Welcome aboard! :hello:

I've been hearing the rumors as well and I would recommend not believing any of them until you see something happening.

I'm going to move this one to the rumor forum but I would like to hear everything that you've heard though.

Short answer: No

Long answer: We were supposed to get Goliath this past season, but it instead went to SFoG and we got BBNP and STOP, which I would actually rather have then Goliath as the park needed this new kids area really bad.  Back to Goliath... It was to run over the entrance road to the toll plaza and circle the lake out by the picnic area. 

As far as it coming back -- well the plans were made once, they could easily do it again.

It would be nice but I don't see it happening.

The focus is on family.

didn't six flags say they would be doing no new coasters for awhile?

While you should look around once in awhile it is ALWAYS better from the top of a coaste

They did but that won't stop the rumor mill though.  I spotted the juicy gossip over at SFStL.net

I'm Back!!!!  I have been extremely busy here lately, so look forward to taking some pictures and getting more added to the Site.  I will be going Saturday the 13th and hopefully they will have some more done to the Tower. 

Hmmm.  I sure as heck hope so!  We lack in that one area two Coasters are needed to compete with SDC/CC, WOF, SFGAM, HW, and KK. We need a Hyper and a Spinning Mouse!  PERIOD!!  Will we I am keeping my hopes, UP and I wil be  :BangHead: til then! 

Allthough KK is a small park, Chang is a decent Standup and a well put together small park, STL needs that liitle extra push for the full family experience. 

STL needs to get buildings back in shape, and untill that happens, Our chances are good and with the Home Depot partnership should help a few parks out in that department.  But till the parks start looking like the Magic in Shapiros eyes that is the Goal., I dont look for too many SF parks to get much in 2007, Shapiro's goal this year will be pay debts, and improve on the experience.  Some areas that is working, the whole picture needs to pull together and then Coasters will come, Chances are still good, for parks that will continue in the SF tradition, the chopping block is not done for Shapiro.  Thats the first thing that will happen, the next will be Award Winning Coasters will be then handed out or moved around!  We shall see!

They've been sayin that since I was a member there and that was back in September. This is a very popular rumor and everyone is willing to believe anything if it means they're getting a new coaster.
