Yeah, Bat should stay.

39-120min depending on weather Well, so far, it's supposed to be pretty nice that day. I'll make sure that I have my phone charged, and I'll bring my hat.

How have lines been during the middle of the week for Steel Curtain? I'll have 8 hours worth at the park on Wednesday, maybe 9. Never been there. I'd like to get at least 2 rides in as well as enjoy the rest of the park.

Man, I'm going to have a ball. Better believe that I'm going to do some of this. I'll have the better part of a day to do these things. ☺

Thanks for all of the recommendations. Now, I'm looking forward to the view.

Excellent, I'm going to see to doing that.

Quieter than I thought in here, especially with Steel opening..lol..I want to hear more reviews! Still, I'm planning a trip from MD on Monday. Can I easily enjoy the park within 8 hours? I plan to get there at opening. If there is any plan that can be shared, let me know. I plan on credit grabbing first, then do other things in the park. Contemplating hitting Steel Curtain about 2 hours after opening, as most will head there first. Smart, or no? Is Monday a 'summer camp' day? I've never been to Pitt. Any other things in the area that I should see? Thanks

Happy to hear this, as I may be driving up there next Friday. Need the credit.

Just realized that I never did a little review of Firebird. 2x better than Apoc with no head banging in the 4th to 6th row. A love tap in the 5th row I got after the corkscrew, but that's it. Don't have sensitive ears, so I'm good. First row wasn't too bad, but a little more of a jolt than the last 3 rows. 2nd row, I got smashed. All in all, I will ride, and reride this when I go to the park. I got in 8 rerides that day. Another guy had 35. When it was Apoc, I only rode on National Rollercoaster Day, and that's it. What does that tell you? Taking into account that this is the manufacturer's first go, I can see the mistake with that corkscrew;a reprofile needs to be done. Colors, landscaping, and 'Firebird' fire spitting mountain were all great. Music is appropriate for the ride, but miss the Apoc theme music. As always, I give any park a thumbs up for doing, or at least making the attempt to increase guess experience. This is a win. Fire effect looks great at night when they close at 9. They'll be open until 10 next weekend, with a full DJ setup. I'll be there! Additionally, many said for years that they would never do this. Guess they were wrong..lol..

Lol, a little, but better believe that I'm not complaining.

Thanks folks. I'll put the advice to good use.

I'll be here on Sunday. I have a meal add on with my ticket. Please, someone give me a recommendation on where to use it. Thanks!

Wait a minute. I've never seen trees close to those bunny hills. Maybe just never noticed them.

They have a military ticket program. $40 in free tickets. I'm thinking of squeezing Great Adventure in this trip too.

That's good news. A guy on my IG chat said that. Didn't make sense, so I asked in here. Thanks for that info. I can't wait to go in 3 weeks.

See, I want in in that. I'll double check before I leave. I may actually be able to go on Friday, but not until about 4.

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it. I was planning on getting there at 11 sharp, though, I have heard that the place really shines at night. Do you think that I can fill the day until sundown? If I were bringing my daughters on this trip, then sure, but just me I don't know. I heard the Haunted Mansion is closed on weekends. I'm a little salty about that.

Good to know. Yup, going alone.

Need some quick Intel for my first trip. I'm going the end of June, and have no real rush. Are the lines unbearable on Saturdays?

Nope, Batwing was known as the best one. Some people believe it's one of the best fliers overall.

Forgot something. Superman is great in front, but nothing like the back which is outstanding. Also, I've found that Firebird in the 5th and 4th rows, right seat are the best rides.

^^JG just said it all. Though, I'll say ops are moving quite good this year, but sometimes it depends on the crowds. More people=faster ops. Also, if you want the Mind Eraser credit, ride only in the front or second row. On Roar, the best ride is 3 seats from the back. If you plan on going to the water park, and actually don't want to rush, plan on an entire day. I actually enjoy every food place there, but I recommend going to the saloon to have brisket or pulled pork, while watching the show that they put on in there. It's a good production. If you are doing any drinking, Hurricanes in Mardi Gras is the place to go. Good music and atmosphere. Also, the place by the wave pool is a great place to have a brew. Ride Cyclone. Probably the best scrambler that I've ridden, especially when talking about the ride cycle.

There are more trees planted in several areas. In a year or two, they will have some height.

The one love tap you get is coming out of the corkscrew. Only 1st and 2nd row; didn't even get tapped in the 1st row, left seat, just right. The tap is nothing compared to the Mike Tyson punch you got with Apoc. So happy they converted this.

Firebird is 10x better than Apocalypse. I will ride everytime that I go. Met to do a ride report last week, but decided to try a few more seats this weekend. I'll write it up this weekend. Got 11 rides in last weekend. Apocalypse, 1-2 times PER YEAR. Park opening and National Rollercoaster Day.
