2 for 2002

When the parks were making their announcements for the 2002 season, I was hoping that some park, somewhere, would be able to use the phrase "2 for 2002" as their slogan for the year by adding two rollercoasters. I'm kind of disappointed that 2002 is an off year because now we won't get to hear that slogan. ALso, I don't think anyone will be able to use the "3 for 2003" phrase.

I wouldnt worry about it. Its not the end of the world and everyone will now die and have their souls taken away. Plus even if a park did get 2 coasters, im sure they wouldn't have thought 2 for 2002. Probably because it wouldnt make a big difference.

The only way I could see a park getting three next year is to keep up with competition.. like SFMM did. Could happen to SFGAdv easily, maybe SFoG too soon

It happened with Xcelerator at Knott's. I don't know if it was a coincedence or something, but the ride's track length is 2,002 FT.

I just realized that PGA is kind of using the 2 for 2002 slogan with their two new flat rides, Delirium and Flying Scooters. But that is only partly true because they are getting more than two attractions for 2002.

Well if you count non roller coasters, you could use that for Cedar Point. They are getting Wicked Twister and Snoopy Rocks on Ice. That slogan could slighty boose sales.

I see what you mean, that would be a good marketing scheme. But it doesn't look like it's happening this year. Lol, it would've be funny to see like a 1 for '01 thing.
