 Righty, so this is gonna be a really quick video because I've already made a video on this actually I don't remember when a while ago. There's a video about what see your fairs doing with removing older attractions But as many of you know the crypt over at Kings Dominion had was announced that it's gonna be removed or retired And it won't be returning for the 2020 season And it's another park that were just removed volcano and if you look at Kings Island They're removing stuff left right and center as well and a lot of people are questioning What does this mean? Well for those of you that have been keeping up with cedar fairs stockholders calls the conversations that cedar fair Or park representatives have at ace events and stuff like that Cedar fairs kind of in this like time period where they were moving older attractions that have a high cost Low ridership number so for you those of you that don't know what that could mean a high cost would be high maintenance costs having to order parts frequently and Just having to replace anything to do with the ride or staffing And then the ridership numbers is how many people are riding it throughout the year So for those of you that don't know a lot of theme parks, especially city fair They keep track of the riderships of all their rides So what they do is they take those two numbers does a ride have a really high maintenance cost And does a ride have a low ridership number? And if those two come into equation, they're gonna end up removing the ride I know I'm using random footage on the screen This is just something I wanted to make quickly because my DMs are blowing up on amusement insiders Instagram page Asking me what I think about this and it's just a for me I get that a lot of people don't like watch the business world or keep up with the business world This is old news. We already knew this was gonna happen. Nothing that Cedar fair is announcing is shocking me not even vortex going I'm a little shocked that Wonderland isn't removing more attractions to be honest. I'd be surprised I if Wonderland doesn't remove something in the next like year or two I mean, I wouldn't even be fully shocked if we come in next season and something's missing to be honest as we learned with orbiter the park doesn't really announce flat rides being removed unless They're kind of forced into announcing it because with orbiter It was one of those things where I actually reached out to the park and I was like, hey and the footage this is being removed Is it okay if I post it and they were like, yeah, yeah, sure. Go ahead. Yeah, it's being removed blah, blah, blah It was all along those lines So Cedar fair is definitely removing attractions again with a high maintenance cost and low ridership numbers. That's all that's happening And of course, you're gonna see things being replaced. No kings dominion or kings island aren't going anywhere Um, I know in question kings island, but I just threw that in there People are being like, well, they keep removing stuff from kings dominion Well, kings dominion has gotten amazing attractions and they have another one coming up in 2021 And that's just gonna be the case older attractions go newer attractions come in and cedar fair is definitely working on the beautifying their parks. Yes. I made that word up Um, just making their parks more beautiful and this is what happens when you do that things are gonna get removed Anyways, I wanted to make this video really quickly to calm some people down. This is normal This is gonna continue to happen So I'd I'd expect a lot more announcements over the next couple years at more parks and Possibly even the same parks of rides being removed. Anyways Comment down below what you guys think could be some of the next rides to leave any of the cedar fair parks I'd be curious to think what you guys or know what you guys are thinking. Um, and yeah, I hope you enjoyed this video Don't forget to leave a like comment and uh, subscribe if you haven't have a good one guys. Bye
