The First Lucky Few

Postby Jonathan » Sun Feb 21, 2010 2:21 am

User Mountain3307 brings us a photo that confirms reports on the boards at the end of this week.

Image


For the last few weeks Intimidator has been testing constantly, eventually getting all three trains operating on the track at once. Now the first lucky riders have taken a trip along Intimidator's 5,316 feet of track, and we can only speculate on their experience. The people you are seeing are likely members of the construction crews that built the ride, and perhaps park officials. It is only fitting that the men and women who assembled this mammoth structure get to be the first to enjoy the results of their efforts.

In just a little over one month, the rest of us will get to join in on the fun.

Could this maybe be the filming of the commercial? If not, it's probably gonna be happening soon.

I doubt it, simply becaise it appears the entire train wasn't filled. For the commercial, they would want a person in every seat.
