That sounds like every other rumor, concernign our park. I dont know why some one would wast their time writting an article about somthign that no one knows about then only to say its false.

haha that's what you told those kids in line for Bull on Friday... :lol:

That would be cool. Wouldnt they have to tear down loggers run also? ANd do you really think six flags would start on a new rollercoaster this late?

by **Drkstarboard** on October 15th, 2005, 9:48 pm

I think not

by **RagingBull914** on October 15th, 2005, 9:52 pm

Haha they forgot RB in the list of rides over 125ft.

OMG I LOVE IMS IM SO GLAD ITS STAYING!!!

Well people never expect Six Flags to tare down IMS for a 300ft coaster!

I've never ridden Clipper. So I'm glad it was just a false rumor.

Why do I remember somebody telling me this yesterday? :roll:

My thoughts were filled with excitement at first and I thought Hoffman was using reverse psychology if you will because it got out too early, then it metioned 12 inversions and I really did not beleive it was true at all. Then when the rumor was that PAX was to create it, I was hoping it wasnt true...I really dislike pax

Eh, yuk! If it said Intamin it would be more beleivable but its a stupid rumor that someone knew would stir up people just as its doin now, so he/she succeeded in doing that...

just another rumor, but if it were real than it would be cool, but that is a big if.

Yeah...No...

I heard its only 299 feet. It will be the first coaster to featue 6 cobra rolls in a row.

Oh Ok.

Or not.

"It's a hoax," said Great America Public Relations Manager Michelle Hoffman of an "Internal Memo" anonymously mailed to The News Sun Friday. "It's not accurate at any level," Hoffman said.

i saw the memo last week, i thought it could've been true for maybe three seconds, and then shook to my senses and realized it was false.

Why does the city have this law anyways? The one where there is a height restriction?

by **Rusty888** on October 16th, 2005, 1:15 pm

cause people complain about the noise (correct me if i'm wrong)

by **CoastsToCoasters** on October 16th, 2005, 3:12 pm

There are many restrictions, like noise, complaints, airports, etc.

There are a few topics like this including one I started, this topic is about a rumor nothing more and a 300ft coaster by pax :roll:

ehh!

by **haydawg149** on October 16th, 2005, 4:20 pm

they probably should have built SFGAm elsewhere . . .

then they wouldnt have these problems

by **pennyroyalest** on October 16th, 2005, 4:26 pm

I may be wrong, but if we were getting a new coaster, wouldn't it have been announced by now? To give people more incentive to get season passes for next year (the ones that don't have one already)?

by **CoastsToCoasters** on October 16th, 2005, 4:49 pm

Not really, some parks such as AT keep it a "secret" for guests to find out alot later. Which I think would be quite cool, and correct me if Im wrong but SUF wasnt even announced till january. I have a newspaper article from January saying what was to come in '03
