Wouldn’t Finnegan’s Flyer and/or Cutback make a lot more sense?
Apollo's Chariot 20th Anniversary
- Thread starter Mwe BGW
- Start date
Cutback will be the Water Country cup as they normally have two different ones. At BGW who knows last year it was Loch Ness. So it could be Finnegan's Flyers or Apollo based on which one the park thinks will sell more.
People will buy the cup regardless of what is printed on it. I still wish BGW could offer a cup with unlimited free refills for they year. Even if the cup is more expensive. Soda is cheap.
I wish they would go with the KD system, no cups to carry around and figure out what to do with on rides.
At the very least they let you carry the drink into the line so it isn't too bad...
Shockingly, the best park I've seen handle the cup situation is Six Flags. They have shelves just for cups.
Which will be Apollo IMO. It's no nessie but it's still an icon of the park, people love it
1 - the cup will likely be FF over Apollo.
2 - Celebrate the 20th. One of the first B&M Hypers to be made.
3 - I've been told that the paint will make it all the way around.
4 - I think facing audio and a redone queue would be a great 'gift' outside of the paint.

I would like proper, full size speakers installed all the way up both sides of the lift hill so that the soundtrack can be properly heard on real speakers instead of awful, tinny sounding, miniature bullhorn style speakers that were designed for playing klaxons not music.
That is unless the park wants to buy some new Hollywood Dream trains from B&M and play the entire soundtrack for the entirety of the ride?
I'd be happy with either option really.

Nessie's 10th was honored at the park in 1988.
For those of you (like me) that haven't heard the entire music piece...and a trip to the past for those that paid 99¢ on iTunes back in 2014 -

The Apollo soundtrack is still available to Apple Music users along with Europe in the Air, Illuminights, and several Sea World shows and events.
Yeah it was a pretty big event mostly because it was ACE’s 10th anniversary as well and since they were pretty much formed at the park they decided to celebrate where it began and that included Nessie’s birthday.
Yeah that was a big factor but I do vaguely remember some Nessie merch mentioning its 10th Birthday.
Found these old photos on a TPR page. Hbd Apollo!
