Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
For me, I think the back row on Raging Bull is better than the front. The back row gets pulled and the front row pulls everybody. What do you think is better?

I like both equally. Front row for the awesome view and it's "slowness", and back row for the airtime and speed.

I much perfer the back row, and even the next to last it great!!
The back offers excellant airtime, and and the wait is usually alot less for the back of the train than the front!!

For the first drop and the bunny hill after the MCBR the back is the way to go.
You can actually get pretty good airtime in certain places in the front row as well, but I usually just don't want to wait.

The front row is better visually and for the sense of speed. The back row can't be beat for some floating airtime.

Back rows[7-9] for the air...i have set preferences. like v2 i wont settle for anything past 3rd row due to the amount of twist, with bull the back offers a far better ride, and thats actually the case with thr rest of the coasters...

I like the front row because on the first hill it feels that the lap bar is going to fail and your going to fall out.

Back row feels like your getting pulled out of your seat. Its an awesome feeling.

Rows 2 and 5 get awesome air coming out of the MCBR and on the hill directly after.

back row on bull is the best...especially if you're not stapled.

Back row. The first drop yanks you out of your seat.

Back row is the only way to go. I will sometimes go in th front, but it is no comparison to the back. Yes you get a better view, but i'll go with airtime any day.

I'm in love with back row! The airtime and speed are amazing!

that first drop on the demon in the back row is pretty intense.

Definitely backrow, shorter wait and in my opinion, better than the front. The front sometimes gives off that feeling that you're going incredibly slow.

I agree with you here! Demon's first drop is very intense and underated and that's a sure thing!
When it comes to Raging Bull, i guess it all depends on whether you like the speed and view of a coaster or airtime. I'm a guy who loves his airtime, so i'd go with back row being a bizillion times better than front row.

I like both front row, and back row. I love front row for the scandalous views, but hate the wait I always listen to when there looking for two riders to go with another two and it really shortens the wait. the back row is amazing too for the airtime. I think that row two offers the best though for the ride.
