But if the park is at any level of stupid to even TOUCH that Carousel(except for maintenance of course)...


The first tease rarely tells you much of anything. If they WERE doing anything to the Carousel (and I'm sure they're not), no way would they include it in the tease of the tease.

Fun with misleading clues.

"Wont ____ until Pigs can fly"
-Flying Coaster
--Superman
---They are removing Superman

He is wearing a blue shirt
-Blue
--Shockwave and Dejavu were blue and now defunt
---Blue man group
----American Eagle Blue
-----American Eagle will be removed or receive topper track

His hands are open
-Open for the season
--Open longer for the season
---They will open again early April

But really, I'm sure this doesn't mean anything.

In the survey it mentioned a digital ride where they take povs of the rides and people who may not want to ride them or can't ride them would watch it. Possible in the pictorium? This seems pretty likely given the camera.

...or there's just a camera because they were filming a video to be released Monday.

Flying Pig
Erm, pigs on the wing? Come on, now.

Blue shirt
That's his f*cking uniform.

His hands are open
He's having fun on a ride?

Well I guess we will find out on Monday. I think my theory makes sense based on the future attraction survey.

I'm glad they're teasing, just keep in mind that the first teases usually don't really mean anything, even in retrospect. For example, what could anybody have possibly figured out from this first teaser last year? http://youtu.be/gSCm6QM5dlY

Maybe they're finally connecting County Fair to Yankee Harbor...

That would be nice, but I would rather see Home Town Square connect to Yankee Harbor.

Can anyone read his name make out the pins or the wording on his lanyard? Just throwing this out there but what if the Sports Bar becomes a Famous Daves? The Pig is Dave's mascot and the lanyard looks like it might be from SWT. but the path thing throws me I really hope no petting zoo that would suck.

I really really really hope that everybody is joking. If any of these posts are serious, I'm worried about whoever posted it.

Can't make name out. But the lanyard is for Goliath.

One thing to remember about this stuff is that even if they were going to do something like change a resturaunt or add a new path, there's no chance that is ever going go be the big thing they promote that year. When you come up with an idea of what you think they're teasing, ask yourself if you could see the thing being the focus of a commercial. If not, it's probably not right.

Yeah..I'm just gonna wait until we see the teaser to start looking for clues. And remember, not everything means something. They said last year that people were looking way deeper into the Goliath teasers than they needed to and finding "clues" out of things that weren't (how many people swore they saw stuff in the rocks?!). Especially for a year that won't be a massive addition, I don't think that every little detail will end up being relevant.

For the last and only time, they are NOT removing Superman! I told you guys at the beginning of the year I asked guest relations and they ensured me that Superman will not be removed.

#1, it was a joke. #2, If they were removing Superman, they wouldn't have told random guest relations employees about it.

Chill out man. The statement didn't even make sense, so you could tell it was a joke. Would you really believe that if you saw a pig from the carousel flying in a picture that said #GreatAmerica2015, it means Superman is being removed because its a flying coaster? :roll:

July 2013 I went into guest relations and asked about the secret unannounced plans for 2014. They took me aside and told me that it would be an RMC coaster with a 180 foot 85 degree first drop, 2 inversions, top speed of 72 mph and a ride capacity of 1,000 guests per hour. One employee thought that the short 1:45 minute ride time would disappoint guests, while the other employee thought it would be just long enough to keep people coming back. Most surprising to me, they also predicted that harsh winter conditions would delay its opening by one month, and that the lift hill design would undergo revision.

Sometimes you just need to know the right guest relations employees to talk to :o

The flying pig reminds me of Pink Floyd, which makes me hope we have a psychedelia-themed Scenic Railway dark ride in the pictorium. Because #logic
