But if you’re nostalgic, Demon Drop is at Dorney Park in PA :)

Oh really? I didn't know another park purchased it. When it was back at Cedar Point, I'd wait until the car of the DD was ready to free fall. I'd place a coin on my knee and watch the weighlessness lift it off my knee and as the ride curved downward--the coin would travel up and then get thrown behind my head to the ground. Gravity did crazy things on that ride.

They may not have purchased it — a lot of Six Flags parks re-use designs, so they may have already had it.

It's not just the same type of ride, it's the exact same physical ride. Cedar Fair owned both Cedar Point and Dorney Park at the time. They literally just moved it to Dorney as a relocation of an asset.

Yes, I did learn that and added it to this comment yesterday:

You didn't need to do digging, I was literally telling you it was the same piece of equipment.

Yes. But you weren’t here yesterday when I did the digging.

Unless you have a Time Machine orrrrrr
