Demon Footers...

Post by ILuvTheDemon »

When you are in line for the Demon, and you get around to the other side of the tunnel, there's a grassy area, and in that area is a large concrete footer that I always wondered about, I always thought that there was a statue or something there, but I recently saw a picture on The Demon's myspace page of the original sign, which I've seen a million times already, but I noticed something in the background which might have been attached to the mysterious footer: http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.c ... eID=801648

It looks to me like a post for Eagle's Flight/Delta Flyer or Southern Cross, any idea if this is what belonged on the footer or not, and if it was, what was it?

Yup you were right, it is a footer from Southern Cross.
Maybe a GREAT day is just what you need this year.

Aha! I knew it! But the thing that made me think other wise was that it was still there, I would've thought that Marriott would have taken the whole thing- footer and post out though. I also thought that it could've been some sort of theming element that six flags took out until I saw the picture.

Thanks!
