We all think they will rename a small coaster, but what if they renamed something important? Would we revolt? I would.

Yea I highly doubt they would rename a main coaster like MF or Raptor. It could possibly be funny at first, but then would get annoying once you realize it is permanent so they will probably rename one of the small coasters.

Hopefully its a rough ride. Then someone will say "I rode Lebron/King James till my ass was sore". And everyone around them will laugh.

Millennium Force should not be renamed! Please! That big steel giga changed everything of a coaster history! The year 2000 was so great! I think Maverick should put another subtitle like "Maverick By King James"! Sounds more cooler to me! ;)
-- I was happy to be with NL1. --

Personal coaster count as of 3/2025 -- 222
"500" perhaps by the end of this year.
I will be a Thai citizen if possible in a few years.

Well, according to the photo below which was taken very recently, Mantis might be the one, especially with new paint.

CK can you confirm you'll be operating on Lebron? And that you're title will be renamed from ride op to surgeon / physio?
