    With twister being removed, what do you think is going to happen in the future?

    ^ Yes but according to the investigation report the operator tampered with the safety controls of the ride and was arrested for negligence. That is also a carnival model and not a park model.

    I love Rockville and the theming, I don't think anything should be done to change it. Add another ride, sure, but don't change the theme of the area.

    I woudl make 3 changes. Relocate buzzsaw and add a 50/60's themed attraction. add a new ride in place of the removed twister, and remove the center games building. I find the themeing good but the area is really cramped.

    They could put in any good ride with a Square to Rectangular footprint. Even something compact, like space rings is good.

    I still like the idea of screamin' eagles. Maybe this could go in twister's spot.

    Not without a lot of ground work. The foot print is pretty big. and even then it may not fit. Flying scooters need 55ft to operate.
