Fox is being very selfish putting the World Cup on a streaming service nobody has. Looks like we’re learning Spanish on Peacock this summer

Just noticed that on the Jungle-X map, there’s an Anaconda coming out of the lake where the coaster once stood

Every time I come to @KingsDominionVA , Pantherian creeps further and further up my list. Just an all time coaster

Wife’s family is visiting DC from out of town and the cousins wanted to go to KD. FINE, I guess I’ll take off work and take them, UGH

Never imagined that this day 3 years ago might have been my one and only chance to ride Leap the Dips. In hindsight, I should have gotten more than 3 rides, but we’re traveling through PA enough that I didn’t think anything of it at the time

I’m having my students create a theme park from the ground up for their final project this year. Community poll: what manufacturer do we think built this student’s coaster?

I’m getting Arrow vibes from the track but the supports are throwing me off

After my construction tour, I just kept repeating how the scale of Project Purple does not come through well in photos. That is a whole ass roller coaster to the left, completely dwarfed by one inverted stall

Sad day.. Lost Continent was hands down my favorite area in OG Islands. While it stands as a shell of its former self, I still loved visiting on every trip.
🚨 Universal finally confirmed major Lost Continent changes at Islands of Adventure… and Mythos will officially close in 2027 😳 Excited for the future, but this one hurts. What replaces Lost Continent? 👀 #UniversalOrlando #IslandsOfAdventure #Mythos

I like how they are revamping everything on Verbolten, but I’m not sure how I feel about the car. I know theres “more” thematic elements now, but the old version looked more realistic. Hoping some aging work has yet to be done, make it feel less shiny and plastic

Talking with my wife this morning about why Busch Gardens feels so much like home to us. Last night we stopped in for 3 hours. Had a beer, had a snack, rode 1 ride (not due to lines, it was quiet), and just walked. Left completely content because we just like spending time there

90% of parks I measure a successful day by how much I did, but at BGW we measure a successful day by how much we vibed. I guess that’s what makes it your home park
