I notices it yesterday. I wonder if this is an attempt to somewhat alleviate seat checks to help hasten dispatching. Ha yea right I'm dreaming I know. I do remember in my younger years on Thunder Road the did really start checking seats til like the 90s...or maybe that was Coney Island Cyclone. Blurred memory, anyway all coasters could use this especially Intimidator, they've been awful the stacking this year.

^??? There was a point in your life when you didn't know what it was. People aren't born knowing everything about the roller coaster community.

Oh I don't doubt that. Gives you something else to whine about.

Back on topic, the front of the Fury train is being displayed at IAAPA.

Banshee-There was an insane coaster enthusiass that went on a social media rampage because everyone was asked to wear either Banshee shirts (that were freely given, IIRC), or solid color shirts with no logos from any other park (even from the same park chain). This guy always wears his Millennium Force shirt and went all Nazi online about not being allowed to wear it, and he bad mouthed KI pretty harshly, for being asked to wear a different shirt to an event he was invited to, an event that was meant to show off the park's new ride, not a ride at another park. It also didn't help that Notorious Idiot Robb Alvey

On the topic of Robb Alvey, I got chewed out by him after basically saying Intamin's are unreliable. Alvey felt the need to say that I know nothing about how the industry works and should basically shutup. I then posted saying that I have worked maintenance on roller coasters for 15 years at various parks and gave some examples of why I thought Intamin rides were unreliable, and he IP banned me and deleted all of the posts :lol:. Huge douche bag, I can now understand why so many parks hate his guts.
