all they had to present was a bowl slide.

And who could forgot the guy in the back with the purple shirt, jumping up and down with his hand raised, asking all the stupid questions :wink:

They will deny it's in storage, and will stop just short of denying that it isn't still standing at SFKK. They wouldn't announce Superman to us about 6 days before the official announcement back in 03. They did do a video tour of the construction site though wearing capes, though they could neither confirm nor deny that it'd be called Superman.

What if I said: "As seen online on the Six Flags Great America Forums, there are pictures of CHANG's support and pieces of the station. Can you confirm that Chang, or parts of Chang are in storage at Great America?"

That would put them in a tight corner.

^No it wouldn't.

They would probably just say "no comment" and move on.

^For Chang, they have to be quiet to save 2010 ticket sales for which ever park it goes to. People would put off 2010 trips if Chang comes in 2011.

Not really I mean would I pass up a trip to my local theme park about three times a season just because its new attraction does not debut till 2011? No. As long as I know it is happening I can rest easy knowing the park has not forgotten about us over-13 crowd.

Hello, this is the thread for the LITTLE DIPPER, not CHANG. Talk about CHANG in CHANG WATCH. Back to discussion.

So...any chances of a pic this week guys? Before the 2008 season I think someone made a video on site showing off the park during the winter months. While a bit unnecessary, I do wish we had one of those now...just for the fun of it.

Something tells me he saw the wood being replaced on Eagle. There is no way that the park has already gotten that much up of the ride. It's a Woodie. Remember?

Plus they still have a few days to get it out of melrose Park. Knowing them they will end up using those extra days. I honestly do not see it going near Eagle.
