Extremely short but a nice end of the day

Let us know how your day at the park was.

We were passing by Six Flags on the way home from by Mom's friends house in Antioch and I had to beg my dad to let us go(even though I was driving and I could have just not gotten on I-294 :lol:). We got there at 9:15 and were given a 30 minute time limit as to avoid traffic. We ran to Raging Bull and it was running 3 trains with the line where the queue houses end.

About a 15 minute wait. We didn't have enough time to ride again so we hit Gaint Drop twice which was a walk on, my friend had never been on it so he didn't know what to expect. Same old GD pretty good ride doesn't really get old.

Time in park 35 minutes- 1 ride on Raging Bull, 2 rides on Gaint Drop, pretty good for the amount of time we had and I wasnt expecting this at all.

That is something I wish that I could do. Living an hour and a half away and hardly ever going near the park for other reasons, do not permit me to do that. Not bad considering what you had to work with. :)

be glad you didn't stay later. I got there at 3:00 after I got off of work, and had to park in the overflow lot. Once we got into the park, everything I had any desire to ride except IW, AE, and viper had about hour long lines, which was much longer than I was expecting. I just wound up spending the evening riding viper and wandering around the park.

He did, I'm just saying that he should be glad it was light when he got there because it really picked up and was the busiest I've seen the park durring a week day in a long time.

Of course the first hour or two usually isn't ever too bad.

9:15 PM means night time, means not light out, means last hour of the day.

I stand corrected. I assumed AM (he never said). I just realized that the park doesn't open until 10:00. I also left by 8:30 just because of the crowds.
