Major announcement on Monday morning!
I can't remember a year in the past when there has been not one, but two areas of land in the park which are "ready for redevelopment" like there are this year (Challenge Park and Shoot the Rapids site). It seems like even if they did announce something like a better log flume to replace Shoot the Rapids, there will be an angry mob picketing at the Mean Streak entrance.

Remember when people were saying that CP is running out of space just a couple of years ago? Here we are now, with 3 possible locations for new rides.
CP Top 5: 1) Steel Vengeance 2) Maverick 3) Magnum 4) Raptor 5) Millennium
While I'm not one that thinks they're out of space. Pointing out that They did take rides out of these locations.
New for 2024- Wicked Twister Plus
STR was basically always empty space anyway.
2018- Raptor
CP Top 5- 1)MF 2) Maverick 3) Gatekeeper 4) Top Thrill Dragster 5) Raptor

If the announcement is that MS is permanently closing, I want dibs on first chainsaw. I can't wait to see that eyesore disappear.
Okay, I can agree that MS isn't the best ride ever, but it is not an eyesore. I personally think it's one of the most beautiful coasters at CP and has amazing photo opportunities.
1999: First visit
Halloweekends- Harvest Fear, Tombstone Terror-Tory
Ride Operations- Professor Delbert’s Frontier Fling
I have to agree. I think the ride looks really cool. I hope that they only convert it partially because i think it looks so cool in the back of the park.
Either way, I'm very interested to see what todays announcement is. Ive got my lucky underwear on and everything.

Uh... no, any ethical company doesn't give their customers crap. Stay off the speculation thread if you don't like hearing people voice their opinions.
In the opinion of some enthusiasts, Mean Streak is crap. Some enthusiasts also have specific cars and seats they will ride in on various coasters. Most people who visit parks and ride coasters are nowhere near as picky as enthusiasts.
And I don't get to express my opinion on a thread where people are voicing their opinions? Huh. Interesting.
I'm a Marxist, of the Groucho sort.
And now we wait to see what happens to it.
2018- Raptor
CP Top 5- 1)MF 2) Maverick 3) Gatekeeper 4) Top Thrill Dragster 5) Raptor
Guess folks voted with their feet, it's not just enthusiasts, the GP says Mean Streak sucked as well.
Closed topic.
