Extended Closure

JUnderhill:

There’s people at TT2 this morning wandering around the trains with clipboards. They are way too clean to be any type of maintenance worker so they’ve got to be supervision or engineers!

What color shirts are they wearing tho? 🤣

Black polo shirts and I couldn’t tell if there was a logo or not. Sorry lol

Wait until the Iron guy enters the fray.

He was incapacitated when the electro-magnets were energized. The aluminum guy then won the battle.

I’m not concerned that important people are wandering around the trains. I’m concerned that they’re carrying clipboards. 😜

Wood Man just entered the conversation!

Nothing is a match for…

Chicken Tender Man!

Those look hand breaded. YUMMY!

So, I just got home from CP, as I walked past TTD2 I did indeed notice some activity around the trains. It seems as though they were removing a certain part from the wheel assembly. I describe it as about 1 to 2 inches long with beedy eyeball-like protrusions on the front, long thin tentacles off the back, sticky feet to allow it to adhere. I was able to actually snap a picture and will post it here, as many on this site are indeed self-described experts in mechanical functions related to rolly-coasters. Can it be that the removal of this is the remedy thrill seekers have been wishing for?

You heard it here first- TT2's inaugural year thus far has been... buggy.

I’m not really into gaming, so I’m not sure if this relates to my post or not.

The park can’t keep camels in their pen. How do they possibly think they can get TT2 up and running?

To be fair, isn't the Petting Zoo run by an outside group?

^ I believe the animals do belong to an outside group. But it is staffed by Cedar Point employees. My roommate’s girlfriend worked Pet Check/ Petting Zoo in 2002. Also, when I worked in Challenge Park, one of my coworkers split his time between the tracks and the petting zoo.

The animals belong to Honey Hill Farms, and it sounds like someone let them out, they didn't just escape.

A saboteur! Who is behind this Camelgate? An Intamin activist? PETA? Sea World Parks (see, it's not just us!)? We need to get to the bottom of this.

Well, Kevin has been there this week...

You can check the tapes. At our around the time of the "escape", my wife and I were in Hugo's grabbing some pizza for the hotel room.

Then again, while we were doing that our girls claimed they were off to get one last ride on Raptor before we left the park. They emerged from the exit suspiciously later than anticipated, concocting some kind of story about a "delay in operations" while they were in the station. These two also made some bold ideas at younger ages about wanting to free the animals.

Time to start asking questions.

I had left long before the camel escape I swear!

Camel to the other camel- "Baby, I'm ready to go?"
