Fun day at the park (8/10)

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby CoasterCruiser on August 11th, 2008, 1:37 am
First, we (me and friends) went to dark knight. It was my first time going to six flags this season. We didn't really pay attention to the "120 minutes from this point" sign until after. The line didn't look too bad, until we enetered the buiding and discovered there was maby 15 rows of line! So after waiting 2hours, we got on the ride. And let me tell you, it SUCKED! It was like Ragin cajun, except worse! After the DTK, we ate lunch. Next, we headed to Batman. The line was around 30 minutes, which is pretty good. Next, we rode V2 3rd row from the back, which gives a lot of airtime. The line was about an hour. The ride was overall good, except this time the train didn't go to a stop at the tower! After that I went on Revolution for the first time, and it was great! Raging bull was next, and the line was about an hour. I love that ride every time! Last but not least, Superman! The line was also an hour or so, but it was worth it. I also visited Deja vu's grave, which if i'm remembering clearly, was covered with a lot of small rocks. :cry: The day at the park was great! It was my first time this season, and I noticed a few changes. They hold all the lines, then let groups of people go at a time, and theres lcd tv's in all the lines. I'm craving a new thrill!

How much are those again? 27 dollars a person?

I never understood how flashpass works. Can you press every ride at once, and after an hour all of them will beep and you can go on one after another?

$60 for 1 and $80 for 2. $10 off coupon with season pass value book. It goes up to 6 which is like $200. Expensive but worth the money. You reserve ONE at a time. You can go to it whenver. It does not matter if you are 2 minutes late. You don't have to run which is great. Just don't go too early so you don't wait until your time is up. Also, AE, Viper and Demon are not available. You have to wait for those. Yankee CLipper is also not available. Neither are any of the flats. Like King Chaos. Stupid.

hmm, this is now the 3rd time including my experience in the past week or two that people have mentioned this ..and thats a fairly large sample for such a small group of people on the site.

V2 must be having some issues.
