I was joking.... :P but about kk's logos. People would pick at them and peel them. They were in pretty bad shape so i'm pretty sure thats the reason.

Awesome update, very wierd and suspicious that those footers are there. My guess is that RT may be getting some slight rehab done, but I doubt it. You never know, they may just be extra parts to be used as replacements if SF needs it.

As for the footers, perhaps they are just left over from Toro?

Beyond the Staples Center you can see America,
With its tired, poor, avenging disgrace,
Peaceful, loving youth against the brutality,
Of plastic existence.

Great pics GA. CC seemed to be one great event.

As for the Mets reunion, my friend spent about an hour and a half there on Saturday. So it definitely seemed to be crowded. My friend was a little disappointed that he couldn't get a ball signed by Mookie Wilson for father's day (His dad caught the ball hit by him way back when). However, I understand why they wouldn't let him sign it (cougheBaycough). They only signed these boards they were giving out...

Riptide opened later in the day. I know because I rode it! It's a great ride if you don't want to get that wet...

Those "Driving Force" ads are ALL over Nitro's queue line. I was surprised to see so many!

On a last note, we didn't know what was up with the Dunkin Donuts truck. We walked by twice during the day and they didn't have any out. Strange, I guess they were making them inside the truck and they took a while to make?
