Ok. So first, I went on triple play yellow car, (It is my tradition!) then, we got to whizzer About a 15 minute wait for front row. Then, we headed straight to demon. Pretty long line if you ask me. 20 minutes. Then, we went to viper. About a 35 minute wait which can be expected. After that, we went around the park for a while until we came to Ragin' Cajun which I really didn't feel like waiting in line more than an hour for. The, we got a quick ride on condor which was basically a walk on for once, then, we went back demon for another ride, even longer wait, =/ Last, we went to american eagle red for like a 40 minute wait. Pretty good day but huge lines.

Triple Play-1
Whizzer-1
Demon-2
Viper-2
Ragin' Cajun-1
Condor-1
American Eagle (R)-2

Lines were huge that day. It pretty much sucked. I didn't get on any coasters.... but I did get a funnel cake.
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking, isn't thinking of.

Haha, yeah i was there too. You forgot to mention the spit load of FF scenery out. it was so cool, Chubasco and Rue Le Dodger were completely transformed (went on both) and that made the day that much better. I really liked going on the train and seeing The Maus entrance.

Did you see any sign of TDKC at Orleans Place anywhere? They probally haven't started or already started but isn't enough to see yet. Ok, that came out wrong beause the whole coaster is inside. Did you see any sign of it though anywhere in the park?

The first think you probably will see is construction markers. Then a building. Then finally pieces of track more towards december if it is a portable mouse, which can be put up quickly. Thats just what I think though.

Are we talking about last Saturday?????

I went to the park and while I left around 3:00pm, I didnt find the lines too be that long at all.
I was able to ride RB 5 times, Giant Drop 5 times, Le Rue dodgem cars 1 time, BTR 4 times, AE 4 times ,Sky Tower 1 time and whizzer 1 time, all at a leisurely pace. The only ride I didnt go on that I wanted too due to a long line was Viper, but that was because I kept riding RB/GD because the lines were so short.
It seemed to ge getting busier as I left, vbut wasnt that busy if you werer at the park when they did the rope drop.

As for the new coaster, I have heard rumors it will be going in the theater and if that is correct I wonder if it will be open for FF, and since the ride suposedly wont be open till the movie opening which is July 18, then they have a long time to get it done.

Yes, last staurday. Yea, sorry, I forgot about fright fest. I saw the necropolis gates, skelotons and scream masks in the trees, most of terror twister's theming except the pitch blackness, lights, and music. No, I didn't see anything about the new coaster. The lines were terrible though. I was there from like 1-6 and they never improved.

The Dark Knight Coaster is not going in Theater Royale, it is going behind the theater. That said, it still would not suprise me to see the theater closed for FF, as it appears Susan Rosen has moved to the Southwest Ampitheater.

Where is theater royale. I know this sounds stupid but I usually spend my time more around county fair and southwest territory.
