Probably so people don't confuse it with the clone of it 5 hours away at Six Flags Over Texas.

^ Im going to go with No, the only people that would realize theres a clone (an excellent one I might add) is Acers and coaster freaks like us.

^The THRILL of meeting Batman! :lol: I loved that lame Disneyesque quality of it!

And Galvan, i would assume post people will at the very minimum, acknowledge a connection with this ride and the Great White. Oh well, it's their first inverted coaster so they'll have fun with it!
RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter :(

BTR= Batman: The Ride

SFNO= Six Flags New Orleans
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
