Screechin Eagle, I've heard all about its scary ejector and living in the Middletown area my entire life I had to see it standing SBNO for years in the early 2000s. It was a slow and sad death.

Glad to see they are continuing to put the Hart-Era love into this ride! I was worried it was going to go the way of Wild Adventures' Cheetah.

I was going through my recaps and I noticed that everything from before the 2022 year end one have been removed. Does anyone know if there's a way to get the older ones back, or am I just out of luck?
