I like the new name, thankfully this park wil be saved. Medusa looks awesome and I've yet to ride it. Why can't there be more B&Ms with Sea Serpents?

Sounds kinda cool, yet it kinda reminds me of Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom and what used to be, Discovery Zone (Place like Chuck E Cheese's). I'll have to get used to SFDK instead of SFMW.

Any Six Flags park with a Beemer should stay. Except SFNO. It's just totally destroyed and shouldn't be rebuilt. Wait, scratch that, all of New Orleans shouldn't be re-built. It's just going to get destroyed again by the next Hurricane.

El Toro totally owns the Voyage!
