Postby coastercrazy111 on October 9th, 2006, 10:02 pm
Well we got to the park about 9:45 and noticed that it wasnt so busy. So we started watching the show at Carousel Stage and it was kinda lame so we figured we'd just go get on some rides. Our first ride was King Kaos or "Halloween Kaos". I think we got on the first ride. After one false start, we got to go. Spinning 4 times, it was pretty fun. I think the false start was due to the wrong program being executed. We didnt even go upside down the first time. The Op was going to let people tay on again because the line was short but we got off. We then got on batman with a one cycle wait. V-2 was next but my girlfriend doesnt like it so I went on by myself. I then took her on Raging Bull for the first time, she was so scared but she loved it!

We went on a few other rides and then wanted to eat. We got some nachos and a drink and then after eating went and seen Marvin: The Martian 3D. Same show as last year but still pretty cool. We got our tickets for the Hold-Up Express and rode it at 2:30. It was okay, the on-train acting was much better then the stuff further away. We went on a few more rides and then seen Susan Rosan:The Mistress Of Mesmerism. She is so amazing. This older lady in the crowd reallllly reacted to the super wedgie. Hilarious! We then walked around a little bit and did some other stuff.

Then we seen LAFF at 6:30. That show is so good. I really enjoy it. The jokes about MySpace and the lines from movies had me falling off my chair laughing. I was in the front row and one of the characters came out during Love Potion Number 9 and grabbed me up on stage. She told me to dance so I did. The crowd Roared with laughter. If anyone was at that show let me know so I can talk to you hhaha. It was a great show though.

In the day we went in Necropolis and a scare-acter scared a kid so much he fell over rthe red rope barriers, went to get up and then tripped again, the lady scare-acter would not give up on him lol. Mind you, he was about 15 or older and was like 190 pounds. Wuss.

At Night Necropolis looks cool still, but the Sideshow wasnt as good as it was last year. Seeing the worlds smallest living girl though was really cool. We then got in line for superman, but afer waiting for 20 minutes and then finding out it would be 50 more or longer, we left. We went to Flags Gift Shop, bought some stuff and then headed out at about 9:30. As we were leaving we could see the fireworks in the mirrors for the perfect ending of a perfect day.

Crowds: Light in the morning Heavy the rest of the day
Fright Fest: It's good this year but I want to go one more time before the end of the season.
LAFF: Amazing!
Susan Rosen: Shes great go see it!! You'll believe after this!
Sideshow: Not the best one to date but take a look at it.

Overall it was great, we had a lot of fun and I can't wait to go back!!!
2010 is going to be one to remember forever!!

The setting was on 1/3 load (hopefully..). It was because of the weight that it didnt flip correctly the first time.

yeah the train is free....


i'm glad to see that people are giving LAFF a chance...I hear so many different coaster people who are don't want anything to do with the show, so i'm excited when people are willing to see it and try it....it's not really bad.

yeah I completely get what you are saying. LAFF is an amazing show, and it has a lot of known songs in there! It's 100% worth seeing! You may even get to be in it! I WAS! Again if anyone was at the 6:30 show on Saturday the 7th and seen me up there dancing let me know.
