Great America SOLD

Cedar Fair has agreed to sell Great America to the 49ers and JMA Ventures, for $70 million. Read more here.

The article did note that "the Drop Zone and the Demon rides aren't going anywhere," so shelve those Demon removal rumors for now.

I don't know what to make of this yet. Could be great for the park, but also very, very bad.

Rumor: Demon next to go?

Take this with a grain of salt, folks: On a recent Youtube video that CGA posted, a user who supposedly works for a local demolition company wrote a comment, claiming that the park has been gathering estimates for a potential demolition of the Demon.

As always, this could be a troll looking for attention, and have no basis in fact whatsoever.

Read the user's comments on this video:
