As a season pass holder to cedar fair, I keep renewing because of the Capitol investments. If the parks I goto stopped adding major rides or update their parks then I would stop going. Hell SFSTL is only 30 mins from me, but I would rather drive 6 hours to KI or 9 hours to Cedar Point because they put money into the park and I, as a consumer, can see that happening. Yes SFSTL has added a few things, but there is a lot of other things they could do to make me want to go there more. I have been here for 4 years, only have been 5-7 times as a patron. For me: Capitol investment then attendance will come. That does not mean adding a $25 million dollar ride, it means making aesthetics better, adding a certain genre of ride, adding a major ride. I think we will see this change more, it seems to me that SFSTL has been getting more focus by the company, but it still needs a little more.

I finally meet Rob! that was amazing to meet him!! It was the perfect closer to the KI trip! Thank you!!

They may have stopped, I went over by the log flume, but they were strong about it at 9:30 time frame. If they stopped that is good. Are you going to diamondback or beast?

I need to rant a little, right now I am over by diamondback area, which is closed for early entry, you would not believe the amount of people cussing out KI and how much of a pain it is to wait another. 30minutes!! I am sorry, but the park does not have to give is early entry at all! Be happy that we get to be in the park, these "perks" could easily be removed, just remember that please!

They were more controlled today. For early entry as of now, Banshee is the only thing opened

^in terms of other events for pass holders, where did you here that? I want to know more!

That line your talking about it more overflow for gp. Line for racer is full que.

^add vortex to that also. The stunt coaster is close.

Question: are openings cursed??

I am going on a limb and saying that it has to do with the restraints. Only reason I say that, last night they were having minor problems with them locking last night. One or two seats would not lock. I am guess that is the cause. The RO was telling the crew the 1,1 was not locked. This by no means makes this official, it is a guess.

Well banshee just had its first breakdown! I was excited to be on it! For my shirt.

Were will you be at today in the park??

Marathoning banshee is interesting. Lets just say that I hurt a lot!!

That is awesome!!! Your third photo I am in it! The person with the red shoes!!! Lol!!

Good point since it is Good Friday, I would think tomorrow would be worse!

I have this feeling that it will be extremely packed today. I can't wait to ride beast!!

I am so tired, worn out, and cold. It was worth every second of it. The last hour of A Kid Again I was sitting on the ride. It was awesome. But that record will be shattered by someone soon. Lol

^ hate to burst your bubble, but I was able to squeeze 34 rides in! I wish I would have been able to ride with Rob!

Thank you everyone for updates today! Super jealous Rob that you and other media rode beast and diamondback! glad to hear that beast was smooth!!

I can't wait to get back tonight to get some nice night shots!!

You are more then welcome!! I was that person asking for photos when gatekeeper was going on. It is no big deal!

They both look amazing together! I have to agree the scream gets annoying. But I wonder if it is not just a media day thing??

I have not rode Montu in over 8 years. But this is my favorite invert. If I have rode Montu recently, I don't know what to say, it would be a close tie for me.

I am more then happy to provide photos. Not in line right now but here is the front of the station! Can't wait for tonight!!

Two more photos. The second one shows the first barrel roll, incredibly tall but has no lag like gatekeeper.
