I just went on the SC Demon today, for the first time in about 3 years. They have blocked off the opening in the front car. No more being able to stretch your legs. Being 6'3", that really takes the fun out of sitting in the front.

To answer Gameboy's question, I have no idea how security works at that place anymore. I have not worked their in almost 9 years. The people you saw using they're "radios" out of a paper bag, were probably S.E.T. These were the undercover officers. Now they might use wireless mics. As for Stealthguy...

Very good PGA Rocks. That is why I wrote: They should just be happy that they no longer have to share their stadium with a baseball team. They have had the stadium to thereselves since 2001. We are all very aware of Pac Bell/SBC/AT&T Park. (FYI, Monster park is in the San Francisco city limits, in t...

If the Winers can't find a suitable location within San Francisco, then maybe they should move completely out of the area. Los Angeles still needs a football team, they should try moving there. OK, realistically though, maybe they should give the Bay Meadows site a try. That location is closer to th...

How do I set up the album? I've actually wanted to get one started as I have some (recent) pictures to share of SC's Great America in it's current state.

I can only suggest to ask Steve.

Angry_Gumball,

I cannot see the pic you posted. Could you possibly put it in the photo album or create a link for it. Thanks.

I cannot find a link to post, but while watching the Channel 2 news last night, they reported that the wave pool will re-open today.

LOL

I can't see the pics you made. Could you post them in the photo album please?

It looks like we have gotten slightly off topic, but since we are adding in none Marriot era rides, the worst one I remember from my ride ops days would have to be Revolution. There was one time that I had to E-Stop the ride because some kid that was chewing tobacco spit a huge wad of juice onto the...

I was looking at photos of SFGA's Deja Vu, and I noticed that it is green and blue. It got me thinking, wasn't CFGA's Invertigo originally green and blue? Or has it always been yellow and blue? If anybody knows, please advise. Thanks.

The chicken strip platter must be new. I haven't been their since 2005. Last time I was their though, the burgers were dry, the frys and corndogs were over cooked, and the pizza at Pizza Orleans was skimpy on topping.

I don't remember the ferris wheel at the SC park. Then again, I was born in 79, so I may have been removed before I could see it (Or remember seeing it).
