^ Yes entitled people were definitely rampant yesterday as well as fat people not being able to get on rides. Like you said Nitro is one of the more if not the most forgiving style of ride restraints in the industry. I really wanted to get on Zumanjaro yesterday since I have not ridden it yet this season. But the walk in the heat back there plus the idea that someone was going to be an entitled moron and hold up the line (theme of the day) just prompted us to head to Wawa early.

Just got back from the park with Nick (Genx24). It was pretty crowded today with 20+ minute waits for all the rides besides Batman, but at least we got on a good amount of rides. We got one ride each on the following: Joker Skull Mt Nitro Batman El Toro Some notes on the 3 hours we were there: - Really makes me sick how many entitled assholes populate the park on crowded days. Two different instances today of people not following park rules and then getting mad when employees responded. First on Joker a woman's phone fell out of her pocket during the ride. One of the attedents told her there is nothing they could do. She then leaves the station only to return 5 minutes later and walk through the exit platform right up to the ride attendent to complain again. Something extremely dangerous since the ride was cycling. Eventually security was called to handle it. Second was the dingus who brought his bag on El Toro and got upset when the employees told him he couldn't ride. - Attendants were making the line stop to wait in the shade on the Joker which I found odd. - double stacking galore today - El Toro Ryan's face said it all today. He looke mentally exhausted, I could totally understand why. - It was definitely a very "Six Flags" day. Every standard Six Flags problem you could find. - Oh an there was a grouper on Batman. Hope this isn't the new norm. I think it was due to crowds.

It took them forever to complete, but the ride is a smash hit with kids and families. If a park is willing to put in the time it's worth it. I don't think you would see one of these pop up at any major parks. Perhaps smaller parks though. -

Yes what he said. Flying Turns is a pain loading and unloading so try and hit that up early in the day. Impulse pulls line cause its still the new attraction. -
Guys, Guys, Guys. We could go the NBA route too and do "Big 3's"

RT's old footprint, to the right of Zumanjaro's queue. Only logical location that requires zero removals/relocations. That isn't necessarily true. That footprint is very tight so you'd be restricted with what you could do coaster wise. Way more likely for a midway with games and flats to go there. Next coaster expansion will most likely be anchoring Old Country.

Yes the fact that when you look up and can't see the top of the tower is soul crushingly scary. Everything about ARM screams terrifying. -

ARM's scare the sh*t out of me. Probably cause they drop you immeidately once you reach the top and its unexpected. -

Man, then you're really going to be angry when South Park craps all over it in one of their episodes this season. -

If we ever need a commentary on how sad Western Civilization is becoming, look no further than Pokemon go. There has already been numerous cases of gang members waiting near pokemon so when players show up they rob them. People have crashed cars playing this game while driving. As an educator seeing kids warped sense of reality over imaginary creatures that bare no real impact on their lives is frightening. I have no problem with Pokemon cards, the hand held games, things of that nature. But when people risk injury over something that isn't real, I don't get it. To each their own I guess. What happens when you catch them all? You get a pat on the back? -

I'd rather them keep Wildcat as well as Kissing Tower. Save the Wildcat structure for a future RMC. (I want my cake and to eat it too.)
