Was just on it and it just shredded a wheel. Pieces were flying up and hitting us in the back few rows on the left side of the train....more delays :-(

Yeah. The ride was really good. I don't know if it's Raging Bull level but It's in the Top 2. Also met Alan S. and Jim Reid Anderson. Both are really cool and nice guys.

You really just said that Raging Bull is better than Goliath?

Seriously?

Top 2 in the park are Raging Bull and Goliath in my opinion.

You have a right to your opinion Justin. I don't know why Mike called you out on this.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

Media day was fun but was little more crowded than I thought it was going to be. I got one ride on it but i'm not going to complain, it was worth it. Maybe it was because I have been waiting for this ride for so long but it was seriously a lot of fun! From the drop to the dive, it was intense, smooth, and all around a fun ride. I left around 4pm after going on all the coasters in the park twice. Before I left I remembered they have the option to buy a season pass for $29.99 with proof of purchase. Well I didn't have a proof of purchase so I went to customer relations and simply asked if I would be able to receive the deal. They said yes! A $30 season pass!! What a great day! I have some pictures below for you guys to check out. I shot in monochrome because I thought everyone else would be shooting in color so I thought it would be something different. If you want color pics or have a problem with my pictures go somewhere else. I know how some people on these boards can have tempers or have problems with some posts, just enjoy!

Here are some photos from media day: http://sfgamworld.com/gallery/imagegall ... edia%20Day

Unfortunately due to the weather we weren't able to get as many photo's as we wanted. I have put some of the great photos the park provided into that album as well.

Goliath has Quality Airtime, Raging Bull has Quantity Airtime.
Of course as with all coasters, Last row is a must.

You didn't pay for park admission and still got a season pass for $30? Am I reading this correctly?

Yes, I went to guest relations and asked if I could get the $30 season pass. I was expecting them to say no but they actually said yes.

^Probably. They would likely just throw down some seed, and not sod or anything, so it would take a little while to grow like on X-Flight.
