My Final SFGAm Adventure.

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Director_Guy on July 31st, 2009, 1:11 am
Beginning August 1st, I will take residence in Sherman Oaks, California. Therefor, I will no longer be making trips to everyone's favorite park Six Flags Great America. As a last blast attempt, I called up as many of my friends as I could so we can head out to the park one last time.

Image
Sadly, only my friend Ed showed up.

Ed had never been to Six Flags with me.
Image
As you can see, we were very excited.

Image
"Hey, Lundy! Did I mention I'm afraid of roller coasters?"
Image
Image
"We're gonna have lotsa fun with you!"
Image
Ed, it was just Triple Play. You can let go now.

Image
Run to the Hills makes Ed in the mood for Bull.
Right Ed?
Image
"YEAH!"
Image
"Wait, what?"
Image

Ed did have a terrifying ride, but, to his credit, he rode it.
Image

Image
My last Bull love!

Image
We then spun the crap out of ourselves.

Image
As payment, Ed took me on a water ride.
Image
Yay, about to be miserable!
Image
Backfired.

Image
Ed was then trapped inside a smoke bubble.

Somehow I convinced Ed to ride Raging Bull again...
Image
And he loved it!!

Image
"Oh, Trash Receptacle. You're not so bad. We've had some good times. Take care ol' buddy." We then shed some tears and went our separate ways.

Image
Bittersweet goodbye.

Farewell Six Flags Great America. A lot of great memories at this place. Growing up in Illinois would not have been the same if it weren't for this local escape. I wouldn't have met nearly as many crazy people just as weird as I am and I wouldn't have the many stories I could tell just from being at this place.

Working at Fright Fest, meeting strange singing people in the Demon line who later become great friends, having my online handle screamed at me from ride operators at Giant Drop, getting pepper sprayed by a guest, getting my looping coaster cherry popped, wondering who "That Guy over there" is, avoiding evil Trash Receptacles, getting yelled at for writing my website with my finger at King Chaos, having fun with some of the best people on the planet.

The list could go on and I'm sad to leave. But it's time to grow up and move on. Time to start living my life and become a better person. SFGAm will always be there in my mind as my own nostalgic get away, and I have the pictures to remind me of that.

Besides, now I'm closer to Disneyland.

Good luck in Cali!!!
Maybe some good Trip Reports form SFMM since you have a season pass that can
go all the way to new years.

The trash Can will miss you, too. But the Eagle queue got love with
TV's, Railings and overgrowth cut back this Year!
Party all Night, Sleep all DAY!!!
