Actually those are just the Time Warner OTSR's after the Accident on Lightnin Loops at SFGAdv, Time Warner had those hoops put on all the Arrow OTSR's tehy owned, along with painting the OTSR's that bright orange. You can find those at all the "Original" SF parks, that were owned by Time Warner.
They were put on cause on Lightin Loops someone ran onto the train after it had been checked and they sat in the seat, on top of the Closed OTSR, and the fell to their death, so shortly there after Time Warner mandated those Huge Loops and bright colors so it's obvious if someone is on top of and not under the Restraint.

^ I didn't know that. I knew that corkscrew and TOTC opened the same year, so I thought that it would not be a new model issue. Thank you for telling me.
I was at night last Friday. I give you an update tonight. "I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
Lights were working fine today.
SPECIAL REPORT
DEMON'S LIGHT SITUATION 2004 SFGAMWORLD.COMs continuing coverage of the lights out in Demon's 2nd tunnel. Gurnee-Ill. July 23rd 2004. Unconfirmed reports indicate that the lights are back on in the second tunnel, No word yet if the cold air blast is working yet or not. More coverage on Sunday. This has been a SFGAMWORLD.COM NEWS Special Report. ~~We now return to regularly scheduled thread~~ 
Are you making fun of the situation Galvan? The lights and sound effects in the tunnel add to the ride experience. This site is to talk about the park and the Demon tunnel is part of the park. Don't make fun of people caring about it.
Yes, the lights and blowers in the tunel are working. However, the lights by the loops are still off.
They fixed the Triple red lights that were out last week. Gosh, that ride was packed at night. I guess that's my favorite night ride. Red rules!!! I just wish I could have went on it more than once today at night. It's trivial, but a set of the Orbit lights are out. "I've been staring at the world, waiting. All the trouble and all the pain we're facing. Too much light to be livin' in the dark. Why waste time? We only got one life. Together we can be the CHANGE. So go and let your heart burn bright"
LoL, can you take a joke? It's about a bunch of lights on a ride...settle down. Top 5 wood-5-Goliath 4-Ravine Flyer II 3-Phoenix 2-Voyage 1-El Toro
Top 5 Steel- 5-Velocicoaster 4- Maverick 3- Fury 325 2-Steel Vengeance 1-X2 Coaster Count: 444
It's called forgetting to edit my post and add a smily face with the letters jk.  But it still wasn't funny.
Yeah, the other day Triple Play's lights were messed up too!
Actually...they really were lol.
He has to try to be funny although he's the one that made the topic about a ride layout only being at GAm although it's at another Great America thats the same thing with different trains.
Does anyone know about what used to be on a small concrete slab by the lift hill in the back? There is a door near it that says "THE DEMON". I was wondering if this was old theming.
The door leads into the room where the lift motors and stuff are.
Also if you notice the queue has 3 layers, now it's just landscaping but it used to have queue houses there, now it only has 1 (it only needs 1).
Do you guys know how Demon was when it first opened? Like how was it themed and stuff like that. Did it change at all. I know on the sign that says Demon used to look different and it had like the demons eyes with blood puddle but its all flowers now.
And what were you talking about the queve line that used to be where is that at now. Deactivated for not following Forum Rules
Well, I'm sure that others know more about the theming than me, but I know the following things:
-Waterfall by the corkscrew was always red. -Line used to feature radio broadcast about how the Demon was attacking the world (something like this) -Song that you hear in first tunnel used to be played all the time.
I saw this skeleton cut-out in purple right before the train gets to the station. It was seen while going through the que. Does anyone know about this?

The infamous caged Demon under the sign. I believe there was fog in the tunnels?
They're the same thing.
If you noticed, in the line after you go under the lift theres 3 layers of land. There is a queue house on the top one, the other 2 used to be queue houses but are un needed now and were removed for landscaping.
Does anybody else know anyother things. AND WHY DID THEY TAKE THAT OFF THAT ATRACKTED MORE PEOPLE.

Religious groups didn't like it so the theming was toned down.
I know why it was torn down I want to know what was their when if first was name Demon. Because I was not born then you know. Deactivated for not following Forum Rules
^ If you knew why they took it down, why did you ask?
Please try to use proper spelling and grammar also. It is becoming difficult to read.

Neither was I.
You probably have seen this before like so many other people, but if not look at this website.
