    My uncle has a piece of the logo in the middle of the floor signed by the Dream... the b*stard! (my uncle, not the Dream). For some reason though I just don't see old and ragged white 2x4's going for much :p

    Is Europe such a backward place, that they have no internets?

    Anyone want to go halves on the dungeon drop? We'll put it downtown some place and charge 5 bucks a drop. Much better deal than the ferris wheel and those other attractions at the aquarium.

    Don't worry. they thought of that:

    "Please note that all auction attendees must be at least 18 years old and must provide a valid ID at registration.

    No minors will be allowed."

    Dungoon Drop and the other newer coasters aren't up for auction. It's only the old ones. Of the bunch, Greazed Lightning would definitely be the best.
