  1. I would think more on the Holoptic image. Back in the day of Classic Video Gaming, Rick Dryer (Dragons Lair Project) Invented a new concept in Video Gaming experience with the parabolic mirror which would create a Holographic image to the viewer, The mirror would reflect the image from a monitor, and you get an awsome effect. I remember this game dearly, and had lots of fun and wasted lots of quarters playing. They could easily pull this off, with a larger parabolic mirror and High definition monitors. Here is a link to some video of the game. http://www.dragons-lair-project.com/games/materials/audiovideo/tt.asp Check it out, it is very cool how it is done. From www.klov.com Killer list of Video games.
  2. I had read over at Screamscape that The ride was being repainted and rethemed to Superman: Tower of Power like St. Louis. I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of the painting of the tower. I believe the ride before was properly named and had an awsome paint job on the tower before, When they changed St. Louis from Acraphobia, paint theme and a full paint job at that before it went up and then repainted to a Superman. It does look nice but actually like the original green,blue,orange color scheme. If anyone has any of the new paint going up on KK, I would love to see.
  3. I caught it this morning before noon. The Sky Coaster bit was hillarious I thought myself. The coolest part of the show at PKI was as they would play the games and win the BIG toys. They would walk around and give them to kids that did not have any! That there alone won my respect for Rob and Big! My hats off to them for what they did. Did anyone catch the Hookshot that Rob did from about 30-40 feet from the goal, again giving the prize to a little kid. Just great!
  4. WOW, the last day at the park and they wanted to get rid of a few remaining snacks for the public at the park! A few other frights were in store, and The Freeze was operating sides in the evening. But on to the topic at hand! Yummy, Hissing Cockroaches! Have a couple of .avi files but does not want to download, I'll try again later! 40 second files of my oldest and me and my youngest eating one in a race! He won and is nine years old, they gave the youngest ones smaller ones or the smallest they had, his was about an inch and a half, an mine about 2 and a half inches. Imagine a Peanut shell filled with room tempature cream cheese, flavored with some hot onion with a little garlic! VERY crunchy! Afraido if you put the mouth in first he could bite the back of your tounge, and if you put him in Butt first, hell squish and shoot the inards down your throat! It wasnt that bad, was crunchy though. Warmed your stomach up after eating! And in about 3 minutes we had 3 exit passes for the freeze front row, Boss, and The Boneyard Haunted Hayride. Well Eat it or deal with him, and he's pissed your eating his little Tofu eating snacks. Sign the release POPS, I am not allergic to shell fish, so I can partake and take the video so I can tell Grandma and gross her out! Even "Lucy cant believe it!!!" Lots of SICK people, wanting to watch some disgusting idiots get a Exit pass for 3 friends ! COOL You puke it up, I'll take care of ya, Paramedic for the evening. Just kidding! I have a gorilla thats hungry! Spin the wheel and you might get a Extra large, Large, medium or small Hisser!This was a Large! Sorry Ellisa not McD's! Concessions are OPEN And the Chef opens his Consessions for all to "ENJOY the COCKAROACH" Here is the Chef's helper, with the snack of the day!
  5. Days inn is not really walking distance, about a mile and a half from the park. They will be the cheapest, Holiday Inn is right next to the park though and is walking distance to the park.
  6. If you know where the Cool Zone is next to DC comics plaza next to the DC Comics Gift Shop where Freeze and Ghostblasters is in the DC plaza. The cool zone is where the Soda machines are , and the cool mist spraying. There used to be an open hut there at that spot across from Injun Joes cave at the time. This is where this booth was located. Ive been going since the park opened, my grandparents would take me, I enjoyed injun joes cave and was probably my favorite.
  7. For some reason the pictures are not coming up on mine. just the pictures names. There are to be two pictures. Do you see them.
  8. Made ya look!!!! Happy Halloween! Trick or Treat! But for those history buffs, the slab of concrete that the dummy is sitting on was once a footing for the Sky Way of SFOMA now SFSTL.
  9. I dont remember the year but thought I would share a rare booth pic of SFSTL in the old days. This one is obviously King Kong, and I believe was 1977 around 10 years old.. 9 or 10 years old, just cant remember the year,
  10. http://sixflagsstlouis.net/galleries/historic_photos.htm There you will find some old pics of the park also. Here is one from the site of the tank when being built and dive show. Go visit their site, they have one of the animatronic injun joe from the dark ride in the 70's now Sally's Sccoby Doo Ghostblasters. The tank looks a little wider here. The tank looks small here, even with the guy standing in the middle.
  11. ??? How do you figure cheaper. 69 miles from philly and still about an 1.5 hour drive The same time. Southwest does not fly out of ATL and again connection hell for the cheap rates, you wanna get there or take the risk of layover. More flights in to EWR than PHL out of ATL. Does not matter, Its going to cost money however they plan.
