Coaster101’s Top 8 Features of 2016

Happy New Year everybody! Over the last eight days we’ve been counting through eight of our favorite features and interviews of 2016 over on Facebook and Twitter. Along with our “Year in Review” post today, we also wanted to share all eight of those features in one place. So based on no scientific order or method, here are our favorite posts from 2016! Let us know in the comments if you agree, or if there others that you really liked and we missed. Here’s to 2017 having even more great stuff, and thank you to all of the wonderful folks from the industry who helped us make all of these!
