Well what else would it be, they have every type of roller coaster there is practically!

A dive coaster would make much more sense. Plus, when they said that Fury fever is contagious, they probably meant that the excitement for Fury is contagious, not the actual ride.

Coaster Count: 63

Wow, Fury looks beautiful all lit up, and the sign really comes alive at night! Making me reconsider what days I visit the park so I can have a real night experience!

As far Cedar Point dropping hints, I wouldn't read into it. They're just promoting their sister park.

If the apocalypse comes, beep me.

Do we know who took that picture?
If so, is there a way to get the high resolution version?

Laresa Thompson posted the pic on her twitter account. She is Carowinds' new public relations manager. She's made a couple appearances on the news recently and has been sharing lots of park-related pictures on social media.

The lights look like a neon version of heaven! I can't wait to just bask in all of it!!

As for Cedar Point's alleged teasing... didn't you people learn anything this past year?
The parks walk a fine line to try to keep everything under wraps until they are ready...

Rosko97 wrote:I think Cedar Point just gave away a major hint that they are getting a ride called "Fury" in the near future in their last tweet that said "be warned. it's contagious." This connects back to the copyright that was found along with "Fury 325" awhile back. Maybe a B&M hyper?

How in the hell did you get cedar point is getting a ride name fury out of that??? How is that a major hint? I don't know if your internet has been down but I'm willing to bet that comment is in lieu of the hashtag #furyfever, remember the video from the doctor...

Boy...I swear...lol lol

The Today Show coverage is reportedly on the 3rd hour, which airs at 9am on WCNC-36, NBC-Charlotte, and at 10am on WYFF-4 in Greenville-Spartanburg. I get both channels with an antenna.

You can win a free first ride on Fury with Larry Sprinkle from WCNC if you go to NBC-Charlotte Facebook page. Probably on Media Day.

According to their post yesterday:

"Fury 325 opens this weekend at Carowinds and you can be one of the first to hop on this record breaking roller coaster! Enter fast for a chance to bring a friend and ride with Larry Sprinkle on Friday morning! "
