Because there's no way between the garbage trucks, trash barges, and land fills that trash can end up in the waters. Trust me when I say that when you observe a necropsy of a sea turtle and you watch what they pull out of the body, you won't have balloons at your next party.

Not sure if I mentioned this earlier but I did notice they repaved the tram road entirely.

When I picked up my mom's pass last weekend, I showed them my pass so they could scan it or whatever for verification. Without asking me or providing a reason, in addition to printing a pass for my mom, they reprinted mine. Now it is not a HUGE deal, but I liked the Verbolten image on my pass. This is what I got instead:

They are probably phasing the old Busch Gardens logo out of existence on passes.

I've been waiting for these new tickets to show up. They must have finally burned through all the old stock.

Attached I have an older one from 2011. Being that I only visit once a year, since I live up in NH, I loved getting a different picture each year. However this time I only got a 'receipt' style ticket :-/.

Those five are it. It was just the four including the girl and mom in front of festhaus before last year. They added Verbolten to the mix last year to make 5 designs. We should have a thread for tickets. I would love to see everyone's ticket designs from over the years. I have an extensive collection.

Well, there is Europe in the Air. Wait, nix that. So, then there is this Killarney Kommotion show that's....uhm, well, it's...

Okay, so there are no attractions there. WAIT! Celtic Fyre is there. The only real legacy show left! Is this slight to Ireland on the map a forboding of the future?

Is there a place for major changes?!

 

[Planeteer]

RE: Minor Changes (2013)

Miller?

 

[pandorazboxx]

RE: Minor Changes (2013)

Miller lite yes.

RE: Minor Changes (2013)

Miller lite yes.

Did they not have non-AB beers previously? Or is it just the first time to see Miller Lite at the park?

RE: Minor Changes (2013)

It's always been AB owned beers since they opened.

I guess BGW was holding out. BGT had other beers available for awhile now... my first visit was May 2012 and they had at least Miller and Yuengling available (tap and bottles).

RE: Minor Changes (2013)

They have had many many other European and craft brews. This is the first time I've seen a domestic competitor to bud light.

Having Miller in the park is a big thing. The beer business around here is controlled by two major distributors, M. Price does the Busch and Budweiser products and Tri City does the Miller and Cores. To have the competition in the cooler is a good thing for Tri City but I have mixed feelings. After all it is Busch Gardens.

Shame on you. Just. Shame. Double shame.

RE: Minor Changes (2013)

That is blasphemy. I would not buy a miller there if it was a quarter and over a hundred degrees out. What a shame...
