Finally got out to Knoebels with the kids for the first time this year. Daughter also decided to try out Flying Turns for the first time and loved it, so that totally makes the trip worth it. Also finally tried their Gator bites.... that.. not so impressed with, I really don't get why people thought they were so good.

Didn't get a chance to actually ride them with the new restraints yesterday(downfall of chaperoning a field trip and trying to get the kids on as many rides as possible) so I guess I'll have to try and get out there another time. On a brighter note, got my kid on superdooperlooper for his first inversion coaster(yeah, I know it's SDL, but still, I'm happy) so I guess there is always that bright spot to look at.

Looks like my first trip out to Knoebels will be on May 22nd with my kids. Might have been May 7th, but my son and paintball had other plans. I need my Phoenix fix damn it!

Looks like I get to chaperone my son's Music in the Parks field trip to Hershey Park in May. Went last year when the school went(not as a chaperone, which was a surprise to my ex) and I can't wait to head back there again. I really enjoy the park and I can't wait to get on them coasters again... along with some flats because I'm sure the kids will want to go on some. Separate side note, I do love seeing Bill always talking up Knoebels.. it makes my heart happy

God I can't wait for Thursday, now just need to wait on my brother to know if he's coming along or if I am flying Han Style.

I think the most likely ones will be the ones they cut off last year that can easily be closed off again. I'd say major rides in Holiday in the Park areas are likely to be open (except Twister... it'll be broken, it's goo at that), I actually think El Toro and El Diablo will be open too. I would bet on Kingda Ka, Zumanjaro, Bizarro, Safari Off Road Adventure, Bugs Bunny National Park, Skyway and Runaway Mine Train being a crapshoot. Some of those were closed during the bonus weekend last year and the Golden Kingdom can easily be closed off. I'm assuming this is mostly a staffing thing, obviously I'm speculating though. I wouldn't say there's anything that's guaranteed to be closed but I think those are the most likely areas. that was kind of what I was thinking, so it's one of those things where I am hoping for the best prior to the announcement of what they are actually doing. Kind of hard for me to get up any other day this first week so I'm hoping at least for el Toro and I can deal with the rest being a crapshoot.

I have that weird feeling we'll know which rides they are the day of

Plan on going the 24th since I have hockey on the 23rd. After seeing their letter about only select rides, I'm hoping to see a full list so I can determine truly what I am doing.

Walt Disney World(all parks) Universal Studios Orlando Islands of Adventure Sea World Orlando Busch Gardens Tampa Fun Spot America Watermania Wet and Wild Busch Gardens Williamsburg Hershey Park Dorney Park Sesame Place Knoebels Six Flags Great Adventure Astroland I think that is everything

Batman: The Ride at Great Adventure. Actually, this was also my first ever coaster with inversions that I ever went on as well.

Saw Deadpool so I would say

That might honestly be one of my favorite scenes from that movie and there wasn't really anything even to it

March: Going to hit up Great Adventure on the 24th(praying to the gods) April: Going to hit up Knoebels for it's opening weekend May: Hershey Park with my son(hopefully) June: 12 day trip to Orlando with my kids so all the major parks down there that I can I'm sure I'll make a couple of more visits but that's definitely in the cards right now.

I really hate to jump in on this, but considering it's been explained how the structure and words of the statement comes off as a fact, several times I might add, and you still haven't come to grasp this, I'm really starting to question if you are just arguing for the sake of arguing, or you are trolling. Take your pick, but several people explained why they read it as a fact, with pretty darn good reasoning and you still don't get it and seem to just want to pick an argument with them. EDIT: spelling errors.

Well I have no clue why we are talking about The Joker since it's all the way out in California... any progress on Total Mayhem? Six Flags changed Total Mayhem to the Joker. RMC accidentally painted the wrong track colors

I heard The Joker went vertical, is it true? I totally haven't read the last few pages nor even the posts on this page, but I really wanna know!!!

I really need to remember to check the forums everyday... Don't check it and I see people talk about Bizzaro possibly getting removed. I know it's not the popular ride it once was, but I do enjoy that coaster... mainly because I like Bizzaro(the character). Thank god for Ryan... even though I nearly had a heart attack.

See, I don't Bizzaro as a villain.. I see him as a misguided and misunderstand.. um.. thing. If we all just gave Bizzaro a chance, I'm sure he would show us the good in him... or something...

I'm the type of guy that would announce a name and then completely have a different idea like this, just to mess with people, so somewhere in the back of my mind, I'm hoping that's what Six Flags was doing, but I have a feeling they just realized this would be a better idea and did a quick sudden change. Either way.. SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!!!

So from what I've read, I heard calling today busy would be an understatement

Or, you could follow their entirely reasonable policy, and not abuse the pass. The park could not survive if it offered shared passes, so it does not. On what grounds should you be exempted? This, so much this.

I Prevail - Blank Space

I'm all for this. People abuse the system, it's nothing new. If someone can get away with something in order to gain an advantage, they will. Will this stop every single person? Probably not. Will it make it harder? I believe it will. Will certain groups of people bitch and moan about it? I think we can all agree this will happen. Should Six Flags cave to those people? Hell no.

Thanks appreciate it. If all else fails, I'll drop money on the Flash Pass, but I should be getting there slightly after opening, maybe I can get away with out it. Thanks again.
