BREAKING: The AMERICAN EAGLE roller coaster will RACE ONCE AGAIN at Six Flags Great America for the first time in nearly a decade.
The park announced that EAGLE will race during the park’s 50th Anniversary Celebration, which is happening from June 20-August 9.
The classic wooden roller coaster opened in 1981 with a red train and blue train racing side by side. It is the tallest, fastest, and longest racing wooden roller coaster in the world.
@SFGreat_America opened to the public 50 years ago today - May 29, 1976. In honor of the big day, the park is handing out party hats and some treats. There will be a fireworks show at 9:30pm.
LOL: Bret Michaels just dropped out of Trump’s concert in DC this summer. Only 3 out of the original 9 featured performers remain with many of them saying they were lied to about the event.
Everyone hates Trump.
An appropriate birthday present on my uncle's birthday today. A federal judge ruled that President Trump and the Kennedy Center Board acted unlawfully in renaming the Kennedy Center. The judge held that only Congress can change the Center's name and blocked the planned two-year closure. I know they'll probably appeal and the story isn't over, but for today let’s celebrate a great birthday gift.
A new voice was heard anchoring the weekend overnight WGN Radio overnight newscasts Dimitris Bubaris,but it sounded like he wasn't live and I haven't found any more information about his status with WGN Radio.
WGN Radio changes:
Gabe Salgado was let go in late April and James Sears just anchored his last overnight newscast this morning. He is moving to the Bob Sirott Show as morning news reporter. Steve Grzanich will continue as morning news anchor.
