RE: My Memories of the Mean Streak Roller Coaster at Cedar Point

in #rollercoaster7 years ago

Always sad to see a piece of history disappear, good or bad. Especially if its replaced by something worthless. I found Steel Vengeance to be an acceptable sequel to mean streak so it doesn't make me too sad to see a classic woodie like that go.

Sort:  

I'm glad to see the Mean Streak revamped and improved. If they got rid of all that wood, a very iconic coaster would be missing from the point.

It definitely still leaves a mark on their skyline.

I am hopeful that Zingo will go up again. They were VERY careful taking it down, and labeled everything to go back up. Lots of video, and still pictures, with heavy measurements on the foundation. I would buy 80 acres out in the country by a small town.

The small town can include a paragraph in the surrounding land that they know and accept the local coaster noise. :) So I am hopeful!

Man you tell me we got a coaster going up in the area I'd be happy as can be about that!

Well, Bells is still looking for a good place, but they were careful bringing it down; and they say they intend to re-assemble it! Easy to stay close, yet dump Tulsa county! I would look at Inola, Owasso, Claremore, and Mannford. Still close enough to draw a crowd... :)
