Good Bye, Tony

I'll miss you Tony, I usually go on the CP website just to see the updates and what's going on with the park both current and future projects. Best of luck and good wishes for you with your new endevors :)

Goodbye Tony.. The park won't be the same without you, nor the web page.

Awww you guys! Stop it!

As I prepare for my last day (which is tomorrow), I wanted to say a personal "thank you SO much" for all the well-wishes and compliments. Working here has been one of the best experiences of my life - and y'all had somethin' to do with it!

It was a pleasure meeting some of you (and interacting with most online). It was also fun reading your questions, comments and concerns. You all have a true passion for the park (as I do) and there's good reason for it - this place is special.

If you care to follow me on my new adventure (I'll be working in the exciting world of TV), you can follow me on Twitter (@FOX6Tony). And if you don't use Twitter, just point your browser to my page and take a look once in awhile. It'll be nice to hear how you're all doing! Plus you get to see me being, well, myself - just on TV!

Thanks again for some great memories. I'll be back!

P.S. No, I will not share future capital expansion plans, comment on park policies or tell you things I could or couldn't say while working here. ;)

Best to all,
Tony

Tony do you have anybody in mind that will keep the blog going in your honor?

Sorry I couldn't get you that HUGE mug from Universal Tony, that would have been a PAIN getting it safely through luggage without damage. Would have been one hell of a souvenir though.:)

I was so sad when I found out Tony was going! I only got to meet him once, and he was such a nice guy! I started reading the blogs and watching all the pointcasts this spring, and it's going to be sad knowing there won't be any more entries. Good luck Tony, we will all miss you!

I know that we will all miss Tony, but I have to say that after watching the fair footage he is an excellent fit for the new position. Good luck Tony! Enjoy the fried cheese curds!


No coaster will ever be too fast or too tall!

Not to mention the brats, and the frozen custard....................

I think what I will miss most is the HD ride videos. I've really liked the ones posted so far, hopefully somebody comes in and keeps making new ones.

This is really sad news for all CP enthusiasts. I saw Tony around the park numerous times and was always so starstruck that I never said hello. Now I wish I had! Going to really miss the blog and the sense of 'inclusion' that Tony gave to all of us. There are some incredibly large shoes to fill, both in finding a new representative for the park, in the level of quality of the online components that Tony contributed. All of the best Tony and don't be a stranger!

I'm still in shock Tony. After all the times we've spoken and met, it's like losing a friend. I wish you the best in your new position and hope you'll still keep in touch with us through this forum.

What was Tony's official job title with Cedar Point?

Out of sheer coincidence I happen to have his business card. It says "Interactive Marketing Manager"

There's some pretty hilarious stuff in the videos. Seems like Tony is having a blast at his new job.

Maybe I've seen Bruce Almighty too many times, but I kept waiting for the store owner to pick his nose....

But good for Tony! :)
