Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

I was told by an employee in 1998 that SFGAm would be getting a 200ft tall coaster the next year named Silver Bullet. He was right about the 200ft coaster part, but the name was saved for a B&M built quite a few years later.
Don't you mean the Dipin' Dots vendor? They always know these kinds of things...

That would make a lot of sense if they named the two V2s Superman Ultimate Escape to go along with the name of the now defunct coaster at the once-called Six Flags Worlds of Adventure.

appears to be an RRC lurker in our midsts
though that running joke has probably long since spread. Long live the Dippin Dots guy!

The only thing Shockwave would have attracted to Great Adventure were masochists.

Actually, if I were to guess, V2 was to be named Superman to possibly retheme Yankee Harbor to something with DC Comics.
Well, that's my Two Cents.

^If that's the case, I'm glad they didn't go along with it.
To add to the cancelled, they are NOT going to remove the water ride next to Chiller anymore....
