You've picked the perfect time to go to BGT. By then, 99% of Florida students would be back in school since Ol' Jeb loves child slavery. Anyways, you should get most of the park's credits done in no time. Although, keep an eye out for tourgroups and other tourists, as they might make the lines a bit long. From my experience, if you want to creditwhore the park fast, heres my way. First, head off to SheiKra since most crowds would be there all day. Then, head over to Timbuktu and ride Cheetah Chase since that ride has poorer capacity. Following Cheetah Chase, see if Scorpion is open, if it is, ride it. Scorpion can still get 1/2 hour long lines since Busch only runs one train on it. Following Scorpion, head over to Kumba. The station would be deserted and if you're lucky, you may get a train to yourself. After Kumba, if you need a credit boost or love Arrow, ride Python. Following Python, hit up the Skyride in Stanleyville and head toward Montu. Montu should have little wait. Following Montu, head over to Gwazi. Gwazi is a bit iffy on operations and Busch would usually operate one side on slow days like the days you're going. If you get one side, then great, you've ridden the pain-master that is Gwazi. After that, you can ride the flat rides/water rides, or you can go on to the next park. BGT is pretty easy to creditwhore on days like these.

^No, the school district people are slave drivers. Most schools are starting as early as next monday, others start the monday after on the 14th. Have fun in Florida while I'm being bullied/bored.

Sure, the coasters are mediocre. But come on, Elitch's isn't THAT bad. SFEG is NOT Fantazy Land!

You got the Boomerang credit, lucky bastard . I will agree that SFEG is a gem in the SF chain, it has clean midways. I would agree with you on most reviews, Twister II was a little bit fun though, but then again I sat in the back. Great pics.

I'm interested in the Midwest trip. Although a question, what if you're 17 right now, do you HAVE to get a form signed? Because by the time the trip comes around, I will be 18.

Looks like you had a blast, SFNE looks like such a great park.

*Waits paitently for the info on the Midwest Trip* Figured out the moolah yet? I figure that the US trip would be a little cheaper, yet food and souviners would cost about the same.

Thanks to Tropical Storm Chris, I *MIGHT* get an extra day of summer! Please head near Florida, Chris, give students a longer summer!

^Weeow, the reason why the kid let the zombie ACEr ride with him is because the kid wanted the airtime. Gotta love old PTC trains...

Yeah well, my rental car got smashed with it. Boy, that car has been through everything, including wandering off into a field...

90 minutes here too on DD during HHN. I seriously like how well themed it was, despite the messyness with all of the empty cups and trash around the trash and fountains.

My friends' general public quotes from back when I was a mindless 12 year old that was all "MONTU R0X, OMG!!!!1111111" My friend and I looking at Scorpion; Friend: I heard Scorpion's loop collapsed a few years ago. Me: Is that why they are tightening up the bolts on the loop? And one on Tanganyika Tidal Wave (Shoot-the-Chutes ride); Friend: A few years ago, a boat capsized in the splash area. Me: Why? Friend: Because the brakes are always on heavy. Needless to say, I believed it, but I rode Scorpion anyways. Same with Tidal Wave...

F*** Sonic and Mario, this guy is the greatest platform hero of all time.

^I think you're nuts for putting Gwazi over SheiKra, my order for best rides in the park; Kumba, Scorpion, Montu, SheiKra, Cheetah Chase, Gwazi (Lion then Tiger) and Python are tied for last becasue they both suck.

Hehe, fun trip report, I think Tommy and James would dig those shorts .

SPECIAL THANKS to Milo of Westcoaster for uploading these videos. Anyways, were all familiar with cheesy coaster specials. The endless TOP 10 XTREME! shows on the Discovery channel with the ditzy girls that are all "OMG DIS RIDE! AHHA AHH AHH!" Well, cheesyness was in this 1980's special too. Hosted by Matt Dillon, its just funny to listen to this actor think he's a know it all when hes like "Uhh" every few seconds. Also, for those of you looking for some unique coaster music videos, you'll love these links. Including classic footage, a Zombie ACEr, and more!

WTF!? Why would they start school back up on a Friday? It's bad enough to start school back up after summer recess. They couldn't just wait till Monday to start class? On a side note, my school had Saturday school. Talk about a bummer Even worse, why start before August 20th (or, the fourth week of August)? Also, why not start summer on Memorial Day like many Americans do? Oh well, one more week until having to face the bully and the teachers for one last year .

In Florida!? Excuse my Spanish, but f***ing awesome!

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Wii) Excite Truck (Wii) Duck Hunt (Wii) Sonic Wildfire (Wii) Starfox Command (DS) Diddy Kong Racing DS (DS) Thats just a few though...

Oh Holy crap...

E3 was awesome and all, but the big names always own E3. Besides, theres a rumor floating about of E3 coming back, but in a much smaller form. It would be like Kentia Hall, really, only small and obscure developers and companies that don't make systems. Oh well, this means Nintendo is going to do another SpaceWorld event soon!

August 7th here too...

An old Compaq Presario I got back in 2003. Its a piece of crap now... -40 GB HD (more than 50% is used up) -632 MB of RAM (added 512 MB more RAM in 2004) -Crappy old CRT monitor (800x600 too ) -Generic and crappy Intel graphics card... I'm waiting for it to crap out and then buy a new laptop for college.
