    Love the content! I think they’d avoid the B&M hyper route considering Mako down the road in Orlando, which is kind of a sister park to BGT. The giga would be awesome, but I think a dark ride or working with mock again for an extreme spinner would be awesome

    Sea World has the hyper l,at BGT you gotta go giga,BGT is the Florida coaster park,it's not Islands of Adventure,it's Busch,after they build this giga they can go ten years adding other non coaster additions the park needs like dark rides and other kids areas but a giga will cement Busch as a must visit coaster park.

    As a Tampa Bay native all my life, I sometimes forget how lucky I really am to have grown up less than 15 mins away from Busch gardens at any given time in my life. It has to be one of the best theme parks in the entire country reguardless of what your criteria is;
    Rides? CHECK.
    Food? Check.
    Animals? Check.

    I could definitely see a B&M giga in the works for this park, but as you mentioned I don’t think it would happen next year. My personal pick for the park would be a Mack XTreme Spinner like Time Traveler at Silver Dollar City. These are pretty reliable rides that offer great thrills and it would be totally unique to the area. I think it would be different enough from Cobra’s Curse that it is a viable option. The biggest downside is the lackluster relationship between seaworld and Mack. But that would be my personal pick for what the park should get next.

    • @TheCoasterJosh
      @TheCoasterJosh  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I would love to see a Mack rides extreme spinner. The park already has a fantastic lineup, and I am very lucky to be able to visit it so much. In terms of coasters, the only other noticeable gap would be a true wooden coaster. What the park really needs is a dark ride to help with the Florida heat.

    I think if Busch Gardens Tampa thinking about putting flat rides then they need to go with Huss Park and attractions and put in Break Dance ride and other rides around the park because it lets people rest from roller coasters so you more flat rides spread around your amusement park.

    A giga needs to happen. It would bring in more attention to the park rather than a hyper coaster. Imagine being in Orlando seeing Floridas tallest and fastest giga coaster over 300ft and 90mph. Hyper coasters are boring I was very disappointed with mako after the first drop and first hill just a very boring type of coaster especially compared to iron gwazi. They need to build something that would make gwazi feel small and tamed. Hyper just don’t do it especially when ur talking about the same height and speed of gwazi just for some boring airtime moments and that’s it

    No way a Hyper. SeaWorld Orlando & BGT don't duplicate coasters. BGT is not going to build a Mako competitor. Giga, sure. They tend to be more about speed than floater. It could also be a Wing Coaster. East animal tie-in there. One of the 2 parks is bound to get a wing coaster at some point. Personally, I really hope it's a Giga, but the cost might be too high. Can you imagine having a Giga and a hyper RMC? Only Cedar Point has both of those.

    @cawilliams188 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I'm not sure they will do a giga near the retention ponds tbh. There were sinkholes in that area a few years back if I recall correctly. They could also chase a record by being the first RMC T-Rex. Highly unlikely but you never know. Iron Gwazi has done wonders for them it seems and has proven quite reliable too. I think Cobra's Curse left a bad taste in their mouth for Mack but I'd truly love to see a Giga version of Hyperia with about double the track length. The park I feel also needs to update the Congo area and depending on how the flume coaster at SWSA does maybe replace Stanley Falls with one of those. Dark ride and more air conditioned things please. If they could somehow enclose Gwazi field/village like an NFL Stadium with a translucent roof I think that would be a very unique feature even if it only adds a benefit in the summer months. If they add another coaster after all of this I want to see a Gravity Group twister hybrid (steel supports), Launched B&M Wing and an RMC Raptor. The park could use all of these upgrades as well as some Retro throwbacks. Competition from Epic and Disney will be fierce over the next decade.
