^ That and last year all the parks announced their new attractions on the same date with the exception of the international parks (La Ronde and SFM).

Yes, I knew all of this, I was just wondering if the park itself had said anything about the announcement. It looks like it hasn't, strangely.

The multi-announcement last year was pretty epic imo. I would love to see that again. It seems as though neither of the parks rumoured to be getting actual "coasters" next year (SFMM,SFFT) have weighed in on the August 30th date yet.

Are there any other parks in the chain hinting at a coaster addition?

^ I'm pretty sure SFOT hinted at a coaster on their Facebook page.

I heard from sources it was going to be an Intamin. They could have just said B&M at the Q&A to throw people off.

^From my understanding they said it wasn't a B&M at the Q&A , I also don't think anyone ever thought it would be B&M since it has been rumored from day one that it would be a launched coaster with possibly a record breaking inversion. Unless it was a B&M first (incredible hulks launch is not B&M) it has always been assumed to be Intamin or Premier since they are two of the major launch coaster manufacturers.

I believe it will in fact be an Intamin but just b/c I do watch it turn out to be a Premier ;)

I know for a fact that SFGAdv is announcing on 8/30, was told specifically by park reps when they came out to meet us when we were at the park a few weeks ago.

So I'd assume it's a corporate wide announcement.

It should be a big week for CA coasters next week!
8/27 - SCBB coaster announcement
8/29 - CGA coaster announcement
8/30 - SFMM coaster announcement
9/3? - KBF possible coaster anouncement

I'm so excited, I have my fingers crossed for Intamin on these projects (except CGA).

^ Sadly, I don't think any of those are going to be Intamin. I REALLY hope I'm wrong...
