Partnership Between Kings Dominion and Busch Gardens

[MAZ]

Carowinds and anybody affiliated with them do not standardize or classify rollercoasters. They are enthusiasts just like you and me. I can guarantee you that there is nothing labeled 'Giga' in the B&M sales catalog. Their coasters taller than 200 feet are labeled Hypercoasters. There is no argument to be made. Its their coaster. Its their label. Which brings me back to the point that I made earlier, Marketing can 'technically' call 1305 the tallest giga and get away with it. Only Intamin labels their coasters with the term Giga. Just because everybody else in the coaster world 'adopted' the term, doesn't mean shit.

Edit....No coaster references here. http://www.thefreedictionary.com/giga-

I'd give it a season, maybe two before the whole thing gets scrapped.

I agree Nicole. I am stoked that they are collaborating on a joint effort to raise attendance. Many people are complaining about it making ride waits longer, but boosting attendance creates more money for everybody involved, which means more park improvements. Kudos to them!

This has been been up for a little while, but the two parks' partnership is mentioned on KD's website. Link

I don't think this has been mentioned yet but the tickets are finally for sale here.

Found the links off of the main Virginia and Richmond tourism pages:

Interesting that Kings Dominion is handling the actual ticket sales through their Accesso Store. I looked around to see if their was a version of it on SEAS 4Adventure Store but couldn't find it. Looks like BGW is happy to let KD handle the actual ticketing.

too bad you can't find it from either parks site

That is also interesting, you would think they would both be linking to the double deal, its not like one is loosing business to the other with this deal. It should be listed alongside all the other ticket options at both parks in my opinion.
