My friend noticed this Fathers Day. Rode today (June 27, 2010) and still no spiel.

Anyone know what happened to it?

I feel it is one of the cooler spiels in the park.

The Free Internet Dictionary wrote:spiel (spl, shpl) Informal
n.
A lengthy or extravagant speech or argument usually intended to persuade.
intr. & tr.v. spieled, spiel·ing, spiels

Is this what you meant by spiel? Because if it is, I can't think of any other coaster in the park that has one anyway.

There is one on a few coaster lift hills.

Has A Spiel
Flying Ace Aerial Chase
Thunder Road
Hurler - Most of the times you can't hear it as the speaker faces down to the queue.

Has Noise
After Burn (Jet Sounds)

Had a Spiel This Season
Intimidator

All others do not.

Most rides/attractions have some sort of spiel to tell safety guidelines prior to riding in the queue.

Actually, Flying Ace Aerial Chase really doesn't have a spiel. Or at least, it's not working.

Also, ALL rides have a spiel. Notice I said "...when they are working properly. Maybe the spiel just is in the station.

Due to safety guidelines and procedures, all rides at any Cedar Fair owned park have a spiel; so, with that being said, every ride and/or attraction, not "most", have a spiel.

(Lol. I know my spiels.)

You may have gotten the Woodstock Gliders mixed up with that.

If I am not mistaken Snoopy's Space Race does not have one. Thats just from my memory of what I hear when in line for the gliders.
