I love Hersheypark with all my heart and soul, but...

I love Hersheypark with all my heart and soul, but I am really upset with the remodel of the Chocolate World Tour. They've made such drastic changes in the last few years that it's become so cluttered that I can't even recognize the place. The catchy show tunes by the singing cows and at the end sequence have been replaced with modern absurdities, and the place is littered with projection screens instead of actual elements. It just seems lazy and pandering to the wrong crowd. Everything I loved growing up as a kid has been demolished and replaced with a shell of what it once was. I enjoyed the subtle changes in the past years, but recently this complete overhaul has just ruined the novelty. And it shows-- a ride that used to be packed every time I would visit, was almost completely open up until the final stairs leading in. (Not to mention the random access hallways taking away from the atmosphere in the queue.)

Hershey, sometime's if it ain't broke, don't fix it. This is one of those times.
