At this point I'll take anything to replace Twister. Never enjoyed it even when it first opened back in 98.

Especially after Sandy hit New York City and greatly destroyed major parts of it.

The Sharknado idea is actually pretty good.

With all the shark craze for Shark Week and Sharknado, a new shark ride would be a good idea.

Not sure what will help Twister, they should just take it out and put something else in it's spot. There's never even a line for it anymore.

Hmmm a shark ride...what would be a good theme?

I also would like to know this. Is anything changing or is it just a fresh coat of paint?

Do we know if this is just going to be a quick shut-down for a week or two, or is it going to be a longer project? Any ideas when it's going to happen? Huge Twister fan here...hate to miss it in a month when I'm there!

Well, it's certainly about time they give it some TLC- yesterday the flying sign and the fire (and I probably missed some other things, too) still weren't working :down:
