Not pissed at all....I'm glad that Cedar's is making a bunch of good changes. Maybe I'll start going to Canada's Wonderland again instead of Cedar Point for a change. It's about damn time! |
Amen to that.
I welcome Cedar Fair with open arms. They actually know how to operate a theme park and it shows through their hordes of other successes.
Paramount bought Wonderland in 94 and added Top Gun.. errr.. Flight Deck in 95 (only 4 years after Vortex). Here we are 13 years later and we're just now getting another coaster. Makes me wonder how long Paramount would've waited.
