The Lazer is a classic.  It was also my first looper.

My hope is that another local park, one where it would fit in better, buys it.

Does this mean Dorney is looking to expand and put something else in its place?

"Teen People" might be the better choice for him Dan.

If Dorney does in fact sell Lazer/Laser, I hope it stays somewhat local, or moves to Florida. We keep losing precious Anton coasters. I'm going to try to start taking advantage of the ones we have left. They seem under-appreciated.

If past is prologue, there is more than a little chance the coaster will end up in South America or even Asia...

While I loved Shockwave at SFOT, Laser was the least favorite Anton for me. It meant well...

My thinking is more along the lines of a park in the woods of Central PA.
