Good minds think alike, we  just both thought the same idea, that's all! But, please don't change name it's really fine. Seeing a group started agianst Cedar Fair just makes me feel good inside. Hey RideOps90's, do you think you know anyone with a video camera, it would be nice to see somebody do what this person did. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pqiH9Sgyqf0&feature=related _________________ (ACFG)Anti-Cedar Fair Group

I have one. But with security being so tight the only shots we would get would be from outside. There is more to that park than just man power security. there are cameras everywhere.  I seen alot of camcorders on auction day. I wonder where all those videos are. _________________ Remember......Fan Boys and Haters are always good for one thing. A one sided argument. Which are you?

So i doudt that they have them on but they probably have tight security to keep their secret plan to destroy the Big Dipper!

Good views of that are from Main Gate or other side on depot rd. I walked right up to main gate 2 days ago, no problems. I don't think they would say anything as long as you don't jump the fence. I stuck my disposable camera threw the fence to get better shot's of Head spin and other areas of park, just like you did!

There are dumb asses getting busted all the time trying to go in. We sell maintanence parts to WWK they moniter the cameras in the security shed in the back. The best camera in the park is on the Sky Scraper. 360 panaramic. As far as camcorder shots of the dismantling i'll have to see what I can do. My boss has been nice enough to let me go shoot pictures. I don't want to press my luck. _________________ Remember......Fan Boys and Haters are always good for one thing. A one sided argument.

The funny thing is alot of people on this forum are asking if they are showing respect while tearing the coasters apart. These demolition guys could care less. they are there to do a job and do it as quick but as safe as possible. More than likely Villain will be torn apart same as the DL was. They are already removing rails and track. once that is done I think they will remove all the non scrappable wood and start tearing away. _________________ Remember......Fan Boys and Haters are always good for one thing.

I don't see it in those photos. _________________ On September 21, 2007, a historic 119-year old amusement park had been secretly murdered. Never forget it.

I guess my inital shock wore off after the auction, but this is still painful to see. My Arrows are disappearing. Thanks to YouTube and NoLimits it will always be open. So did anyone find out if that awesome sign was saved? I emailed Cleveland Steel to find out....no reply yet. I figured if anyone knew what was saved, they would. It was one of the cooler signs in the park. _________________ Thanks to YouTube, Geauga Lake will always be open
