Since SF Great Adventure is getting a Top Thrill Dragster type roller coaster and we are going to be getting Hurricane Harbor, which would you perfer.
A new coaster or a water park.
I'd take the waterpark now, it will help alot more to invest in this waterpark, bringing in more money, for a better coaster. Plus, I'd rather wait for the coaster technology to improve.
Id also say Waterpark. It's going to bring attendence up for sure, not only that but our park is one of the few major parks that didn't have a waterpark. It's something SFGAm has been missing for awhile now, and are finally getting.
I would also vote that the water park is the much better option. It will provide more for families to do which will help the park financially and when it is warm it will help(hopefully, if priced intelligently)make the lines shorter for those who will be riding rides or going to the shows. Six Flags problems as a company isnt a lack of rides it is the guest experience once they are in the park, though luckily we seem to be the best run park of the chain and dont have all of the problems that effect other SF parks.
I doubt there's any room but in the future we could get a coaster like Kingda Ka, if Gurnee gives the park permission to exceed 298 feet. I'd remove Daredevil Dive but I don't think that'll be enough.
R.I.P. Splashwater Falls and Space Shuttle America. Deja Vu, enjoy Idaho.
Hear ye, hear ye: "After 45 years, Six Flags has stopped smoking."
While Gurnee and SFGAm have a great relationship and more times than not, the park gets what they want, I seriously doubt the village would entertain a coaster the size of Kingda Ka.
If SFGAm wants a rocket in the future, they will have to go with something the size of Stormrunner or X-ellerator.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
I would have to go with Kingda Ka. I like water parks but I am more of rollercoaster guy. Plus after riding TTD it beats any water slide I have been on. I have been on many different types too. Only thing I would be mad about is the OTSR because I think it would ruin TTD.
16 Rides on TTD
10 in Front
