    • It was a $65 add on to my $155 Gold Pass price earlier this year around Feb 2nd.  It is cheaper to add on the All-Parks then adding parking by itself or buy a separate SFMM pass.  I canceled my SF membership after I was able to add All-Parks for $65 per year.  They keep increasing prices this year so I am sure what I paid is not current. The All-Parks does add parking but it really doesn't say it on the Knott's website.  This is my pass add ons page from the Knott's app.    
    • Hell yeah! Now stay open until I can ride on the 22nd/23rd.
    • The wait is over! AlpenFury will be opening this Saturday, July 12th! Season pass holders can also get exclusive ride time on AlpenFury from 9am to 10am on select dates! Who's ready to ride? 
    • I definitely think the park will receive some type of investment over the next couple of years. It's just a matter of what form that investment will take. And yes, there could definitely be a new coaster coming.
    • Honestly they've poured decent money into the park the last few years.    So, who knows. I think good things will happen between now and 2030. 
    • I would say Labor Day has gotten quite a bit more crowded over the years but I think you're right in saying it clears out in the evening... But maybe not as early as you'd think.  August 25th will likely be less busy overall but less of a drop in crowd as the evening goes on. 
    • I would say that 2027 is a strong possibility for SFSTL to finally receive a major investment from the new owners. So, what type of new attraction might be coming? Let's look at the possibilities.  First off....  Any type of Giga coaster would be highly unlikely. Gigas are rarely built anymore. The fact that Over Texas is getting one still seems like a dream, even though construction crews are hard at work building it as I type this. What's more, I don't see SFSTL recieving anything close to the $30 million plus investment needed to build such a coaster. A hyper coaster? This would be a long shot for similar reasons, but WOULD be in the realm of possibility.  RMC Boss? I consider this a stronger possibility than the first two. A smaller Dive Coaster such as Dr Diabolical or Iron Menace could easily fit into this park. It would also be budget friendly.  Something from Vekoma, Premier or S&S could also find its way into the park. It largely depends on how much money CF is willing to invest. Telltale signs to look for going into next year are as follows...... Permanent ride closures. Some buildings and or restaurants could also be closed and removed. Construction fences would soon follow. These would be accompanied by signs reading "We're Building Excitement For 2027" or some such. This is all based on what happened at Six Flags Over Texas when we found out we were getting a new "Record Breaking Dive Coaster". Anyway, the next couple of years should be pretty exciting for SFSTL.
    • Will be fun to see what, if anything, happens with the area in question. It has been announced that ACE CoasterCon in 2027 will be at SDC and SFSTL. Now some people assume that this means something new will be put in place by then. That is not necessarily true. ACE doesn't get secret phone calls about future plans, on the other hand it would be nice timing. I am sure the bigger draw for this pick is SDC which will have the new hotel and possibly a new water park, or some other attraction ready to go by then. They also take into consideration other area enhancements and the two new Vekoma coasters at Lake of the Ozarks will be good to go by then which will give attendees from far away a chance to ride them while traveling between the two parks.
    • That's so bizarre to me because every time I've ridden it this season I thought it's been running really well. I do almost always sit in a non-wheel seat, usually front row or second to last row. I know some people will poo poo that as nonsense but you can tell a difference. Just ask Bert about front row Voyage versus second row Voyage, lol.  I do agree that they need to do some work on it for the 50th, at least a good paint job for God's sake, and maybe some special merch?
    • Really!? I didn't see that Knott's was doing that! I priced out buying a pass from SFFT ($95 plus $110 for "All Park Passport") and SFMM ($110 plus $110 for "All Park Passport"). Looking at the Knott's page, it appears that they sell a Gold Pass for $175, so the "All Park Passport" is another $65? I'll be sure to check out all options to see what's best when the next round comes. I don't eat or drink at parks, so it's mostly just entry and parking that I care about (and parking isn't a requirement for me at Knott's).
    • All this 'future' talk reminds me that next year is Screamin Eagle's 50th Bday and I really hope it gets some attention during off-season.  I rode it in April and it was one of the worst rides I have ever gotten from it.  Disappointing for sure.   It felt like it had square wheels, worse than the Boss on a bad day.
