Isnt it already the world smallest dueling hybrid, which would make it the first park with three hybrids? Just as I hit the submit button I realized that yes thats all already true, but decided not to edit my post in an effort to let some geek get his rocks off by correcting me. It's like clockwork. All I'm waiting on now is nerdy jokes about an aquatrax coming to the park. Because that joke. Is. Still hilarious... -

Guys, I really appreciate all of the advice. I will have to get with Emily about our flight. To be honest, I'm not sure our return flight is booked, yet. We were waiting on our passports, just in case, and we just got them last week. -
^ I wouldn't get your hopes up. I've been to SFGam at least ten times within the past several years and crowds are kind of strange there. Whenever I first get there I can ride several rides with almost no wait. Then, usually by noon, the place just gets packed without even noticing. I've never experienced any near station wait days at this park.

Are there any decent restaurants close to the park? This isn't CP or BGW, so we'll leave for dinner and come back, as per usual. So is Tim Horton's more or less like a Starbucks? (with 'more or less' depending on your tastes) Do they offer my sissy boy coffee options like almond milk and half flavor? Is there anything we have to do with our credit cards when we go to Canada? I have no idea how the US/Canada currency exchange works, so if anyone can offer any input I'd appreciate it. We're going to the Canada side of Niagra Falls for one night before Toronto. This is our first trip out of the US. I also just wanted to confirm again that we have to be at the airport 3-4 hours early to get through customs. (wtf) -

Sounds legit. There's no way a structure that high in the middle of a flat lake would have measures in place to prevent damage from lightning. -

Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread

^^ Your legs will thank you. Seriously, try drinking a Coke after you get a riding headache. It works for me almost every time. But, I rarely drink anything but black coffee and water, so that probably plays into it. I've been wondering if Hershey's new coaster will be testing before West Coast Racers. -

We like antique cars too, Kim. They're classic rides that have kind of a 'fun for all ages' appeal. At this point, I don't think our Antique Cars will ever change. I know at first everyone was happy to at least have some form of the ride in operation, but now I don't think many people seem to care about them at all. I forget they're even there. KI did it right, as per usual. I'm a big fan of KI and an even bigger fan after they brought back their antique cars. I've always been on the fence and had trouble deciding if KI was my favorite park, including convenience of a weekend trip, their haunt, their best bang for the buck FL pass, and of course their ride/coaster offerings. Emily feels the same way. Next year it will be the clear winner for me. But, I'm think we're skipping it this year so we don't get burned out from going a couple times each season. That is, unless we can't get pregnant between August and The Haunt, which will be more likely than not the case. Back to SFSTL... -

Emily and I just got an email from CP asking us if we wanted to upgrade our Breakers room from a regular tiny double queen room by paying an extra $60 per night for a lake view suite with a balcony. Yes. -
What is your next park?
prozach626 replied to onewheeled999's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I'm probably over hyping it, but Screaming Eagle is my jam! Middle of the train for comfort. Watch out for those wheel seats. Ride it at night. Remember my tip for The Boss, as well. -

Cedar Point in two weeks. 2 days at Breakers. Two days of FL+. Taking my sister-in-law and her husband. Both have never been. (braggart) -

Of course they were upset. Step 1 for getting what you want in 2019 is to yell and scream when you're confronted with doing something wrong. Trust me. I know. -
B&M hypers really do it for me. Diamondback is king in my book and I even like Intimidator. The only one I could never really get behind was Apollo, BUT we usually have Quick Queue that makes you sit in the middle. That said, did you ride Nitro in the front and/or the back seat? I haven't ridden Nitro yet, but that makes a drastic difference on B&M hypers. Front seats give you a superior feeling of freedom and the back seats are where you can usually feel the most forces. Glad you enjoyed the park. I'm looking forward to my first visit in 20 years this summer. Noted.

Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
prozach626 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I couldn't agree more and I'll add Screaming Eagle to that list. I was thinking about the complaints of the length of the new Giga. This isn't SF Great America where every ride is 30 seconds long, so I take that into consideration when looking at the park as a whole. Diamondback and Mystic Timbers have pretty good length. Banshee is long for its coaster type. Beast is exceptionally long. They can't all be four minutes long. -

Dollars and cents. Don't be naive. Your posts about the themeing have no cause. You're just bitching about what everyone else already knows and you refuse to accept the way things are and focus on the positive. Everyone has a right to complain, but you're just ranting. It serves no purpose.
