8/21/07 SFGAm.

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Demon_07 on August 21st, 2007, 7:32 pm
Ok. So I got to the park and rode Triple Play Yellow Car first, (It's my tradition to do this, don't ask why) then I rode front car of Whizzer. 10 minute wait. Very smooth. After that, I went to Demon where I rode it 6 times in a row, (All walk-ons) then, to southwest territory to go on Ricochet and River Rocker, (Both were walk-ons) then to viper. The line was the shortest I've ever seen it! Afterwards, we headed around awhile and rode fiddler's fling (Walk-on of course) then we went on the whirlyghig (Almost a walk-on) to mardi gras where we cooled off on Roaring Rapids (30 minute wait for obvious reasons) then we went on Ragin' Cajun' for a reasonable (For the ride) 20 minute wait. After that, we went around the park back to County Fair to eat. Last, we rode demon 4 more times and got to be in the "Demon Hall of Fame" for going on it so many times. The record was 16. :cry: I'll break it next time. oh well.

Triple Play-1
Whizzer-2
Demon-3
Ricochet-1
River Rocker-1
Viper-2
Fiddler's Fling-1
Whirlyghig-1
Roaring Rapids-2
Ragin' Cajun-1

Total-15

I was going to say.

I have power rode Demon so many times without getting off and definitely more than 16 times.

Demon has been around so long, I bet no-one knows what the record is for most consecutive rides on it.
I finally retired the Sarah Palin signature because she is now 100% irrelevant.

Yesterday was a very good day at the park!!!
Its nice getting re-rides on Raging Bull, but for some reason the girl on Viper didnt allow re-rides.

The girl on viper told me the same and she told me because that people are coming, although I ended up being the next rider, as I went around and got back in line.

rcoaster, I was told the same thing, the ride i should have been on was dispatched more than half empty wiht no one in the station house, and i had just been on RB where the operator was announcing that if no one was in your row you can ride again.

You would think there would be some park policy on this.

^^ I bet you that next year or after a policy will be formed restricting that. The lady probably wanted us to go through the shop on the exit and buy something, then come back ride, go to the shop and buy another thing. :lol:

So you got off of Demon, and headed into SWT, but totally avoided Giant Drop and Raging Bull to get to Viper? :shock:

Mike.

Demon's exit is kind of centrally located to both accesses of SWT (If you dont hop the fence and go toward the back SWT entrance). They probably headed toward Orbit and entered SWT that way.

Well yea, that and the fact that I'm completely freaked out by bull and giant drop. :shock: I know, I sound like a baby but that's just the way I am. I'm working up to it.

^You're just not used to them. Go to Chicago and stand in the observation deck in the Sears Tower a few times every now and then and it should make that fear go away.

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

...and you should know that you won't fall out and that stuff, but when you are facing down the drop of the raging bull, it seems a little lower than you really are, but thats just my opinion. If you look from the sides of the bull, then you feel high. As for giant drop, good luck! :lol:

But the climb feels like its never ending. I remember my first time on shiekra, wow. Ir feels so hight up. Bull feels lower as rcoaster stated. Giant drop is so much fun, awsome view. i was scared of heights for a while but that fear went away. Dont be sorry either.
