7/7/08 Trip Report

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby SFGAmkrazed on July 8th, 2008, 9:23 am
Yesterday on July 7, I had the best visit to SFGAm that I ever had. Myself and 3 other friends got to the park around 11:00 a.m. The first ride we headed to (as always), was S:UF. My cousin was excited to get on so he ran into the line and we got separated in the line by a few people. So, we skipped some people to join back with him. (I didn't even think someone was going to have a problem with it because people do that everyday.) But anyway, this one lady called security on us and told him we had cut the line. So the guy told us to get out of line :evil: .
So with that said, we headed over to TDK. The wait was an hour and a half. In my opinion, this was too long because the ride wasn't even that great. :roll:
After riding TDK, we headed back to S:UF. We noticed that they had started using boarding passes in the line. (I wonder why :?: ) :wink:
After getting off S:UF, we headed to V2. The wait was about 15 minutes. Next, we rode Revolution.
After Revolution, we went fr a ride on AE. No line at all, just a serioulsy long walk. While we were headed for the blue train, it got stuck. This created a bit of a wait because everyone had to go over to the red side.
After riding AE, we went into HH at about 5:00 p.m. We rode Tornado and the pink and yellow bowl slide. (I forget its name.) We also had fun in the wave pool. After that, we ate in HH at about 6:30 and discovered that the food is expensive and is givien in large portions.
We left HH and got into Viper's queue throught the HH exit path. It was about a five minute wait. Then we went on RB and only had to wait for about 15 minutes. After RB, we walked-on GD. After that, we decided to wait another 15 minutes for RB because that ride was sooooooooooooooo AWESOME! (And the paint job is excellent.)
At around 8:00, we headed out of the Southwest Territory and rode on Demon. Once again, this was a walk-on. After riding Demon, we went over to Batman and waited for about minutes.
After all this was done, we left the park at 9:00 to start our hour-long drive back to Chicago.
It was a really great day and the lines and their rides were excellent, especially in the back. I encourage everyone, if you can, to go to SFGAm on a weekday because it will really make your trip more fun.

^I'm glad you had fun but I don't think it would've been your best trip ever if they booted you out of the park for linejumping..... :wink:

Im glad that the lady reported the line jumping and that the park security took action.

Once you let anyone skip, it will only get worse and people will skip more often. I know I dont want anyone skipping me, ieven if it is only a few people, unless they actually ask the people ahead of them if it is ok. Otherwise your friends can let people pass them so they can join you.

There is NOTHING I hate more than line jumping. Nothing. Don't like waiting in lines? Don't go on that ride or get a flash pass. Waiting 1:30 for Dark Knight is dumb. Sorry. 10 minutes tops. I still like it though. Too long to get to the actual ride though.
