7/15 - Enjoy your ride on Final Destination 3!

[DejaVuGurl1203]

I only went today because my parents had a wedding to go to, of all places, in Gurnee. I hate going on Saturdays and had no one to go with but I didn't want to miss the opportunity to go, I would've regretted it, and I'm pretty damn glad I went. So I got there around 12:30. I went to check out Deja Vu's line first, which didn't look bad, and people were leaving the line which meant it was broken down. So I waited for it to open, and eventually it opened. I waited around 40 minutes and got in 5B.

Next was Iron Wolf. 30 minute wait for row 6. Not much to say about this ride other than I enjoy it like always. Then waited in line for BTR, 40 minute wait. While in the tunnel I was starting to feel like I was going to pass out, I was dehydrated, very tired, dizzy and weak. But I got better and the ride in back row was fun.

After eating, I went to Demon since the line was much shorter than earlier. I waited about 10 minutes and rode in 6:1. I think I'm gonna start riding more often towards the front. I headed to Bull next. The wait was around 40 minutes, the crew was slow while I was in line, trains stacked a couple of times. Great ride in back row. While on Bull I noticed how short Viper's line was, so that was next. 10 minute wait for back row, and my sunglasses eventually snapped while I was riding it.

I walked around the park a bit, and seeing King Chaos's line much shorter than earlier, I got in line and waited 1 cycle for it. The program today seemed more fun, I think it did an extra flip. Then I got in line for BTR, realizing it was down. right before it opened back up, this guy was line jumping to get to his group, and then I saw security jump into the line to get him. That's the first time in a long time I've seen a line jumper get caught. This time the wait was 30 minutes. Good ride but I got a headache from it.

Then I headed to IW again. The wait was around 20 minutes. When I got on I said hi to someone I hadn't seen in a while. Next I got in line for Eagle. 10 minute wait, and I'm pretty much getting used to the roughness on Blue's side. While on the brake run I saw 2 of AER's cars off to the side. After buying a bottle of Coke, I went on Orbit.

I decided to ride Vu for the rest of the day. The first time, I waited about an hour to get on because of two breakdowns and slow load times. I rode in back row. I got back in line, and waited 45 minutes this time. It would have been longer but they needed a single rider for 1B, oh boy was I lucky. The ride was normal but we got stuck in the station because of a mispark. We were probably stuck for 5-10 minutes. When we started moving forward these girls started freaking out and said "Why are we moving?!" Me and one of the ride ops just looked at each other and laughed.

I got off and decided to wait a few minutes before getting back in line. It was now 9:50. At 9:54, the ride had another mispark. One of the ride ops blocked off the line, and I started worrying because was telling people that it was 10 and she wasn't gonna let anyone else in line, but right at 10 it was fixed and she let us in line. On the 2nd to last train, the guy said "Enjoy your ride on Final Destination 3!" hence the title. It was funny. I got last train of the night in back row, and it was great and seemed to be hauling a bit, it was extremely fast. Great way to end the day. I was hoping for a reride, but I'm glad they didn't because by then my head was throbbing in pain.

[ragingbullchick]

Sounds like a good day, for a Saturday.

Glad to gear that the line jumper got caught!!!

Hey, when you waited 40 min for BTR, where did the queue start?

[DejaVuGurl1203]

In the Gotham City Park switchbacks. Not all of it was full, but most of it.

[zjohn1988]

I thought maybe this was a TR from that park in canada

[Ilovthevu']

^I thought a lot worse than you. I thought a train went off the track even though that's like impossible. How long was King Chaos during the afternoon. You say it was long. How long???

[DejaVuGurl1203]

It looked full to me the first time I went by.

[zjohn1988]

Overflow too?

[DejaVuGurl1203]

You mean the line being so long it's out on the path? Not when I went by. It was basically mostly full.
