It's a joke about how Dole Whip is really popular with those Disney Adults at Disney World

Goliath and Raging Bull now have themed background music playing throughout the queue/station as of today so that’s nice to see! Also Superman’s music is back working again!

I wonder if we will see more music at other rides soon. Mainly just wish they’d bring back maxx forces music/effects.

This pov of Raging Bull from Six Flags has themed music. Is this the soundtrack that's playing?

Just want to say I’m thoroughly impressed with the current groundskeeper/landscaping work the park is doing this year. Just look at the Eagle Entrance:

This time last year most of the flowers were dead and withering in County Fair (yes I have pictures as well.) I saw people actively planting near the entrance and in the picnic groves. So I got to give the park credit this year for sure.

Well there is a ceremony there today at 3pm so of course they want that area to look nice. The plaque is there ready to be unveiled!

Listened to my video (the best i could because i talked over alot of it :( ) in comparison to Six Flags' pov and no it's not, the video has a bit of techno, while the one rn in the station is a bit more intimidating/dramatic
