  1. Looks like the park opens at 12:00pm so extra time added to the end of the day and open until 8pm so in a sense you get a extra 30 min verses the normal opening time of 10:30am. HITP does attract people and its a pretty fun event. It should not be to crowded as its weekdays your looking at.
  2. Just a thought but the Solar panel project was going to be started back to front meaning starting in employee lot first then working its way back around into the main parking lots. If anyone has been to the back lot recently then you know its under just short of destruction with the massive 20,000 house project behind SFMM. Seems at min over 400 trucks are in and out all day and using the employee lot service road and Knudson and Feedmill as a exit to the Old Road. Its just a total mess right now in the back and soon as the trucks have other access or exiting options then perhaps SFMM might start with the panels.
  3. With so many offers this week/month place should be packed. Its a Bring a Friend Free until the 9th Its get a friend in for $9.99 Its get a friend in for half price. Check your app's to see which offers are available to you. Heads up allow a few extra minutes going from the freeway up Magic Mountain Parky as major construction heading up the hill might make for a slight delay.
  4. For Friday there is a Outdoor Classroom event should be under 1,000 rug rats for that. Also of Friday the park is having a private event and is open until midnight sponsored by some radio stations so perhaps you can win a 4 pack or poke around and find someone that won a 4 pack but only is a couple and they have extra tickets. One of the radio stations giving away tickets is 104.3MyFM and generally several radio stations are taking over the park so poke around. As far as Saturday word on the street its a bring a free friend both Saturday and Sunday so heed the warning and poke your eyes out now. The BAFF might only be for people that bought passes or memberships during the Spring sale so again poke around for that. Found another thing and person is reselling a pair for Friday guess its moot point if you have a pass or membership.
  5. Yes the area is out of the way since its in the back 20% of the park and you cant really do a loop around it. There are many many coaster fan boy sites posting updates. I'm not sure I can list them without getting banned and I have to much fun in here to do that. Just google it and I'm sure some pics will pop up.
  6. I work there in the parking lot and around 12:30 - 1pm all hell broke loose with wind, sleet, hail, and just glimpses of snow. Snow was non issue and melted with 20 seconds of hitting. It was colder than a witches tit and amazing thing was that people were still arriving at the park at the height of the storm. Park stayed open through advertised 6pm closing time and it was so-so cold. .... For other bean counters I'm a tier 1 worker and have been working in the parking lot since 2011. The park is very flexible with hours and bends over backwards to accommodate me with a very nice schedule by my choice. I have zero desire to go beyond tier 1, leave that for the kids
  7. Just looking for an update on this? No one responded when I asked last week. Thanks in advance. Found a link on the SFMM site (who would have guessed) it has all your perks listed for your level. Elite Passholes Perks for SFMM
  8. Last I recall it happened in February either 2017 or 2018 might have been a presidents day weekend and again it was a BAFF day. I came from SFMM at 7pm tonight and we had more cars that last time, so the CHP shut this down to early as today we still had a good 500 spots available. I have heard in the late 70's early 80's that most epic event was Loretta Lynn with massive crowd. As she was packing in around the country and Coal Miners daughter had also just come to theaters.
  9. Seems TC is still operational just perhaps at some points M-F it might be down. If you take the time from the parking lot you can watch 5-10 workers with table saws running and impact guns roaring. Also a cherry picker and perhaps a blue crane. Now I'm not a RMC freak so I sure dont know what boards or wood is being replaced but many boards seem to be being replaced. Again take the time from the parking lot to watch them work.
  10. Heading into the park tomorrow for a few hours. Rain should have it cleaned up nice. Anything to look for as I'm sort of just taking a walk around and not so much into rides except Honda Express.
  11. If I'm on schedule I shall be there as I been there done that Christmas day stuff. It will be drop dead slow early but should pickup around 2 as people look for crapola to do. And the park is open until 9pm. Maybe I could do a give away of a comp ticket on that day if I have any left.
  12. I sure hope not for SFMM. It seems that at least its trending on Yahoo so it will draw some remarks. With min wage in St Louis at $7.85 to bad all 6 entries cant get $300 bucks.
  13. I think most important would be that you must activate the pass at the host park that you purchased it from. So dont just show up at SFMM prior to activation at SFDK. Seems there must be some options on Diamond Elite that aren't available at SFMM as there is a price chop for SFDK vs SFMM at about $15 per year/membership/pass
  14. The new ride has the sounds of Rocket Rods at launch, but this seems to be Rocket Rods on steroids with banked turns. Looking forward to watch the build.
  15. Here is link to what KABC was doing at the park Thursday with just a weather report.
  16. It was just a live weather telecast with Leo Stallworth a general assignment reporter for ABC7 Eyewitness News. Talked with Sue of SFMM and just reminded people to stay hydrated and then featured tape of a couple gals at a strip mall talking of the weather, and showed the city of SCV breaking ground for a new fire-station. Pretty cool SFMM allowed them inside the park to do this forecast.
  17. I'm most happy to hear that the North American largest covered solar parking lot is taking place. A year from now it should all be in place so in sense a covered parking lot with shade (sort of). Currently seeing lines on the asphalt and fence lines so soon enough it will be going in. Happy SFMM is making a deference.
  18. Heading to the park about 1pm (3hrs from now) Sat 7/7. Anyone need to be my +1 send me a message. Going mostly to look for a specific Twisted shirt and grab a funnel cake or three.
  19. Well since nobody asked.... Yes 4th of July at SFMM was slammed and super crowded.
  20. The park isn’t crowded at all today. Both sides of Superman are open!! Holiday week and 85 degrees heading to 112 this weekend, the park was a ghost town today Monday 7/2. Lets see what tomorrow brings.
  21. Not say i can do it, but can you narrow it down with a picture of the shirt your looking for?
  22. And here is the distance from the worst area of gravel parking to the main entrance gate of Six Flags M.M. I traveled the main exit road from gravel and this was not on Feedmill. If you walked or traveled the tram (ya right) it might have been a hair shorter but over all gives you idea that Hilton Hotel is closer and also means that parking on service road by Wendy's is also a good deal. Also seems elevation change from crosswalk area of parking lot to main gate is about 24 foot elevation change walking up hill from parking lot.
  23. Hilton Garden Inn on The Old Road Well that pretty much sums up my request, thank you guys! In looking at some online reviews as of 1/1/2018 the Hilton discounted the shuttle service to Six Flags due to the park going year round and the Hilton unwilling to hire a full time driver. (beats me) I just looked at that Hilton site and it lists "Local Area Transportation". To me that sounds like Six Flags is still in play. Perhaps its just a summer thing. Worse comes to worse you walk up the hill or walk next door to McDonald's and offer someone $5 US dollars and I'm certain you will get a lift. So there is also the possibility to walk from the hotel? That would be great. Okay when you live as close to SFMM as I do and have nothing but time, you Strava it out and see how far a location is. This is from Six Flags main entrance drop off area which is about 37 feet from metal detectors to enter the park. And the end spot is HIlton Garden Inn check in area. So its 4/5th of a mile and elev change of around 140 feet.

  25. As far as needing a Taxi from the Hilton you will not need it. Long as its the Garden Hilton 27710 The Old Rd, heck they are closer than some parking spots at SFMM. Also they offer a free shuttle to main gate from the hotel and pickup service also. Travel from LAX I will look at later.
