OH MY GOD, SHAKING AND CRYING, NEARLY PEEING MY PANTS
Six Flags Great America just uploaded this video for the NEW COASTER THEY'RE GETTING NEXT YEAR!:
*squeeeeeeeeee* Super excited right now! Practically bouncing off the walls. Nearly peed my pants watching this. (That may have something to do with the three cups of coffee I've had this morning, though.) This looks similar to the X2 out at Magic Mountain, except this ride's seats don't rotate 360 degrees. I thought Great America would be getting something like that Green Lantern vertical coaster, but THIS looks MUCH better.
That's it. I'm going opening day next season. I don't care if I have to wait three hours to ride it. Screw FlashPass; sometimes the anticipation of getting on adds to the excitement.
(I'm wondering where they're going to put this coaster. This is definitely Iron Wolf's replacement, but judging from the video, it doesn't look like it will be going where Iron Wolf is currently situated.)
**edited** Found out it'll be located in the County Fair section of the park where Splashwater Falls used to be and they'll also be taking out the antique cars for the ride. Three thousand feet long, that's going to take up a good chunk of the park. Wonder how they'll handle Fright Fest with this getting constructed.... (But what will they do with the area where Iron Wolf is?)
