They've readjusted their numbers as to what will be considered a great first year because they're not matching what they said they would.

The Creation Museum was already having problems when Ham started the Ark Encounter. When you're not a real museum yet you're the pinnacle of creationism, your exhibits don't change as there are no other museums to get exhibits from - and there ARE other Creationist Museums - normally sheet metal buildings in the deep south. When things don't change, even the most fervent creation-believing Christian out there isn't going to make it a habit to come back to it. The same is already happening to the Ark Experience. The local young Earth churches will go every year, but kids under a certain age get in free so that's not helping them.

It will go underwater (tip your waitstaff) sooner rather than later.
