      😂 Last new one was almost 6 years ago (2018), and before that it was 10 years ('07 & '08) Pony express & Sierra Sidewinder. Not sure if you'd consider Pony Express a coaster...
      So, new coaster every 10 years? 2027/2028 here we come! It'll be Cedar Fairs' 30th year anniversary of owning Knott's & 2028 Olympics in LA, here's hoping for something big!! 🤞

    I'm guessing Xcelerator will be breaking down pretty often in the first weeks and then it might be a bit more reliable

    Hopefully with the merger it’ll be better maintained so it doesn’t break down as often. I wonder how it’ll effect wait times on other rides like ghostrider.
    I also hope it isn’t too long until Montezuma’s revenge is back up and running

      😂 😂 Dude, prepandemic, that's where the rumored Giga was supposed to go, now it's Grimore for Haunt 2 months per year. What a way to maximize your land when you're landlocked. Positively speaking, who knows what the future holds!!!
      At least knott's has new food offerings every 4 months... That's what everyone wants apparently. Not me.

      @@tahjo7 There's a fair amount of space back there. I never thought it was realistic for Knott's to get a Giga but a good dark ride in that building would be cool. As far a coasters I always thought doing smaller stuff like a Hyper GTX or bringing back the Soap Box Derby Racers would be a better idea.

    Seeing ALL of the excitement and enthusiasm from Knotts' under appreciated Thrill Rider enthusiast crowd, was refreshing & heart-warming.
    Its nice to see people get excited for more than just "new food items", we want rides, it's been far too long.
    I spoke with one of the Knotts managers at Xcelerator, and they agreed that 10 years of focused refurbs (2013-2023) is and has been just a bit too long. Yes we got 1 big new ride during that stretch (2018 Hangtime), but that wasn't enough.
    I don't think Cedar Fair knows what they have, as Knott's hasn't reached it FULL potential.
    Xcelerator getting reopened definitely takes a little bit of pressure off of Knott's as more and more rides remain closed, with no communication or transparency about the future.
    I just wanna know what's going on, honestly, is that too much to ask.

    It’s completely worth it to buy the annual Fastlane if you go more than a couple of times a month to knotts, it makes the park so much more fun, it’s $675 for the year, but so worth it!

      It's 999 for ALL cedair fair parks. I hear you tho. I only get fast lanes when I travel far IF NEEDED. Always needed: cedar point.
      If you're smart and pick your days/time carefully you won't need:
      carrowinds, kings island, kings dominion. Walk on, on everythjng. Knotts does get crowded but I'm a local...
