It's sad that they're using Theatre Royal as a queue line for TDK. I must admit though, I'm not big on shows and would rather have a coaster. A little wild mouse didn't thrill me but at least it's a coaster.
Whatta day! Whatta place!

Hey, do you have any more pics of the construction of DK? The only pics that the SF website has is of the NJ park. Thanks much if you do! :D

Six Flags Great America's website has some construction photos posted as well. I've also got some photos at SFGAm Zone:

Thanks for the pics! I can't wait for the ride to open, even though I'm going to miss Theatre Royale. It was the first thing I ever remember at SFGAm. My dad even made a film of one of the Bugs Bunny shows in there. Even though they didn't allow to to take filming devices in there. :lol:

A little more history wiped away.

I swear, before long the whole park will simply be Gotham City.
