"Hey, look, security is escorting a crying, glitter-flecked man out of the park. How odd... Ooh, I want in the front car!"

Maybe they haven't announced Tempesto because it's also being fired.
So last night I was finally able to get an in-person view of this thing....pictures don't do it justice how large this coaster will be. It appears a decent amount of work has been completed, almost half-way through the non-inverting loop.
I refrained from getting too close and poking my head or phone over any walls for obvious reasons, trust me, I got a good amount of odd looks from employees as it was.
View from the future entrance plaza.
Below is a photo from August 31st taken from the lockers, just a basis for a rough comparison of the land then and now..
August 31st..(lockers)
Now... (outside Apollo's queue)

Oh yeah... threatening to kick you out of the park for taking pictures of a stuck I305 from the Eiffel Tower. Good times...
^That's PR. Who would want pics coming out of something embarrassing as that? It could cost the park money.
Taking pics of a ride that isn't even open is completely different.

I went over there to say Hi to Frosty and I was paranoid. Shouldn't haven't to feel like that. Great pics btw!John said:So last night I was finally able to get an in-person view of this thing....pictures don't do it justice how large this coaster will be.

I noticed a heavy amount of employees over in that section the park just roaming around. I found that interesting.... And thanks!Luke said:I went over there to say Hi to Frosty and I was paranoid.

Once word got out that the ride was broken KD lost a lot of attendance, same thing happened when El Toro went kaput at Great Adventure. Once the cat's out of the bag you can't really do anything about it. BGW is trying to shove the cat into the bag even though it's already had kittens.
Took a few shots yesterday by Frosty - encountered zero trouble.

You know what they say about guys with large cameras.....
Could have been! Do you have an idea about what time it was? Can't imagine there were many people with DSLRs taking photos of the construction.
