PGA removes yet another ride.

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

Paramount once again has removed another Marriott era ride from its collection. It just gets more and more sad with that park.

I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

I could understand them knocking it down because they were getting a new ride. But all that they did was put a pass processing area in.

I hope our Triple Play doesn't end up looking as ugly as that. :cry:

They really are loosing rides at that park. Greased Lightnin, Stealth, and now Triple Play. :?
The only thing they saved that SFGAm got rid of is Berserker(Industrial Rev. or Yukon, Yahoo--not sure which), and Delta Flyer.
Finally Coaster Season!!

PGA is in horrible shape. From what I understand, they aren't getting many people out to the park these days.

They have a bad safety record too, and there are all kinds of other parks around that area.

It relates to PGA. This is quite interesting if you havn't read it. I don't agree that SFStL should get it because they have Mr. Freeze. I wouldn't have bought it though.

I also want to add that SFNO has gotten rid of two flats this year. One is Chance's Chaos, and the other I think is the Inverter. They seem to be having trouble along with having bad hours.

Wow that is sad. That one thing I enjoy about Great America they kept the over all shape of the park but PGA looks nothing like it.

I dont see how PGA has a bad safety record. And annually their attancance isnt all that far off SFGAm's numbers.

Place is pretty creepy and depressing though.

It may be a lot different than what it used to be, but from pictures I have seen, it looks like a very clean, well kept park.
