Same here!!!

Never been graced with that expression before, so I'm going to take it as the highest form of flattery lol. Thanks a lot, Sean! So excited to put our trip together!

Some wonderful smaller parks for sure!

Paradise Pier just opened last year, and Big Play just started adding coasters 2 years ago, so I'm sure it's taking some time for word to get around. I did visit Carousel Gardens in New Orleans the day after I went to Biloxi to ride their family coaster and classic carousel, I enjoyed my time there despite getting rained out. Unfortunately, the Dixie Landin' portion of Blue Bayou & Dixie Landin' was closed all of last summer. It did reopen this summer, so I look forward to giving the whole park a try the next time I'm in Louisiana!

All hail Eyerly Rides!

@@jonathansima7591 There is an SBF Visa Spinner in the trailer, and the number of spinners this season is greater than 1 😂

Just rewatched the trailer. Not gonna timestamp it so as not to spoil the surprise, but I love the ominous “blink-and-you-miss-it” spinner cameo. Much looking forward to Season 7!

There were some badass coasters ridden this summer!

It's going to be a blast! Really excited to share it with you all!

Oof, that's unfortunate. At least you're not terribly far from the park. Hope the rest of the visit went well.

Thanks so much! I had a great meal at the nearby Blind Tiger. Would love to try out some more places on a return visit.

Awesome! Hope you had a good time!

Thanks a lot, Jeff! Yeah, Gaudí really went all out when designing Sagrada Familia and Parc Güell, both are unlike anything I've ever seen anywhere. Haha, definitely hard for the coaster enthusiast in me to ignore Tibidabo, but it really is such an eye-catching place. Sorry about the audio. I tried to balance the levels as best I could, the iPhone I recorded this video on does not have the best microphone.

Thanks a lot, Sean! It was an incredible couple of days, I love how many sights and activities we were able to pack into a relatively short period of time. BTW, the building that Gojira performed on is at 4:30 in the background to the right.

100%! Although at the time this was recorded, I was days away from popping the question. But it was no less of a joy getting to explore the city and theme parks with her.

@@CivilianSatellite that would have been perfect to propose there on the tower! All good though

@@kennethgreggs5903 I had considered the Eiffel Tower, but figured that would be too cliché. It ended up being the right choice because it was very crowded at the top of the tower.

Lol, while I'd love a park like that within driving distance of me, I think a full-fledge theme park would feel out of the place with the natural beauty of that part of the country. I think a smaller regional park near Missoula would be pretty sweet though.

@@CivilianSatellite I can’t live in a town without Disney lol

Oh wow, that's incredible!

Monster Mansion is so good, I bet most parks wish they had it in their lineup.

Sounds like fun. A good-sized water park sounds like a great fit amongst the city's other offerings.

@@CivilianSatelliteit’s in gulf port wold recommend

Part of the reason we stopped into CJ's was because we had heard reports that the Loop Coaster would be closed and removed before the end of the 2023 season. But it's clearly still there, so it was either bad intel or someone backed out of a deal. Still interesting to hear that a coaster like that, which I'm sure a lot of smaller FECs would've loved to have in their lineup, is up for grabs.

I get the sentiment. At least this is an attraction both tourists and locals alike can enjoy.

Thanks a lot! Especially with their new go-kart track getting lots of media attention, I can absolutely see them going ambitious with their growth.

With so much space surrounding and in the center of the park, you can certainly go wild with the possibilities.

@@CivilianSatellite I am going to do an RMC Raptor.

If Western Playland were to ever get a high-thrill coaster, I can absolutely see a Raptor being one of their choices.

@@Christian-qv7hm I got to reride Rattler earlier this year, and it’s riding so so much better than it was when I filmed this. NM absolutely has a winner!

@@CivilianSatellite To be honest, yeah we do. It's just the transitions tho 😭It doesnt bank fully, it banks back to zero in the middle of the turns... besides that its an amazing coaster!

Those CCI laterals are actually what I love about Rattler, but I can understand them being a little jarring to some, especially when it's running rough.

@@margojohnson4224 Very excited for Mattel Adventure Park. I’ll absolutely give it a visit after it opens.

The park is connected to the Margaritaville Resort. I'm not sure if they share the same operator as the Golden Nugget or not.

Galveston has a pleasure pier and is owned by Fertitta . He owns many restaurant companies and all nugget casinos. Biloxi has changed a lot over the years.

Thanks so much! I had a great time in Biloxi, it was actually one of the biggest surprises for me last summer.

I live in Saucier, just a bit north of the coast, & I had no idea either of these parks were there! I have to get out more.

Thanks a lot! Yeah, the way the setting sun illuminates the Franklin Mountains is just gorgeous, it really complements the park's vibrant atmosphere very nicely. Hope you're able to experience one!

Lol, yeah, sometimes I let it get a bit too out of control when I'm traveling.

@@CivilianSatellite Hope ya' had fun in my great state of Michigan.

Thanks! I was just stopping in on my way to the airport from Cedar Point, but my previous visits to Michigan have all been very fun.

That sounds like a lot of fun, but I don't think I'll be able to make it there this year.

That's awesome! It's a really fun place.

The ride cycles of those are controlled by the operator, you can get some really demented rides depending on who's running it.

Thank you so much! I love getting surprised by some of these smaller locations.

lol

Thank you! Lol, she was super quick about it too.

A quick Google search is showing about $43, comes with both rides and water park.

The wild swinging absolutely makes the ride!

It was a lot of fun! Adorable little park.

@CivilianSatellite nice I just went I lovveedd it there it was so cute! The roller coaster was faster than expected

Oh wow, interesting that they removed it, and more so that they're keeping it around. I wonder if they're starting to clear out some of the relics from the Flintstones days.

Aw man, would have loved to try that. If I ever find myself back in Aberdeen, I'll give it a try.

You are welcome to use the footage. Looking forward to the video!

I remember seeing Demon Drop at Cedar Point the first time I visited the park in 2005. I was too afraid to ride it then. I'm really glad Dorney continues to run it so more people get the chance to ride this awesome clunker!

That's interesting! It felt so cohesive with the lake setting that I wouldn't have guessed it used to be a swimming pool.

With a Mattel Adventure Park location on the way, Kansas should at least get a little more fun in the near future.

Lol, had to slip in a Lost Boys reference somewhere.
