Can someone post a link to the actual sound so I can hear it as I don't have twitter

I'm pretty sure you don't need a twitter to watch it considering I just opened the video in incognito mode to test it.

Ain't that Wilson?

Well the shades are up, taken from the Carowinds Instagram page. Kind of thought there would be more, but at least they're there.

I'm getting my pass processed this Sunday!!! I wonder if they'll have park maps in the pass processing center. I want to go to Cabela's, but I fear that it will be too crowded.

I'm going to get mine processed soon as well, and if they do have any I will definitely be grabbing some!

I love how the new map looks so... well... new! There's a crispness to the way the park is portrayed and I love it!

Yes, that is Wilson - the same voice from the Intimidator spiel and various other announcements you hear through the park’s PA, although he was more jacked up than usual on Tuesday.
He's been a Charlotte TV and radio staple for years. Great guy.

If they enforced that rule, most of the visitors would be tossed out. notice they never answered the question, when I worked there we were told that it is against the rules but as long as their arms were in the car it was safe.

I don't know where to find the spiel audio

(EDIT: Never mind)

[tarheel1231]

^ Are you on a mobile device? Try switching to the desktop version (full site) and the audio should work.

^^^^ The processing center is behind the ticket booths. I think it's in the grove area.

agree... and they'd be the laughing stock of the coaster world with multitudes of riders never returning.

even Mike Fehnel wasn't holding the bars before coming back into the station...

I know, right? It looks so clean, and it looks like it could be useful to you if you were from out of town. I hope I can get the real thing on Sunday.

I like the old Paramount Parks voice guy a whole lot better. Wilson sounds like a cartoon character.

I wonder how many people will have there hands up on the lift hill, but then grab on for dear life right before the drop?
