As a counterpoint to the other topic on the forum, what rides that have been banished from the Point do you hope never return? Top of my list: the Hollywood wax museum - creepy.
Also, Disaster Transport - oops, its still there.
White Water Landing. The park was not gentle in demolishing it, and I think even if they did put it back together it wouldn't be safe in the least.

I'll second that, and I never even had to work them. I just heard the horror stories.
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'd have to go with Frontier Lift. That would be an absolutely suicidal ride now.

I think the first ride I would like to not come back would be rotor. Stupid me would always try to lift my head off the side and I would give myself a headache. My second would be the sea swing. My legs would always hang down too far and sometimes the rope wouldn't be tight enough and I would fall out . Than next thing you know you're getting laughed at by the beachgoers.

The fish building that was next to the stadium, if that counts.
Those are known as aquariums. Honestly, I miss it. Oceana forever!

What's wrong with the Frontier Lift? I worked it in 1981 and it was a very safe ride. It was extremely rare there were any issues with it back then.

Iron Dragon, Mantis and Millenium Force all cross it path now. If there is a way to bring it back without interferring with those coasters I'm all for it.
Pretty sure that has been discussed, and without using some rather complicated technology to maneuver the path around them, it would be almost impossible, technically speaking, to snake the lift through those rides.

Can a tank drive through Mean Streak this off season, so it can then be knocked down and never come back?
