I'm unsure if CW requires lockers for its Giga, but I do know that many coasters in general at CP and KI require lockers. Heck, even Banshee will not allow fanny packs! With Carowinds not requiring any lockers for any rides (which is pretty cool), I'm curious if that will change on this giga.

Okay...

1. Its raising awareness for ALS, a very commendable thing.
2. No one has to do anything. This isn't Nazi Germany.
3. No one even knows if that's what they'll be doing for sure.
4. Chill out. (pun intended)

I'm glad Cedar Fair is using the Ice Bucket Challenge to get a bit of FREE "Viral" ( :shifty: ) advertising, while also helping raise funds and awareness for ALS. Kudos! :thumbup:

Odds are if it's up and running, they'll let people ride it, regardless of if they dump ice water on themselves, or not.

The going trend for CF is for binless stations. It saves chaos in the station and increases capacity. I think it is a very good possibility we will see this same policy for the new coaster.

Also, maybe there will be a separate load/unload station here; that hasn't been confirmed or refuted.

Why not! They are only revealing the biggest announcement in the history of carowinds :lol:
