May 23rd First trip of season

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Jackluver18 on May 23rd, 2009, 11:17 pm
So I was feeling under the weather this morning when I woke up. My ankle was bothering me and just wasn't feeling good. My mom told me I could stay home but I was like um no, I want to go whether im sick or not. So I got to the park around 10. Got my exit pass (don't yell at me, I get yelled at all the time), headed towards Whizzer and as I was on the ride, the people behind me decided to be idiots and unlock their seatbelt before going down the first hill and the mother was freaking out the whole time. Next was Viper front row, very very screechy going around the curves oy other then that it was great. I was waiting for Demon_07 to arrive so I headed to Bull teal train front row far left (horrible history in that seat). Thankfully I didn't get killed by Bull. So after that Demon_07 showed up and we went on Demon and AE (by the way happy birthday) before getting lunch. After lunch we went on V2 front row and I got majorly stapled in, couldn't breathe and let's just say uncomfortable. The station thought I was going to die, I felt like it because it hurt so much. Ok enough of that, next was TDK......the pipes and the clown car weren't working but the disco lights at the end were pretty cool.

After that we did Bull again front row on Teal train. While we were at Bull, someone had thrown their shoes on the side. She came back and one of her shoes was gone, it was later found in front of Bull just under the control booth how it got there idk, anyways Demon_07 had to get ready to go home so we headed to SUF and got 4th row...eh it was ok. Before he left, he went on ERC and we went on Whirligig and BTR front row. After he left, I headed back to Bull and got front row again this time teal train far right end, great ride. And now for the best time of the day, Demon_07 you're going to hate this.....not 1, not 2 but 10 rerides on Demon all red train. To end the night I went on Whizzer and STT, so for a great day of the weather trying to rain and not that many crowds, I say I had a great day and hope to go again soon.

Totals
Eagle-1
BTR-1
TDK-1
Demon-10
Bull-3
SUF-1

I don';t care for rerides that much maybe cause I always see people at the gate waiting for me to get off and them to get on....

Yesterday Demon's line was pretty long, longer than usual. But it was around 8 pm that there was no one. Also I forgot to mention there were like a grand total of 15 people that I saw on BB. I'm sure there was more, but there weren't many people on it.

There weren't many people on it the day I was there either. Roaring Rapids was more packed. And don't give me the thing that you can't compare the two. When it's hotter out, and people aren't riding the new water ride, what's the problem??

First time I went I think it just opened or had no people for the first hour or so...most people go on water rides a bit later on...It had a line later on but nothing more than 20 minutes or so. It goes by fast when groups all go on one boat. I really wanted Clipper to be open I like that over Loggers for some reason I barely get wet on Loggers.

I usually don't go on water rides until it's really hot and I'm not paying 5 bucks for a dryer, that's what coasters are for.

^I chose the swings over coasters for drying off methods, but to each his or her own. For water rides, it's best to get on them right when they open. At 2 pm, and you are hot as anything water rides are going to be really, really packed. The roller coasters will get less empty, and you will have better lines on them.

I went on Roaring Rapids, and that ride just isn't the same like it used to be. It's been the same for probably 5 years now, but the rapids just aren't as high from back when. It's probably has to do with the Texas accident awhile back, and I understand but why do I bother going on it anymore. Six Flags Over Texas one, Disney's Animal Kingdom one, and Six Flags Magic Mountains were also lackluster. The good ones in my opinion are Kentucky Kingdom (More about the theming), Six Flags Over Georgia's, and Six Flags St. Louis. Popeye's is also good at Islands of Adventure, but yet when it's a little cooler outside it's a little too much for me.

I also went yesterday, and BB was a walk on all day. It was also sort of boring shooting at empty boats from the shore, but trying to hit the targets was more fun. There also seemed to be a problem of people standing up and moving around in the boats during the ride.
poor wolfie rip :(( hopewe get a neww bm wingrider for next year!11!
