I don’t buy the “close it and let it sit” theory if and when it closes…why would a park that’s hurting for capacity (who is already closing HRRR and potentially Simpson’s/others) just let a vacant building sit?
Now I know the argument coming back at me…Poseidon’s was not related to anything but run cost and upkeep cost after physical damage…these two things are not the same. You could make a case for Sinbad and I’d have nothing in rebuttal other than a plethora of other people eaters available.
The only way I see them closing without replacement plans/construction beginning is if the cost to keep it open outweighs the cost of closing it and letting it sit.
And for as awful as this ride is, who here would actually prefer ANOTHER vacant building over a lackluster ride? It’s not a good look.
