I agree, because while it is fun, I just do it when there isn't a coaster i haven't marathoned nearby. it's sorta a break from the thrills to me.

Add me to the list who likes PvZ, for all the reasons previously mentioned.

Yes, it is kind of out in the middle of nowhere, but that section of the park has yet to be redone. In due time we should see some work to that area, and most likely tied into the dinos area. (soon to be former dinos area)

PvsZ to me could be helped by just having other theme variants... it is an intro video outside and video board inside.
Why not have 2-5 or however many other themes/skins in video form. Just rotate them (hourly, weekly, whatever) and that would give a new face for cost of basically video work.
If you want to put a few decor items next to the already existing PvsZ stuff go for it, have all themes represented...

Rename it To something more generic

For a family attraction it has a pretty high height requirement though...pretty much only getting those 7 years and up. And the few times I've ridden its been 2/3 empty.

I don’t understand why the workers don’t try to balance the numbers to each side.
They tell you to go all the way down, so if the ride is 1/3 full one side is guaranteed to win because only a handful are going to be on the other side.
To be fair this is a minor complaint, but I am allowed it... #waaaaawaaaa

They always do this, whenever I've been in there with only a few people. Any imbalance is typically because kids have already decided what side they wanted to be on, and dont want to move.

Hard pass

In all seriousness, I say just bulldoze the stupid thing. No amount of new trains can fix it’s bland and short layout. As for 2020 as a whole, I think it’s safe to assume we’ll see one particular area of the get a facelift. Fingers crossed it’s crossroads

The Vortex plot of land would be the perfect size for a Raptor coaster. They seem low capacity but when I rode Wonder Woman the line was really moving. And that was Six Flags operations. I'm sure it would be even better at Carowinds.

A small innovative coaster would be great for the vortex plot. Busch Gardens is going all Sky Rocket 2 with limited space and seems to have worked out fine
