Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

There's dosent run much better than ours.
You aren't allowed to sit in the front car, because they don't want anyone to get freaked out when it miscatches.
That's saying something...

I don't think you'd get exit passes on that unless you're stuck on the lift or in the pretzal loop (Yeah right)

^If you got stuck in the pretzel you would be getting a lot more than just an exit pass...

I drove past the park around noon today, and there it was - a construction crane in place next to Deja Vu. No visible signs of anything being done, but if the crane is there, the process is started. I made a post quite a while ago, whether it was here or on another fan site, but I will reiterate what I said. The saddest thing about the removal of this ride is that it never lived up to its potential. I had many good rides on it, but throughput was so low that the ride's fate was sealed. Newer and better attractions are on their way! As they say, "Watch This Space"!
We should all remember to be thankful to have a world-class theme park like Six Flags Great America here in our local area!

Nothing has been removed yet. The platform is hidden by the track. You can easily see the thick blue line where the platform is. And I would think they might keep the platform there for some of the deconstruction.
I though I would also add this.

Its the original PROMO from 2000 of Dejavu. I clearly remember when I downloaded it, it took like an hour because of dial-up, and I was so impressed. It kind of makes me sad to watch because at the time of its release, we had no idea is was going to go so soon. And now its gone
