I just mean for it's location, no the name doesn't fit. But looking at just the ride it makes sense. I have no problem with the name, but since when does Six Flags name rides according to their locations in the park? (Medusa in Frontier Adventures, Then Bizarro for example)

they should have named it flying fish since it is right by the stream

Then they would just be copying Story land in Glen NH

Yeah Alice in Wonderland is in Fest Area, most of which has a German theme. Technically the Sky Ride also is in Fest Area, and that has a weird palace themed station.

And flying fish could've worked as well. Really I guess they are limited as far as names go if they are trying to theme the ride at all.

Fest Area in my mind is basically everything left over. Isn't Raging River, the ferris wheel and the Comet all considered in this "Fest Area" ?

Basically anything that is not Splashwater Kingdom on that side of the river is Fest Area, but the themed parts really only applies to some of the buildings like the Bavarian Palace, Fest Haus, Some of the shops, Alpine Bobsled, and maybe a few other places, thats about it.

So back to the Scooters. I'm sure the families are going to eat this ride up. and the bonus is with so many families at the park the line will move faster then at some parks.

hopefully the first couple weeks it is open it is a people eater because it is new to get some stress off of the other lines. we really cant complain about lines tho because compared to other parks we dont have long lines at all exept for tornado 1 hour plus wait

O think it will hold a crowed. not sure how much Queue TGE will give it. LC give their petty much queue, Canobie has about 10-15 minutes of queue, story Land has a 40 minute queue (the longest in the park).
