I guess Gatekeeper isn't that bad. It is, like you guys have said, it is still fun and visually entrancing. It also gave me a great reason to go to Cedar Point over Hawaii back in 2013. And visiting in the opening season, it did seem to please visitors. So, Gatekeeper is not as stupendously horrendous as I may have come across depicting it. On the subject of Gatekeeper...
