Fright Fest 10/11/09

We got to the park around 11:40 with my friend who has never been on a lot of the rides which was an exciting experience for both me and him. We headed to Bull first and waited about 45 minutes to get on. Great ride in the back, although bad trims as usual. We headed for Viper to find it out of the entrance. We went on Whizzer (Swamp Thing) as we headed out of SWT. Good ride but the thememing was pretty poor. The "Swamp Thing on the last turn before the brakes looked like a wolf man covered in a potato sack. We headed over by The Dark Knight Coaster. Waited about 35-40 minutes total in just the front part of the lines before the pre-show. It was alright, but the pipes that spray you on the little drops weren't on like last month. We headed to V2 and waited the most I've ever waited which was 55 minutes or more. I noticed that on almost EVERY ride except Demon were loading very slowly which is another cause for long lines. After riding Wicked Twister for my first time and headed back to V2, you can definitely tell a big difference between the two. We headed over to American Eagle to find another huge line over the bridge we weren't willing to wait. It was almost 3 by now, so we headed to Demon. Walk on ride and it was pretty jerky and my arms got caught a bad way in the seat and got banged up. We went to BK, ate, then headed back to SFGAm to see if Viper was any better. It was somewhat better, but still a 45 minutes wait. OK time on it, except the fact we couldn't choose our own seat. We headed to TDK again, shorter wait luckily. We rode BTR which was about a 55 minutes wait. We walked around a little to find almost no scareactors. We rode Giant Drop and what's with the ambulance in the line? We went on Demon with another walk on ride and great themeing. Headed to AE and found it closed. I went on Iron Wolf for my first time since 2006 and it was pretty fun and smoother than I remembered. We went on AE two times, rode Demon two more times, and rode Swamp Thing again. All around a pretty good day, if more scenery was added.

The reason to not have the misting on the Dark Knight coaster now is because it's cold outside. Woah, it was packed! Well, that's why it's good to have the Bears game on tv. Also, as someone said before, you have Columbus Day which is a day off for most kids, and thus it's okay for them to stay out later on a Sunday. The weather wasn't that bad either.

(on a side not) Why are the smiles broken now?
