No More "Fun" Spiels at Great America

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

Alright to clear up confusion. They can still can do manual spiels, the only thing they put a end to is saying stuff like "Let me hear ya hollar" (they can only do that once a hour now) and "Drop it like it's Hot" and stuff like that.
Go Bulls!

Oh well, can V2 still do the "Prepared for Launch....GOODBYE!" thing or is that too offensive?

Ok well I could defnitley see a problem there!! :lol:

So the River Rocker guy blew it for the park :evil: They didn't bother me.. a couple of them were entertaining. I also clearly remember hearing the original spiels and then the "fun spiels" on Saturday.

I was there yesterday. They were doing their own spiels, but the ones on some of the rides were stupid. V2 had very good ones. I rode V2 15 times without getting off, and all of the spiels were good each time.

What time were you at V2 where you could get 15 rides in a row? :shock: I thought it was getting busy during weekdays lately...

busy? It's been dead. The waterpark has significantly succeeded beyond all my expectations in making lines shorter!

Um. Can't that be considered as sexual harrassment?

How packed was the parking lot yesterday that you got to go on so many V2 rides in a row? How long were other lines in the park? Was the waterpark jammed packed?

I got back just today and the Vu crew were still doing their great spiels. They were limited to what they could say, but they are still allowed to say them.

The regular lot has been filled with the overflow lot barely open and everything has still been dead. The waterpark's been packed but the only thing with a line the past couple of days (I went Saturday, Monday and Tuesday) has been Vu. There have been very few people in the regular park. Even before and After HH closes.

FUNS SPIELLS never went away, THEY ARE BETTER

Deja Vu: "There goes the floor, now your out the backdoor, see you back in a minute 34"

Giant Drop: "Up you go, but down you fall. Will you stop?.....Enjoy your drop"

V2: "are we ready to launch?.....3....2.....1.....wait.........wait (TRAIN LAUNCHES) ..... O wait...GOOD BYE"
