I haven't been to Cedar Point since they built the mean streak. I rode it only once as the line was a mile long and we were in the baking sun. I'll probably not go back.
That's not a fun line to be in in the sun. :) I love wooden coasters and the Mean Streak was one of the best for me. It seemed to me Cedar Point gave up on the ride and let it sort of "go" -- I like rough rides but they allowed it to get really, really rough. That's just my opinion - - I have no facts to back it up.
I rode that sucka last year. It beat my poor old body so bad that it was my last roller coaster ride. What was nice was there was NO line . I guess no one wanted to get beat. I rode it back in it's early days and it wasn't so rough then.
I miss drive-ins too and that sign is the back of the movie screen (those aren't bushes, they're trees). My Mother & I used to work there. She was the cashier and I was one of the lot men (chase people out for coming through the exit/back gate or sneaking in in their trunk).
That's funny - - I must have picked up your aura - - I saw them as trees right away. But now that I know for sure, the sign that large and those colors and the design - - classy! :) I would have been afraid to have done your job.
