Wow.. that brings back some memories..Now.. does anyone remember who did the voice over for the first couple commercials and the Demon Drop one???

June 11th, 2001 - Gemini 100
VertiGo Rides - 82
R.I.P. Fright Zone, and Cyrus along with it.

Wow... I remember all of those except the Gemini spot, which may have been before my time.

The Gemini commercial cracks me up! Are the trains possessed? LOL

Californian in Ohio
'10 - TL Magnum XL-200
'09 - ATL Top Thrill Dragster
'08 - Magnum / Corkscrew crews
'07 - maXair / Magnum crews
'06 - Wicked Twister / Skyride / Millennium Force crews

I guess that means I'm out to get people.....being a gemini and all.:)

I forgot how awesome Schwabinchen looked when it was lit up. And I love the Demon Drop commercial... they really made it sound terrifying :)

The guy with the helicopter beanie is officially the coolest person ever.

Wow, I remember those old Gemini commercials, I was about 8 years old at the time. Brings back memories :)

I don't remember the Gemini spots either, but I do remember the Demon Drop one. I especially remember the "Summer is going fast..." commercial. I actually found this video a couple of weeks ago when I was looking for others. A couple of the other ones I found:

1986 Thunder Canyon Commercial:

1990 Disaster Transport Commercial:

What I was really looking for though was a White Water Landing commercial I remember as well as the "Summertime Blues" ad. No luck on YouTube or anywhere else yet.

Wow those were amazing !!!! i love old commercials

Great memories.

I also remember (although I dont see it anywhere) WWL's commercial...sort of a cartoonish montage of a log ride.

You know, I would like to see them put those lights on Gemini (with fog) during Halloweekends...now that would be sweet!

And, of course, Tony and Tyler walking around the park in black robes mumbling, "DemondropDemondropDemondropDemondrop...:

Promoter of fog.

The lights and fog on Gemini would be amazing for Halloweekends. All those old commercials are lots of fun to watch.

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

The commercial that I can remember most was the Cedar Point jingle. It went something like this... "Get to the point ohhh ohhh yea ohh ohh get to the point" I can never find that one. I believe it was from the late 80's

Take you up really really high and then drop you at speeds that are really really fast.

Haha that is great!..the Gemini one was the best

Good times even though I wasnt born yet. :)

Let's Get Weird.

Does anybody have the link to the Magnum XL 200 commercial? I think I remember that one, even though I had to be like 5 years old at the time. I rode it a few years later so I had to be 8 when I first rode Magnum.

agreed. It's a great idea. They could put fog machines by many of the rides to make them more scary for Halloweekends.
