Default SFNE Stunt Show Stadium
Why remove the stunt show for a coaster? Six Flags has been claiming
to be targeting familys. The stunt show drew big crowds of old and
young that seemed to enjoy the entertainment, and was able sit down
and rest for a few minutes. There was always applause at the end.
Even in the last couple seasons it would fill quick. I just don't
understand the logic when there is plenty of room at the south end of
the park. The Dark Knight is eventually going to be built once all
the local red tape is taken care of.

All parks give family excuses trying to be Disney.

They can bring it back next year in a different location.

For example, Cedar Point no longer has a log flume ride. Is anyone
freaking out? No. Because the one they removed was old and made room
for a new coaster.
Now they can build a state of the art log flume ride in a different
location if they want to spend the money.

Now the joke reason would be...
The coaster needs to go in that location so it can travel over the
parking lot.

The stadium was made of concrete built into the side of the hill. The
stadium was destroyed.

My understanding is that the licensing for the Batman stunt show alone
cost $50,000 per month Per Park.

Remember they were themed to the movies, so they were paying Warner
Brothers, "and" DC Comics for licensing and etc.
