^ You know, I wonder how deep that footer is, it could be too deep for getting rid of it to be worth it.

If that's the case, they'll probably simply grade it off to ground level and pave over the rest of it, leaving it underground and out of the way.

Speaking of Space Spiral. Someone put together a great documentary about the ride's history and really reminds you about how significant the ride was as it was the icon for the park for most of it's time before being forgotten about when rides like Millennium Force and Top Thrill Dragster came around.

^Very well done video. And the score from Apollo 13 can make anyone tear up.

I wish they would make Street Fighter Donkey.
