New Maverick Commercial

While watching the Indians game tonight, 7/23/07, I saw a new Maverick commercial that uses actual footage. Another thing that I found interesting is that there is clearly footage of riders with their "arms up", and not in the Cedar Fair-esque down position. Also, saw some discount coupon posters at my local Taco Bell, and riders on Maverick also had their arms up while the picture of MF had the riders holding on. Anybody else see this commercial yet? Has CF changed their "hold on" policy?

I just saw the commercial flipping through channels. I noticed the arms up to but have no clue if they changed the policy.

i saw it too.

i think i hear my friend being interviewd

Shoot, live in buffalo, if anyone could find it online or record it that would be awesome!

Awesome!

Saw it also during the Indians game. It looks awesome! Good job CP!!

That's an awesome comercial! Go CP!

So wait, your not allowed to put your arms up on any coaster?

^You're not supposed to. They usually say to keep your arms down and inside the car at all times.

^^ - no. You must keep you arms inside the train at all times, extending them upwards puts them outside the train, and IF you were to hit your hand on something and injure yourself, the park would not be liable (see the Ohio Revised Code posted at each ride).

This is rarely enforced, and since the coasters are all run with the template to ensure clearance around the train you'd be find unless you had orangutan arms.

That's so dumb, John. Orangutans may have longer arms, but their torso is shorter, so they'd totally not hit their arms on anything. Jeez.

Someone with a human body and orangutan arms might be able to touch the tunnels from the rides.

I've touched the above track on CCMR at the first major drop. Didn't hurt, just surprised me.

whats CCMR Vince?

Cedar Creek Mine Ride.

Does anyone have a link to this new commercial?

I don't like the guy they cast as Maverick in the commercial. They should have used Kenton.

Saw it tonight during Big Brother 8 and loved it!! Great commercial CP!

Maybe they wanted it to look like people were actually having fun in the commercials? ;)
