Oh awesome! I've seen your posts here and there referencing this trip, and it sounds like you had an outstanding time. Looking forward to the full report.
Great report, informative and entertaining. He light switch effect was fun, well done. That takes some planning. SeaWorld looks like so much fun every time someone writes about it, even if there are some caveats.
Dorney's fine. Possessed is great. Talon's great. The log flume is great. Hydra's fine. It's f*cking Allentown, Pennsylvania. It's not a cool town like Elysburg or something. Cut it some slack.
Lakemont Park? Agreed.
Yeah, Lakemont can use the money much more than it can use that ride. There's probably a broker's fee or some such, but still, it'll help.
I'm with you there. I think moving it to Maryland squeezed some profit from a ride that wasn't making any money in Chicago. I don't think they can squeeze any more out of ot with floorless trains.
That said, Six Flags has already done the calculation, and they know for sure what all their options would yield.
The nerd in me wonders how large these frisbees can actually get. I wonder what the "cap" is before the wear and tear on the motor and structure is too much.
Let's build 'em bigger and find out!
It's under Valravn. From the parking lot, look at the front gate and go to your left around the fence. Down by the marina is a small entrance gate. Millennium Force is very close to Valravn, so it puts you right there.
Yuuuuuuup. I don't understand why people feel the need to hate on things. If it's not for you, then it just doesn't factor in your decision to go or not. That's the end of it.
This is the thing. I've been to a number of parks solo, because I find getting away from everything relaxing, and I work for a travel company so they give me lots of time off and discounts on travel. A couple of parks I've been to solo I ended up taking the family to later when they ended up being better than I thought they'd be.
Sweet! Thought you had sworn off the place. Glad you gave them another chance. Ozarkians are as a whole awful people, but there are a few good ones here too.
Oh, and Quicksilver so we can keep this game going.
