Probably X-Flight or Raging bull.... Tried American Eagle last year, but it was still testing for the first few hours.

This year I'm going to have to change it up and go to namtaB first. Knowing SFGAm will do their $20.00ish opening weekend tickets again, I won't be able to ride namtaB without a ridiculous line unless I do it first.

Honestly? Viper. Whizzer's queue fills up so quickly, while Viper's usually doesn't for some odd reason and there's no reason not to hit it at the start of the day.

Then, if Viper's not a reride, Bull and X-Flight.

It will probably be X-Flight, but I might try Eagle (barring any testing) namtaB or Viper.

Raging Bull and Whizzer are also in the cards.

I am going to step outside the box and say east river crawler. I missed it last year and would love to start the year with it.

I'll disagree. I do some work on Bucaneer Battle.

They ran the $20 special for American eagles 35th anniversary and batmans 20th this year Lowes is sponsoring opening day and prices have changed! And half a day??? during summer hours its open 2 hours more not that much of a difference....but do agree with you about the 1-2 train operations on rides:p
