25th Season

I DID IT! I rode Skycoaster and it was incredible! The rush as you're falling is something that you can't get on a coaster, not even Rebellion! If it wasn't $25 to ride, I'd ride it everytime I came to the park!


Rollercoasters don't seem so scary anymore!


The weather was great today, perfect for eating outdoors!


The crowds were susprisingly moderate for a Saturday.


I've heard that next year's addition will finally connect Bugs Bunny National Park with Gotham City Backlot. I wonder what it could be, though. We haven't had a big coaster since 2001's V2!


What a day!

I love ripcord rides! but they definetly are money whores.

I love how the stars look in the last picture. Undertaker's lights are stunning to.

But stay realistic,maybe add a flatride or a restaurant,nothing big in the next years.
Maybe a S&S Swing or Skyswat(not sure with the dates).

25th Season

We're progressing through this season quickly. It seems that way anyway.


I sometimes forget Superman's second half... since it's not as obvious as the first half!


It's just as great, though!


Mainstreet is bustling as always!


Undertaker never disappoints!


Have a great day!

2003
25th Season

Today was somewhat a big news day, for the middle of the season at least. Joseph Reynolds announced his retirement at the end of the season. His time at the park dates back well before the park closed due to Hugo. He reclaimed his management position shortly after Six Flags bought the park. He plans on spending more time with his family, but will be assisting the new manager acclimate to the position.


Also, it was announced that Indigo Plunge will now be known as Deer Park Plunge, an obvious sponsorship by the popular bottled water. No word on whether or not the ride will receive any retheming.


Hello Undertaker!


Bugs Bunny National Park was packed today (as was most of the park)!


Have a great day!

25th Season

I heard from one of my "sources" today that the park will soon announce the closure of one of the major attractions at the park. He didn't say which one in particular, but I know one coaster that isn't out of the question:

Vulture is the most likely. As unfortunate as it is, the ride has become more uncomfortable to ride each season, and I've heard that the ride's maintenance costs have gone through the roof. I guess we'll see soon enough.


I rode Skycoaster again today!


It wasn't as "breath-taking" but it was still very fun.


I don't believe we have to worry about Undertaker leaving.


Drop!


Have a great day!

Sad to hear that Vulture leaves probably,but the world won`t stop turning.

is there object limits in rct3?

^

haven't ever heard of one, but as soon as your park would get close to anything like this, it'll lag so much you can't play it anymore. Sad problem...

25th Season

I've heard that we could know as soon as tomorrow which attraction will be leaving us soon. My money is unfortunately on Vulture, but I guess we won't know for sure until then.


Superman seems to be running really fast lately.


I got several rides in today.


I love airtime, coasters wouldn't be the same without it!


Moving on...


I guess it's time to head home!


I spent a good portion of the day at the park which was great because I don't get to do that as much. I'm looking forward to seeing what next year brings!

2003
25th Season

Vulture will be leaving us at the end of July. A sign appeared outside the sign that the ride will close on August 1st, 2003, which is only three weeks away. If you haven't been to the park recently - you only have a few more weeks to experience this classic coaster. I thought I'd dedicate the first part of this update to Vulture's history.


Vulture opened in 1984 back when the park was known as Charleston Gardens Amusement Park. It drew alot of attention because many had never seen this style of coaster before.


The ride's five four-seat carriages sped through the trees and down close to the banks of the lake below.


The ride was repainted dark red when Six Flags purchased the park but in recent years has received little attention compared to other coasters at the park.


The sign near Vulture's entrance says that the coaster is closing to make way for a new attraction.


I've been told that Vulture's replacement will not open until 2005. Rather, in 2004, we will see a smaller addition that will connect the Gotham City Backlot with Bugs Bunny National Park. But nothing is confirmed yet.


I suppose it will take some time to dismantle Vulture.

Vulture will be greatly missed.
1984 - 2003

I'll see you next season.

Ironically, I was just listening to Billy Joel's Only the Good Die Young when i read this. It rings true unfortunatly

RIP Vulture

My money is on a Tony Hawk's Big Spin or Pandamonium.

2006 should be exciting though, since SF went with several unique rides and themes, since Tatsu and El Toro are probaly some of the best rides SF has put out, along with Goliath that year aswell.
