Satans Hockey

Not a medical episode and ruled an accidental drowning... https://www.wgal.com/article/hersheypark-girl-who-died-identified-sophia-subedi/65529313 "Multiple witnesses who said they were at the boardwalk at the time of the incident said they thought the lifeguards lacked urgency when responding. In a statement, Hersheypark addressed these claims, saying "it is very unfortunate to hear the negative speculation regarding our response, which is categorically and provably false." The spokesperson for the park reiterated that the lifeguard response was immediate, professional and consistent with their training."

I'm planning on going on a Saturday or Sunday, from what I've seen they started closing more of the park during the weekdays.

With these prices that include access to all all Six Flags and Cedar Fair parks I wonder if they give memberships access to all od them as well unless they want everyone to cancel their memberships anyway. I'm waiting for more details but it's certainly looking like a better deal to just cancel my memberships after seeing these prices for the other parks.

I've never visited before but I'm just going to pick a day in August and go to play it safe because I just won't be surprised if they just close the whole place after Labor Day.

I don't know if it's true but saw a lot of people saying she had a medical episode first.

I'm waiting to see if we get an answer about us getting access to all the cedar fair parks before I decide on canceling my gold memberships. The new season passes cost just as much as what I already pay and will include them so if they don't include them I'm better off just canceling. Also might take all of 2026 off too.

This is awful, can't even imagine going out to have a fun day at the park and losing a loved one let alone your own child...

I've never been here despite being a few hours away, going to try to get down there at some point soon.

They still have the new flash opening. I really don't think most people care about the rest of the rides and it's not like most were even open last year. Will people travel in for the park? Probably not but it's always been a regional park anyway so I don't think attendance is gonna be that different. It's still the best local park in this area.

Makes sense, the local police announced the wrong time and then they did it earlier to keep the crowds away. I'm sure people are going to be salty about that lol Here's a video...

Tomorrow's the day and everyone can finally move on. Between 9am and 10am they are imploding the rest of what's standing.

Just got an email that my memberships are going up to $12.99 in April. I'm probably canceling before that. Simply don't go enough to justify paying that much even though it's not that far.

There's some days with $69 or $79 for general admission with one time access to each house but yeah I think that should really have unlimited access for that price. At least that I could justify a bit. Plus how many times are people really going to go through the same 4 houses? The vast majority would maybe go through 2x. Once to see how it is and once to see if they missed anything on the second time. Maybe they go to their favorite house a 3rd time? The unlimited cheapest price is $99. I paid $80 the last time I went to Halloween Horror nights in Orlando in 2023 and that was unlimited access to all the houses plus access to rides, scare zones and shows. I know it's Vegas and things are more expensive but geez. The biggest difference and plus about this would be at the very least there should be no conga lines like there are in Orlando so this should be much more catered to letting the groups in spaced out so they get to experience all the scares properly.

Gotta be pretty fun to be a team member and one of the first to experience a completely brand new park before everyone else. Pretty rare these days to get that opportunity. I'm looking forward to going but will probably wait till maybe Jan/Feb of 2026 if they have just single day tickets for Epic available then. Right now you have to buy multi day tickets that include the other parks.

I'm with you on a lot of this but saying you wouldn't be sad if the park was just leveled is just silly talk. The park has its up and downs but it's still always been a fun place to go that is local and it would be absolutely horrible to have it ever close. I know we have other parks semi close to us but most of them turn into trips that are miserable to do there and back in the same day.
