Alright, this was on the morning news today, don't know if some of you heard it, if you can find an article on it, post a link. Anyways, Because of what happened at Six Flags New England, Six Flags and Knott's have shut down all there large rides with "T-Shaped" restraints. A ride mentioned specifically was Xcelertator (sorry weeweeslap) and I assume SFMM will have Goliath shut down. Hopefully it will only be for a short period of time, and that the rides will re-open soon. But who knows.
