Yes. Sadly, Big Bad Wolf is officially now a defunct roller coaster. After my visit to Busch this past weekend, I learned more about why the Big Bad Wolf has closed. Read more about why the park decided to close it and see a video of the final train in this post: A Legend Reaches Its Expiration Date

I just heard about the closing today. What a shame. It was a fun coaster, and the first one my daughter ever rode.

It is the final day so I’ll post my review.

The pre-lift is fun, and you feel kind of high up. The first lift is short, but in the back seat, you are yanked over. The sharp corners are awesome, and very forceful, especially compared to another beast at CP. The final drop- just epic. The trn afterwards is so forceful that the transition afterwards threw me forewards. The final turn towards the station is the 2nd best part of the ride. I was almost 90 degrees going twenty mph. The ride is sort of rough, with the occasional headbang, but I’ll take the intensity over Dragging Iron’s smoothness.

9/10- Great ride, sad to see it go.

Maybe, but I believe the Big Bad Wolf was less of a “little kid” ride and more of a necessary bridge between, let’s say, the new “coaster” in Sesame Street and Griffon. There is a LOT of people that come to theme parks and can’t handle Alpengeist, Griffon, and even Loch Ness, and found BBW to be the perfect middle ground.

I believe BG is starting to feel the pressure from coaster fans everywhere- there is a “gathering” of supporters planned for Thursday in front of the ride. We’ll see where this goes…

It would be nothing sweeter than BG being forced to keep the ride for a little bit longer because of public pressure.

Busch Gardens was smart though to add that Sesame Street thing. I mean since Big Bad Wolf is going soon, that was the only “kid ride” before it opened. At least they are getting rid of it at a pretty decent time
