CoasterBuzz Podcast #63 - February 5, 2007

Jeff and Pat review this week's news in the amusement industry.

• Conneaut Lake Park financial condition gets worse every year.
• Disney has pretty ad campaign with celebrities.
• Carowinds goes cheaper for 2007. Was the price that high to begin with?
• Mall of America wants to license Nickelodeon characters. We love Sponge Bob. Snoopy is getting old.
• The value of the Disney parks means a lot of days to get that value. Different audiences get different value though.
• Busch Gardens Africa is tweaking SheiKra with the floorless treatment. Seems like a strange move without solid ROI.
• Legoland in the heartland. There are areas of the U.S. that are underserved by amusement venues.
• Sandusky the year-round destination is ripe for developing conference business.
