FACT OR FICTION?

Contrary to popular belief, the Magnum XL-200 is not sinking and it is not being sold. It is speculated that the rumors originated from an April Fool's Day spoof. An Ohio newspaper printed the falsehoods as part of a joke that snowballed and escalated with the arrival of the internet.

it's quite possibule, like parts below new orleans is sinking, and they have proff of it, do i believe it or not, well i think it could be sinking, but it'll be 100's of years before even the bottom of the supports are gone (if XL200 will still be there

I recall you saying it was a hoax too. It's not sinking. Rollercoasters are not built on areas that they will sink. ( unless it's a big accident...which if it was something big would have happened by now. It's over 10 yrs. old!)
