I agree that it seems like the big statues are holding orbs behind their backs, but I'm not anticipating they will light up as they look like the same material as the rest of the statue... but it is a little hard to see from afar, it would be cool if they did!

The commercial shoot has been rescheduled for this upcoming Friday, take that as you will. There's still ongoing work on the site, but the weather was looking awful for the original Tuesday shoot. At the very least it does not seem that a passholder preview for Friday (which was never announced, just inferred by some) is possible anymore.

Is media day still scheduled for the 22nd? If that was moved, I'd be more concerned that its not a weather issue and more of a "ride is not ready" issue.

Will there be another chance to apply to do it since the date moved?

50 rides 8/17/2018 (Without Flash Pass - Coasters After Dark)
Disappointed that possible rumor of a pass preview was a dud. But at least that sign looks cool. Still excited to go but I probably can't make it back until first week of June.
Please be open by then.....

I absolutely love that WoR is getting a legitimate, "in universe" backstory! If this was due to the new Cedar Fair merger, i think we have a lot of good things in store for future rides!
Sooo maybe the "Ornleas Bros" also have another Demon they're traveling with.... will the theme carry over? I'm not thinking an overhaul of theming by any means but maybe a new portal.
Awesome! Make that section with Wrath and Demon the Carn-evil I still hope they make a 1970's style theme for Wrath. I could imagine the funk guitar and flute with a deep voice singing "Feel the wrath, Feel the wrath"
They posted that Rakshasa is now open. Unless it does publicly open this Friday after the commercial shoot because that's the only way this post makes sense.

^ text says now open, but the video says coming soon. Not that it makes it better, the two statements contradict each other, still an oopsie. But I don't see how the post would make sense if it opens Friday, the park is open tomorrow/Tues-Thurs

I'm definitely a fan of the whole "exhibit at the county fair" vibe, but that does seem to axe the idea John had mentioned of splitting off Demon and Wrath into their own mini-area and making County Fair smaller.

Thought we were still weekends only. Hence why I thought that ad would have made sense because that would mean Wrath would be open the next following operating day from when the ad appeared.
They have since reposted where the video and text no longer contradict.

Old Great America was better, however I hope just a bit of that charm comes back
