What ever happened to the High Roller roller coaster on top of the Stratosphere in Vegas?

Question

We were just in Vegas and they had the teeter totter type "roller coaster," Insanity, and Big Shot, but where is the roller coaster that went around the top? Why did it close and all that stuff?

Answer 1

It was not generating enough income so they replaced it with others.  The Big Shot is fun, though.

Answer 2

They had too many problems with it. Not worth the expense I guess so they removed it. Too bad.  

Answer 3

they replaced it with two new rides

Answer 4

They probably shut that down after I rode it drunk in '06 and vomited, lol.

Answer 5

i believe it's gone! did you go to the coaster at new york, new york? i'm a coaster enthusiast and it was actually pretty good!  

Answer 6

it broke down and they replaced it with something else.

Answer 7

The ride had constant mechanical problems and so they decided to not only shut it down but also remove it.  So they got a welding company to come and cut it into 3 foot sections that they could fit them in the elevator to take down and out of the building.

You can read the story about it being cut up on this web link:
