Opening Day TR - 04/24/2010

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby BrianPlencner on April 24th, 2010, 10:25 pm
Opening day has come, and boy what a fun day it was. Arrived at the park at 7 AM, and a few other people showed up between 7:15 and 8. Outside of some rain between 8 and 9, the rest of the day was cloudy and in the mid 50's.

Rode all of the coasters multiple times as well as some of the flats. Crowds were very small. In fact, was on Eagle from 7 PM till 8 PM and never had to leave my seat.

Below is a link to my facebook page, with all the pictures I took.

One thing that no one has said yet about today in the other TR's has to do with the gift shop at the front of the park. I'm not going to say what's in there, but you will find out if you click my link! For those that went, I hope you went into Carousel Plaza Gifts. If you did not, you need to get out there ASAP! :D

It really looks great there. Brings that area to life. Q: Did Melissa, the pretty girl (Woman) with short (maybe curly) hair run Great American Idol?

If she's the African American girl from last year, no. I haven't seen a Melissa, so I guess no?

The girl that ran GAI each time I was there was white. And at least mid 20's. Short hair. I want her back. Ask about her!

I think it might have been. If I remember right, I had the back row to myself, and the three of you got on for 3 or 4 rides.

Today was about the same, with very low crowds and good weather, until around 5 pm when it started to rain.

^ Not at first. It started out sunny for a bit. Then, it got cloudy, and late in the afternoon when it started to rain, then it got cold.

Overall, I had a great time this weekend at the park. Looking forward to my next visit, which will probably be 05/01/2010.
