It'd be neat if they swapped Giant Drop for a 400-foot tall ride like the Lex Luthor one at SFMM. That'd be some experience. But Gurnee wouldn't allow it.

I really got a kick out of the Raging Bull being swapped to SFA bit.

Hear ye, hear ye: "After 45 years, Six Flags has stopped smoking."
What?
If We're going Impossible, I'd be fine with a S&S Combo Tower or Intamin Stand-Up Gyro Drop. I would love an ARM Drop Tower but their capacity would be terrible. 943 Coasters around the World! Countdown to 1000!

Gold Rush is gone. I noticed the big empty space today in SW where it used to be located!
Gotta clear out space for the demon replacement coaster!
What's Gold Rush?
"Everyone, listen to me! These jerks killed Superboy. They've tried to kill us. Now they say they're going to tear this city apart. I say... like hell."
 This is Gold Rush.  Gone
Anyone know of it was moved anywhere else in the park or just removed completely?
^ I haven't found it yet. I assume it's sitting in a backstage area somewhere.
I also noticed that they removed the Italian ice stand by v2 which sucks cause I'd always get some after I rode v2... Anyone know if it's been removed or is just hidden very good?
Gold Rush is closed up and sitting backstage currently
Probably Removed for Fright Fest.
Also the two larger slides in KIDZOPOLIS have been closed for least the last 3 weeks. Not sure why but I would not be surprised if someone got hurt so they closed them. I seen kids running up and down the slides with no parent supervision. Carlo
Benches were gone too. Looked like they cut the bolts off that held them down. I'd say it's at least out of that spot for good
King Chaos has been down for three days now.
It got stuck with riders on Monday. They were above the water, not inverted or anything. Not sure how long they were there but when I walked past the line was cleared, and maintenance was bringing a ladder up to the platform.
My wife and I have hated those slides for years. Kids run up the slides while kids are coming down, kids go flying out of the slides too fast and hit kids on the bottom. A manager actually asked my wife one visit what she thought of that play area while our kids were playing there, and she shared her true feelings. I hope that whole contraption is removed. We are glad the slides are closed.
Why the empty stage then? I am just surprised since it was popular.
13 Years with SFGAm World!
Don't know, but an empty stage beats karaoke and day of the week. I don't want to hear people who have no business holding a microphone slaughtering good songs or making bad songs even worse.
Amen.
They've been using the stage for character meet and greets.
My next visit will probably be in about a month, so I checked the hours. The next possible date would be the 23rd. The hours say 3:30-2:00, and the park opens at 3:30 everyday of August. Obviously this is wrong, right?
Check out my Coaster vids
http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_o4Mtg8LDHpRuK7rRKMdAQ It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle  Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU?   (Sorry in advance for unnecessary commas and parenthesis every where)
It didn't used to be that way, something probably got screwed up with time zones. Looks like all the times showing are 5 hours later than they should be, because the park opens at 10:30 every day. So, the 23rd would be 10:30-9:00.
Goliath FINALLY has a border/design for the on ride picture.
