I found this website with a couple of cedar point videos including a Gemini and Magnum promo video.

That is pretty awesome. Magnum and Gemini were great, as were the others. After seeing Demon Drop, I feel the need to go on it again.

Nice find. Does anyone have the link to the website that had the Millennium Force, Raptor, and Mantis promotional videos?

If it's still there they did a good job at hiding it. I remember there being a link posted here that had at least one Millennium Force video, a Raptor one, and a really corny Mantis one.

Guide to the Point had it a long time ago.
My parents were telling me about that Demon Drop before. Great collection of history there.
Check out The Bat promo as well. The TV reporter sounds very scripted it's funny. It shows how much potential rides like Iron Dragon really had. *** Edited 2/8/2006 2:54:41 AM UTC by Gomez***

That site is a good find (although having to register to watch the videos was kind of annoying). The Millennium Force video mentioned above, along with a whole bunch of other ones, can be found here: http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun_online/video_dl.cfm

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun
I never knew Gemini was so mean!!!!!
HAHA
This was an awesome post. I love stuff like this.
Next time I ride Gemini I'll know its been waiting for me...
ALL WINTER LONG!!!!!!!!!!!!
I still wish someone had a copy of the "kid on the sled" commercial.
That was by far the BEST CP commercial ever.

Magnum still rocks.
Nice videos.
Does anyone know what the name of the song is in the "riding Dragster at night" video. The song that is playing for the first 15 seconds or so of it.
Thanks.
