NYC Subways, The next best thing to riding roller coasters.

I heard the announcement in my house on the CP website in South Bend,IN at 5:01am.

It was on the TV news in Omaha

It was on the radio in Northern Michigan, which suprised me cause nobody from here that I have asked has actually been there. I go to college here so I am not originally from here.

I went to the website....at 5:01a.m. I live in the great small town of Polo, Missouri!

SFDL-The roller coaster capital of the world

Been all over the news/ radio here in Metro Detroit. Not really surprising considering how many of us go to The Park, but it's still nice to see.

Also, Chris (Majin Hero) gave me the heads up, and CNN Headline News did a piece on it around 3:30.
