Planet Snoopy will likely be rethemed to a new property or just a generic kids zone. Maybe MIA can finally get that hyper coaster they were supposed to get before being acquired by Cedar Fair.
Impacts of EPR & Enchanted Parks Deal on Michigan's Adventure
- Thread starter Eclipso127
- Start date
You should expect this sale to cause Michigan's Adventure to act more like a park of its size, not less. You don't see Adventureland, Indiana Beach, or Silverwood adding hyper coasters. Definitely don't expect it from Michigan's Adventure.
This.
I firmly believe that Dorney would be still going strong with Thunderhark, Hercules, and Laser, and Little Laser, had CF not bought the park in the early 90s, as a small-local competitor more along the lines of Knoebel's or Idlewild.
Hahaha that is fair. Maybe it's only because I only rode it a handful of times as an adult (and a ton as a kid), and yes I know it was rough, but I still miss it. The twisty pre-lift section predated RMC doing it by almost 30 years and was a ton of fun, and that initial dive down to the water and curve was tough to beat. Maybe it's just memory-tinted glasses. I always kinda had a "if I win the lottery" dream of buying Dorney Park and contracting GCI to rebuild it with only very minor changes to the layout haha.
Hurt-Your-Knees deserves to be the wood used for the embers of hell.
And I also didn't specify that it would be any good. Just that might still be around had ownership stayed independent LOL.
I loved the layout, but man that ride is why rough has a new meaning to me. My favorite is the lack of POV’s after its first 2-3 years of service (ok likely actually longer than that) is because no camera could survive the drop turn into the lake. I do kinda wish they waited and rebuilt it rather than put Hydra in it’s place.
