let’s gooo ruined my sleep schedule to make pantheon update posts
forgot about this post i made yesterday too about the painting of the station
Is there anywhere I can park my car with some good views of the skyline that isn't in the park's parking lot?
My dumb ass got excited and thought the mound of dirt was Maverick-esque rockwork theming for a second ?
We went through that it might have been from the initial ride plaza plans that were scrapped.
The location of that bridge doesn't even make a whole lot of sense in the first place, the first launch is right next to backstage, not any reasonable connection to San Marco.
Initially the plan was for Pantheon to connect next to Marco Polo and have the ride entrance go over the first launch. That was scrapped at some point and the bridge was moved to it's current location. For whatever reason whoever made the pov was working from the old site plans.
Right, but what would the path to that bridge be like to end up next to the back of that backstage building there in order to cross the launch? Seems like it would have been much easier to go over or under the s-bend, closer up to the garden of inventions.
Yikes. BGW just pulled any mention of a Spring opening from their website.
Aww
. But I’d rather the park release Pantheon later in the year with no problems, than release it in the spring and have a bunch of technical difficulties.I really want to get on Pantheon just like everyone else, but honestly, I do think it may be best for BGW to hold off until the capacity restrictions are lifted. The attractions that did open in 2020 felt like they only made a ripple in the media. This is BGW's biggest addition since 2007. I'm happy to wait longer if it means a better outcome for the park here.
Wow. I didn’t even think about that. But I guess only but so many people could attend Pantheon’s grand opening, causing the park to make much less money than they originally expected.
There are no issues with Pantheon construction that I have heard about. It's what @Zachary said the park doesn't know when it will officially reopen and doesn't want to market spring when it might be summer. 2021 is still the safer route to go
This assumes that BGW can even sell out to the capacity restrictions in the spring, which is not a sure thing in this environment. It's nice to wait for ideal times, but they may need the new ride just to help get back to some semblance of normal sales.
