All things Knotts Berry Farm

The problem is national parks are packed mostly with Chinese tourists.

Not since Covid, it’s packed with Americans and Europeans mostly.

Mounted police fit the theme nicely. They should be in the park.

When Disney needs them for a brawl in Galaxy's Edge, I'm sure they will arrive on Banthas holding gaffi sticks. They will move single file to hide their numbers.

I'd imagine in Galaxy's Edge they let the fight play out because it wouldn't tie into WDIs storyline and immersion to have uniformed police show up.

Universal Orlando has just implemented a 9 PM weekend curfew for minors at Citywalk. They had a parking garage fight break out between groups of teenagers a few weeks ago. Now, after 9 on weekends, minors must have an adult chaperone to enter for any reason including going to the movie theaters.

Oh no, I guess Universal Orlando's business also will cripple as we know it!

It's the end of the world as we know it.

Ooo, just in time for HHN, I wonder what will happen there.

According to @Darkbeer it was suppose to be the entrance to the new gigi coaster they were planning for the backstage. That thank goodness isn't happening anymore. They do have it open during Scary Farm as a ghostbusters type show. Basically an 80s Steve Jobs type guy tries to reverse Global Cooling by unleashing a demon via human sacrifice. It was a pretty decent show using the pepper's ghost illusions.

Why do say thank goodness that they cancelled the Giga coaster? It would be a great addition to the park

Knott's needs more high capacity rides, not a rollercoaster that takes up a ton of space. Plus it would be a complete eyesore over Ghost Town.

It would have been built over the backstage area and seen throughout the park. Knotts is smarter than that and decided to upgrade areas that haven't been touched in years like the new pizza restaurant and the new festival village area.

Giga coasters are some of highest capacity attractions you can add.

Knott’s is not the right park for a Giga Coaster. It’s the only park in Cedar Fair’s chain that is beloved for its extraordinary Old West theming (Better than Disney in some areas) and actual western history. It needs to double down on what makes it unique, and add more attractions that every age group can enjoy together. And theme the Boardwalk area.

I'd love to see Knott's add a dark ride based on the haunted shack. Sure it won't be the Haunted Mansion but it could come close.

BUT, even if Knott's has a ride capable of high capacity, would they run it that way? My limited experience puts that in doubt.
