I just caught the end of a CP commercial on CW50 (watching Sunday morning cartoons with my son :) ). I'm not sure if it was from last year or not, but it was more up beat. It was a "Ride On!" commercial, and it showed the coasters and it said something like 17/75 are coasters or something like that at the end of it. So if it's not from last year then I guess CP knew what they were doing. Put the family commercial up first, and then once the park is open for a week or so bring in the new up beat commercial for the coaster lovers.
"You wanna, you gotta, you hafta hold on, Cedar Point...HOLD ON!"
I saw a longer commercial, based on the same song, on Extreme Home Makeover last night that advertised CP as a family vacation place. Showed all the resorts and the marina in addition to the rides. I thought it was very successful in promoting CP as a place to take your vacation.
I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

Yeah, I don't understand why they do that.
They are trying to make Cedar Point more family-oriented so that more kids can come to cedar point and that means more money for the parents to spend which means more demon children running around cp screaming for snoopy.
ask me for my facebook.

I saw that one minute long commercial this week, along with the 30 second Maverick commercial and the 30 second roller coaster commercial. First, I will say that I am very happy that CP is advertising in Indianapolis, IN (5 hours away from the park). Last year I saw maybe one commercial the whole year. I thought that the long one was by far the best one. It advertised for the coasters, kid areas, soak city, and the resorts. Now we are getting ads for CP, Kings Island, and Holiday World. (Ironically not from Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom, the closest park to Indianapolis.)
