What ride do you hope never comes back?

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.

Xtreme Trampolines.

I'll second that, and I never even had to work them. I just heard the horror stories.

Demon drop, when it's gone, and once it's gone, I hope it never comes back!!! :)

The fish building that was next to the stadium, if that counts.

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.

Those are known as aquariums. Honestly, I miss it. Oceana forever!

I second the swan boats.

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.

Its path would be quite dangerous these days. :)


Brandon

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.

djDaemon's avatar

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.


Brandon

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

Only after it makes a stop at Midway Market.

I was waiting for that. :)

Mill Race---Thought it was quite boring, too short and the splashdown was pretty tame, especially when you could ride WWL which was much better...
