A Full Queue only takes an hour and a half...
Speaking of which, Maverick is my favorite ride.[/
It was longer because the line was backed up all the way towards Skyhawk. Then the ride had a few problems but they fixed that pretty soon. So it was a lot longer than hour and a half.

Now I really want to ride Maverick. I didn't expect people to be labeling it as their favorite ride. I don't know if I'm gonna be going this year though.
Im gonna try to ride DeJa Vu this year if it's not down. The past 3 times I've went it's been down. Once I ride that, I've been on every coaster at SFGAm!

^Make sure you get in line right away if it's working. You don't want to say "Eh, the line's too long. I'll come back later" and find out it broke down. I don't care how good it's been running this year, never take a chance. Trust me, Vu is worth the wait. Maybe in 10 years if Vu has developed a 10 year history of incredibly high reliability and extremely low down times, I would say it's okay to be picky. Not yet.
Hee hee, look. I have a signature thingy um, thing.
Maverick is amazing... No ride can compare to it. My favorite is now TTD though because of the launch and the height. The difference between Maverick and TTD isn't much though.

The drop on TTD doesnt give you any feeling at all like Bull's drop messes up my stomach.

I haven't had the chance to visit a lot of parks and ride that many coasters really, and yet I still have a hard time picking a favorite. Viper is awesome, however there's tons of woodies out there I'd love to ride some day. I also remember enjoying Mantis and Raptor when I visited Cedar Point back in 1997.
After 4 pages of this thread I can't believe that not one person has said it, so I'm gonna throw it out there.
Millennium Force.
It's the best drop in the world. Hands down. And then ridiculous airtime ensues on the camelbacks. And you're FLYING through the course the entire time. It's the best.
But TTD and Maverick are tied for a close 2nd.
Millennium Force Laps: 22
Maverick Laps: 1
TTD Laps: 12
Just moved to Chicago from Ohio, and I'm ready for SFGA!
By the way, I rode Vu and it was awesome! When you go up the first tower it hurts my stomach so I put my feet on the car in front of me to hold me up. Yes I'm weak I know. I was in the middle with my friend. It was his first time also.

What do you mean it hurts your stomach going "up" the first tower? That's, um, weird.

The harness was going into my stomach looking downward.

That's not weird at all. If you can't get the main harness to fit snugly and the seatbelt is tight, all of your weight will be on the seatbelt which would be digging into your stomach. Not exactly pleasant.

Did you not notice the big sign that says "KEEP YOUR FEET OFF THE CAR IN FRONT OF YOU"? For the safety and convenience of you and the rest of the park, please heed that warning.

I liked it because it maintained speed through out the whole entire ride and after the mid course brakes, if you sit on the front row left seat, it goes slow on that turn after the brake and you feel like your gonna fall out.
Another reason I liked it so much was the hill gives such an incredible view of the Texas Rangers stadium, and the construction of the new Cowboys stadium.
Everybody has thier opinion.

I did see it but as soon as I got on the ride my stomach started hurting like a sick feeling so I couldn't help it. I would have threw up on the car in front of me. Then again it doesn't say ''KEEP YOUR PUKE OFF THE CAR IN FRONT OF YOU''.
