Demon actually had more than a million riders last year so just because the lines for it always seem to be on the shorter side its still very popular.
However I do agree that if they take out Whizzer it will be for safety issues and not monetary reasons. Its a signature ride for the park, and a family favorite.
Remember, there's nothing but air beneath the chair.
if I'm not mistaken, BB was empty on some summer days. If it has such a high capacity, why doesn't it reach 1 million riders? It's because no body wants another water ride, that goes at 2mph.
I actually liked BB. One day I rode it about 5 times just because I had some much fun spraying people. And each time you ride it you find more hidden stuff. BTW, there is a way to spray the Op on the control panel before you dispatch
What are they going to say? "we are kicking you off this ride because you got me wet when there are no rules saying you can't and because the device that is supposed to prevent this doesn't work"?
^ There is no special way to do it. It all depends on which boat/gun you get. All the guns are supposed to be disabled in the station, but near the end of the season, many of the guns started not shutting off.
Also, instead of spinning the handle. If you hit it down really hard you can get a water to go pretty far. I got a couple of people watching around the ride that way.
