jglonek's note:
This was originally posted yesterday in the Chit Chat forum but I thought it was big enough news to move to the main page. Houdini opening again! Who would have thought?! I was sure that ride was gone for good. But this is great news.

Yes I noticed both of these yesterday in the park . As well as King Da ka running all 4 trains , nitro running 3 and Bizarro running 3 it was a great day in the park. Rolling thunder was also running 4 trains believe it or not but it is all true . NOW WHY does this not happen in the summer

But alot of people haven't ridden it in a while and it they brought it back with all the props, then its a good ride.

kingdakafan · « **Reply #10 on:** September 20, 2009, 08:01:58 PM »

i guess.

WadeJ · « **Reply #11 on:** September 20, 2009, 08:18:29 PM »

And nobody noticed my insanely obvious houdini hint in a thread last week lol. Yes, this is good news

. And the park really needs this additional capacity for fright fest!

Better a ride get boring after a while than a ride that was boring in the first place. Like Superman

Just like all of the coasters at the park.

Houdini is a gem of a ride. I have a reason to go back to the park now.

Yeah Matt, that was the one LOL. I was thinking somebody would pick up on the

after my post. Plus, I assumed you had known at the time lol

B-mac · « **Reply #21 on:** September 21, 2009, 04:03:25 PM »

Why do you want to be a houdini poster again?

darkridedan · « **Reply #22 on:** September 21, 2009, 06:21:11 PM »

I made a comment that I wanted to stop posting once I reached my favorite ride at GA. Matt thinks his favorite is Houdini, even tho I know it's El Toro.

AV Matt · « **Reply #23 on:** September 21, 2009, 07:26:02 PM »

LOL Dan!

Houdini is a cool, overlooked ride. It's worthy of my support.

Everyone else can be The coasters. I want Houdini.

coastersue · « **Reply #24 on:** September 22, 2009, 06:48:56 AM »

That is awesome news about Houdini! Now there's definitely no reason to go to SFNE. They ruined SROS/Bizarro big time and now our own Houdini is back open again.
