After a week of tornadoes and thunderstorms I finally got to go to Six Flags. I had been planning on going for over a month so I was excited that the day we planned to go was said to be partly cloudy all day. We got to the park around 9:30-9:45ish, showed our tickets (online buy 1 get 1 free) and waited till the chains dropped. The first thing we do is jog/run to The Dark Knight because everyone says it's over an hour wait later in the day. 15 minutes of waiting and we're on. I found the ride to be alright. It was very short and the theming was mediocre. The pre-show was cool, but when waiting on the brake run I looked out and saw all of the unused space that they could have used. My Dad said that we were going to fast to see any theming. Any ride where you can't focus on the theming at the same time focusing on the ride isn't a good thing. We tried to get another ride in later in the day, but the line was to long. Anyways after TDK we headed over to Superman and another 15 minutes later rode back row. Fun! With my adrenaline pumping we headed over for my first ride on Batman: The Ride. This ended up being my favorite ride of the day! We got off and got back on where I re-rode near the back. Bad idea. I think that's where my headache started. But that didn't stop me! Then we headed to V2 for my first time, second row. After that we headed over to American Eagle back row. That first drop is amazing in the back! Blue side wasn't running, bummer. After Eagle I went on Revolution. Fun ride, it just has be longer and inverted. And yes, that is what she said. I went on Demon back row and didn't get any headbanging in the corkscrews. We tried to get a ride on Whizzer before lunch but ended up going on Triple Play. After a parking lot lunch we decided to get on the rides we missed, Whizzer, Viper, and Cajun. I'm scared of Raging Bull and Iron Wolf wouldn't help my headache. We went on Whizzer once, Viper twice with amazing air in the back, and then Demon once. It was getting busier so we were surprised when we saw Eagle's line over the bridge! We knew we would have to wait for any ride so we waited for V2 which was much more fun the second time, Whirligig, And Ragin Cajun for the first time (never was very high on my to do list). TDK was better than Cajun just because it was smoother. After that we went on Rue Le Dodge, Condor, checked TDK line (hours) and went on Batman again. Met this cool German guy on a US tour. Going around the park again we got another ride on Eagle second row and then some dinner. We went on Whizzer again, Superman, and Viper twice. Viper's crew was awesome today. They were full of energy. Overall an amazing day at Six Flags!
