so i picked up my friends up around 8, and we got to the park by 9. After waiting for an hour, we headed to Vu, but by the time we got there, we walked, we decided to go to eagle. Eagle was closed, so we went to Iron Wolf for first ride of the day. We rode front row, and for once, the ride wasn't so bad...not too much head bashing.
afterwards we went to V2, which had a short wait. We waited one cycle, and hopped on. We rerode afterwards, and there was a creepy guy next to me who kept asking me questions about the park....weird.
next we decided to go to Vu, since the line wasn't so long of a line. we got to the stairs, and the train miscaught at the second tower. It took them a half hour to get the train going again, and after that, we waited an hour for them to test it and get the ride working again. During the testing though, some bolts fell off it, which paniced the GPers waiting in the station. We finally rode around noon, and we had a good ride.
after this, we headed to gurnee mills for a lunch and game arcade break.
when we got back, around two, we headed to ride giant drop. We played with the spray bottles while waiting in line for ten minutes. Nice drop, but the one car hasn't been working well, and we saw it stuck later on.
next was bull, and we only waited around 15 mins for row 9. after bull, we went to viper, and we rode.
one of our group members left, we had four or five group members, a few who aren't mentioned. Three of us went to Eagle, and waited a long long wait for Eagle Red. There were some teenagers behind me who wouldn't stop complaining, and i wanted to punch them, but i used my "super" powers and didn't.
next we decided to ride the train one and a half times, which was a nice relaxer. Afterwards, we went to the 4:30 show of Tribute to the Stars, and the show was fairly good. It was Elvis' day off.
after Tribute, we headed back into southwest, and we rode a few of the rides in there. We rode viper, and this my friends, is where this TR's name comes from. On the way out of the Viper exit, i scratched 1/3 of my arm on a wooden post, and it started to bleed....ewww. we ate dinner, mucho macho nachos from fiesta fries. then we headed to first aid, and they gave me a huge bandaid.
after first aid, we headed back around the park, and eventually rode superman. it gave me a bit of a headache, but i was fine. We found another friend of ours, and we went to Rue Le Dodge. Boys vs. Girls, girls kicked butt
we went back and rode bull, row 9and viper again in row 3, and then headed to whizzer right before nine. WE made it out of whizzer two songs into the Nighttime Spectacular, and we watched the rest of the preshow and the parade.
after the parade, we headed back to southwest, hoping to get on bull before the day ended. the line was a nightmare though, and so we went back on viper. After viper, with 9 minutes left, we ran to vu to get what we thought would be last ride. instead, we got second to last ride, and were told by the ride ops that we couldn't reride....which upset me a bit.
overall it was a good day. It wasn't too hot, and though it was kind of crowded (they were using queues for demon at one point) we had a pretty good day.

i went yesterday also. my friend and i waited in the line 3 times, and all those 3 times it miscatched going to the 2nd tower.
i was kinda sad when i found out they made blue forwards again. it was a really good day. the longest wait we waited was for superman for about 30-45 minutes, expect the deja vu, which we finally got on the 4th time we waited. -Roller Coaster Enthusiast

Its sounds like you had a good day, well besides viper biting you. Next time if you handle him a little nicer hopefully he wont strike again.
^ you're right, maybe she might have handled him the wrong way and he felt threatened.SF trips 09 = 15
