Well, I went to SFGAm today. It was fun but packed because I totally forgot about the concert tonight and the line to get the wrist bands were packed in Southwest Territories for the first half of the day. I first rode TDK for my first time, it was ok and all but I expected more and possibly a more creepier in a sense. Presentation was cool except I forgot about that part and left my glasses in my car so couldn't see the screen to well. The part where the screen starts going in and out and the joker apears was cool and they tell you to escape that section and enter the part with the actual station. Queue line needs to be bigger however. Coaster itself was just ok as most of those kinds of mouses are. Themeing could have also been better. I heard while going on the top of the chainlift "Why so Serious?" and was pretty cool. I didn't hear laughing like people said though. I then headed over to Bull and rode that 2 times. I hopped on AE Red then went to Loggers Run. I left to go eat and didn't realize how long the line is to get back into the park at the parking boths. The parking lines were out of SFGAm's entrance onto Grand Avenue that's how far back they were. So we ate came back and the lines for going back in were a lot shorter so we decided to head back into the park. We rode AE Blue then AE Red again. We were already tired so we decided to head home. Great Trip though!

I didn't even go to Yankee Harbor today. Superman packed and Viper Packed. My dad doesn't like lines even when I want to wait.

Did anyone go to the Demi Lovato concert ?

How'd it go ?

^ I went and saw about 1/2 hour of the concert. Got my wristband around 7 PM. She did put on a good show. and she has a good voice. What puzzled me was that most of the crowd to see here were girls between the ages of 10 and 16, and by most I would say 90% of the people there. I figured it would be more boys of the same age due to the age that she is.

While it did rain a few times today, the park was not to crowded. Got in a lot of rides including AE (both sides), viper, bull, whizzer, Triple Play, Orbit and Giant Drop. Spent the last 1.5 hours on AER, as there was no line.

OMG, just reading these trip reports just gets me even more pumped for when I go next week!!!

I still cant get over the fact of how retarted the GP is when they wait 2 1/2 hours for TDK!

Has anyone else that the GP puts the word "the" infront of every coaster name... lol. Someone at school was like "I went to Cedar Point and rode THE Millenium Force" lol

Got in a lot of rides including AE (both sides)

racing??

[BrianPlencner]

^ Oh yeah. Eagle was racing EVERY time. The ride ops that night were great. They did a heck of a job pumping up the crowd. The ride op on the Red side would start by saying "Red side", and everyone on the train and in the station on that side would yell, whistle, cheer, clap, etc. Then, after it settled down...the ride op on the blue side would do the same thing...and the crowd would go nuts. It would then go back and forth with the ride op saying something like "Hey Red side....you going to beat the Blue side", and the crowd would go nuts. Blue side's ride op would come back and say "Ok Blue Side...lets see what you got!", and the crowd on that side would go nuts.

And this was every train between 7:30 PM and close. It totally rocked.

It is nights likee these that I love to go to the park and ride Eagle over and over. The employee's up there really made it a lot of fun. Kudo's to the Eagle crew that night. Keep up the great work!
