    I would hate to see Batman go, but they could expand the park and water park more with it gone.

    Another thing to think about is a coaster doesn't necessarily have to be removed, it could be something like Splash Water Falls (free spin or premier shuttle would look great there).

    If there is a coaster on the chopping block, it is probably Flashback. Although it is a much better ride than Goliath, it is neglected and looks awful with WiCy

    It's cool that the park tried something new with Goliath, but they need to accept their mistake and fix it. It's completely unacceptable to have the same situation for a second year.

    This is assuming the city would ever let them build a big coaster closer to the property line, in the buffer zone on top of houses. even with a new coaster they are still land locked. that employee lot is still there and being sued for something or some thing else in the future.

    Yes the coaster woudl be a solid addition to any park. especially one of the smaller ones. but I don't think taking it out would mean a bigger coaster. not unless ME came out and an addition came in that took over both sports.

    I truly don't understand why people believe batman is causing such a land lock, if the park really wanted to expand further into the lot (which I hope eventually happens) they could easily push the HH entrance back and build outward from the straight away that leads to the gift shop, or they could simply change the employee entrance and use that as an entrance to a new section in the employee lot.

    When the park announced Thomas land the employee lot behind Batman is where I expected it to go. It's were I woudl have put it. more room 2 possibly entrances/exits and a large looping area that can hold lots of rides.

    I wish the real world was like RCT where management could just relocate all the rides with no headache haha.
    This park has a horrible layout and they have so much wasted space everywhere.
    If only they could start over from scratch and make everything more fluid.

    I wish this whole buffer zone thing wasn't a problem, then my first suggestion would be to push the entrance gates to the other side of the road and relocate the loony toons land to the Thomas land (or whatever they call it now) spot in conjunction with where the front gate is now.
    It would be less of a hike for parents with strollers to get to a kiddy land and it would also tie into the carousel and hopefully give that more riders.

    That would also open up a decent size plot where loony toons is now. With the removal of Flashback (getting back on topic here) I could see a cool custom layout compact coaster fitting there or flats :)

    if like was like RCT and I was in charge guests woudl be paying for admission brochures, bathrooms, and just about everything else. just to get the capital to build whatever I wanted. I'm maniacal when it comes to RCT.

    I would love to see one of those Big Fun woodies in the park. There's lots of land available in the park its just a matter of moving a few things around. I would also like to see a custom moto-coaster because they are so much fun. As much as i like coasters I would rather see more flats like a unicoaster in rodeos spot to get more people up there to ride houdini which is an underrated ride imo.

    I was surprised when I went to go ride Houdini on my first visit to the park the line extended almost to Rodeo's old pad. I know the queue is small and it can hold a lot of people at once but it was still nice to see it getting love. Maybe its that more intense ride cycle they have this year haha

    If only the area surrounding the Picnic Grove wasn't wetlands. If it weren't I would love to see a compact Wing Coaster between the picnic grove an movie town and my amazing imagination a B&M Giga Coaster themed to Lex Luthor with the station being themed to the Legion of Doom Headquarters cause it's located in a swamp. Too bad both will never happen.

    A GCI would do well at SFNE. We only have 1 woodie and it isn't all that great. The park never really had a good woodie

    ^You should charge your phone.

    Also, didn't someone post a picture of a marker in the woods by the Grove earlier this year or something?
