Let us know how your day at the park was.

We got there at about 11:30 after waiting in a 45 minute line for parking. Then we waited in line for Viper which was about 45 minutes. Then Raging Bull which had about another 45 minute wait. It was about 1:15 now. We left the park to get food from our car. We got back in the park at about 2:00 and got in line for superman Ultimate Flight. The ride was about an hour and a half. They were using Deja Vu boarding passes. We met up with our group at about 4 and left because that was the time we had to go. I didn't see Giant Drop running at all. It was testing a lot though. It was very crowded and I wished I could have gone on more, but it was still a fun day. It was fine though because my aunt got us free tickets. Also I had just gone on June 4th and the longest line was about 30 minutes for Bull so I got to ride every roller coaster.

Raging Bull-1
Viper-1
Superman-1

I would NEVER wait that long for Viper...ever. I once walked off from Batman because it was filled up COMPLETELY and that was Batman. It's weird so many people go on a weekday. Don't a lot of people work during the week even during the summer? Go back to work!

Did you actually timed the queque lines? or that's how much you think you have waited? BECAUSE when I worked on Viper and we had full queque line, with no stacking, the time was 21 minutes. From entering the queque to entering the train.
Six Flags Ameirca as the number 1 park at SFI.... this is JOKE!

I also was at the park today, and was in line for viper at a similar time. About that time they stopped letting the station be full and stopped the line at the front of the station, but it felt like the line wasn't moving for a long time. That could be because I was at the front of where it was stopped. I hate that when they stop you right before the ride. So close yet so far.

yeah the whole ushering garbage is BS... randomly they will hold you up before the station and try to TELL you where to go and which row.

i tell them forget that, and go to another row. Why do they try to control the crowds outside the station, it just makes the line longer and people more restless.

When it comes to Viper's station, you want that grouper at the front of the station only letting a certain amount of people at a time.

That station sucks when it's packed with people.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.
