Coaster/Amusement Park Trivia Thread

Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.
Postby CoasterCale on July 27th, 2015, 1:42 pm
Wolf's Den. The M porium was replaced by the arcade. If I'm remembering correctly, Sticky Fingers is original. If I git this right, anybody can go. I'm not full of knowledge. (AT least compared to other users)

It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle :?
Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? :roll: :P

Seeing that nobody has gone for it. I guess I pose a couple of questions that are closely related. If everything goes to plan, Goliath will loose a world record to another Woodie next year. What coaster would it be? What record would it take?

Well, with the marketing skills of Six Flags, they will probably market Goliath as the Steepest complete circuit wooden coaster. :P

I wouldn't be surprised. With the same logic, American Eagle is World Record Holder. :wink:
Anyways, BabyDinosuar was correct. You're up if you like!

Hmmm, this one's probably a very easy one but... Where was Ricochet located before moving to SWT and What was it's name?

It was originally called Big Top, and was where Dare Devil Dive now stands. The cement filling from the ride can still be seen.

Well, Tamar Fellner died on Raven after reported standing. Also I guess it was the date of a Raven ACE event.

Can I go? (Because of inactivity)

Six Flags was originally planing two coasters to replace Vampire at Kentucky Kingdom.

Which two coasters were they, are where are they currently located?

Holiday World was planning on changing the trains for Voyage. What type of trains were they, what year was this, and what other major event happened just before the conversion?

They were thinking of going with Timberliners in 2010 or 2011, as they were "new and great" for the time. Not sure about the "major event" but the trains didn't really work. HW sold the old trains so they used some of the Raven trains to help. (Rayvage) That's also why the last car is MIA.

Close enough. The other major event was Will Koch's death.

You're up!

Epcot didn't open with the Norway or Morocco Pavilions. Epcot was designed so new additions could be brought to World Showcase without it ever being obvious that these places are planned for possible Pavilions. How many spots are left today?

Nope. Maybe I should pose a different question as this one is probably difficult.
