I think so, but then again looking at the flyover animation that road was only temporary anyway...as best as I could tell anyway.

Never even noticed the "newest" entrance road in the flyover until now! Looks like you're right about the old new one being temporary.

Revamped food menus with new executive chef and culinary team

Unknown - Removal of game stalls near Scream Weaver.

Perhaps the removal of the game stalls is for, yet, another 2015 surprise? If the surprise was coming in 2016, they'd have no reason to remove those stalls now. I think that there is something else in store :D

I'm trying to think of something that could fit there.

IMO, they should leave it open so its easier to get to Fury... unless they move an other ride around it... :lol:

I think Gauntlet would be a good fit in that area, if it was saved. Wasn't there also word of a stall for blue colored Fury ice cream with green poprocks or something like that?

Since Mike is actually teasing what will be there on twitter, I think it's probably something interesting at least.

Maybe they got a pair of Spin-U-Win and Strike-U-Up games to put there?

I think I remember hearing that we were going to get one of those Coke freestyle buildings like the one near Gatekeeper that got added when it was built. That could be going there, even thought that other coke structure is right next to it. And they are going to have to have somewhere to sell that Fury ice cream that they talked about. (I had some at the announcement, its very... different. I liked it, quite a bit :lol: ) This also brings me up to four predictions for things going in this spot. :P

Anyone know where I can get those front gate pdf files?
I'd like to take a look at them and can't find a link.

I wish they would pan camera 2 down just a little so we can see the bridge and the work going on in that part.

They are putting the (metal) roof on the restrooms today. The other building seems to be built like a mobile home, interesting.
