tbf it would take one of the baddest launch coasters on the planet to top fury.  i'm not talking top thrill dragster or kingda ka, but a monster version of the incredible hulk or thunderbird.

topping fury is borderline unrealistic, but it could happen in the future

i'd be happy with a sweet ass RMC

fury owns. i rode it 5 times in like 30 minutes. there was no one in line. do people not like it or did i just happen to be lucky that day?

at the beginning of the day and end of day you can pretty much just ride the best rides back to back , mid day is when the waits usually happen

fury is a people eater too, and the highest capacity coaster in the park.  first night it opened, the line stretched through the entire queue, and then back around a makeshift wall behind rip roaring rapids, and it still only took about 45 minutes to an hour to get through the line.

if you go on a weds, you can pretty much ride it like that all day long.

Wait, they got rid of white water falls!?!?! WTF. And your pic includes the wave pool... did they get rid of that too!? God damnit, you move away from charlotte for a few years and they trash your childhood memories to poo.

Next thing you know, they'll get rid of Hanna-Barbera Land.

no Carowinds has 2 wave pools.  They got rid of the BS, peace and quiet kiddie pool no one used.  Carolina Harbor has been redone, it does not need this waste of space.  And not sure if you are being serious, but Hana Barbera has been gone for some time and is now Camp Snoopy.

Oh, I see the difference in the pools now on the map. I haven't been in probably 10 years; I'll probably give it another year or two until my kid is big enough to ride the kiddie rides.

I wasn't being serious about Hanna Barbera - I think it was rebranded when Paramount took over - I do miss it though, those characters were the best and Smurf Island was baller for 5 year old me.

Fun story, when I was like 4, I went on the scooby doo wooden coaster with my mom and climbed out of the car mid-ride and into another car - she was stuck in the car by the restraints and couldnt get me so the people in the other car had to hold on to me until the ride was over.

    • I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks. 
    • They both outstanding players and both had monster games against Jets.  We gonna need it again this week with the bills.  Go Panthers!!!!
    • Yeah okay fair enough.  Maybe the point is if you have a better system and players you can dumpster dive for a RB and if you don’t you have to shop top shelf. I dunno.    I would put my assets into the best OL I could get and let them make UDFA like Rico look like stars. As opposed to putting CMC behind a makeshift OL. And right now I don’t even remember who was on the OL when we took him, just sayin.
