Wait, so no Twisted Timbers? Did I read that right?
 
Will Pantherian be up and running?

If they're playing it off as a beer fest, I sure hope they reduce some of the pricing.

I get that it's generally high per draft because captured audience and they don't want a lot of drunkasses running around the park; but for me it's not worth paying $12-$15 per beer when I can go a few miles down the road to COTU and get about double the beer for the same price.

If they lowered it to about $8-$10, I may be ok with with buying a beer but probably won't get more than one; that's a win-win for everyone right there, assuming I don't get short-poured or a cup of foam.

I'm surprised it was left off the "CLOSED" list. I'm assuming the first weekend it WILL be open (since it's not listed) but it will probably close for the season before the event itself ends. This is all temp dependent of course, but with FoF closed completely for the event it probably won't take long to close that whoel plaza area off and call it a day.

Pantherian was running for most operating days last November despite flight of fear being closed. All rides are operated based on weather, and I felt with the park operating in the warmest part of the day last season they had plenty of coasters open.

I was honestly shocked Pantherian was running on Black Friday last year. It was in the mid to low 40s with quite a bit of wind, although I did hear it and along with the rest of the rides did close later in the evening when the temps dropped even more.
