Manage episode 220778039 series 687
The theme park industry is in a constant state of flux. The change is driven by many things. But this week, our "First Drop" focuses on the "Experience Economy" and how a specific group of tourists choose to visit theme parks and other exotic places because of the "social media" opportunities they provide.
During our Quick Hits segment, the guys talk about several of this week's most interesting stories in the amusement industry, including:
- New attraction patents from Universal
- Disney's Augmented Reality Costumes
- Grand Texas Theme Park opened Gator Bayou Adventure Park for a free day
After some show announcements, we open our Mailbag! We also find an a fantastic new desktop roller coaster on Amazon.com!
Finally, we begin our season-long project to determine the greatest roller coaster name of all-time. We start by having the audience give us their nominees for the best names that invoke fear, excitement and nostalgia!
