Satans Hockey

They should have just taken effects and props from twister and jaws since they got rid of both and done a sharknado ride of some nature lol

I went on mind eraser last year, front row cause it was a walk on and I didn't feel like it banged my head around at all. I'll pass on experiencing vr on it though. I hope everyone is on line for the vr mind eraser and joker all day while I just ride wicked cyclone and superman all day lol

I ended up getting the all season fast lane pass. Figure I'll do a few weekends during the year of hitting up Kings Dominion on Saturday and Busch Gardens Williamsburg on Sunday. Couldn't go wrong with the price and I figure I don't have to drive down Friday night to be there at opening Saturday now so I have save on 1 hotel night. Now I can just show up whenever on Saturday and if it's crowded it won't really matter. I've only done the trip once before but did Busch Gardens on Saturday and Kings on Sunday. I have to drive an extra hour on Sunday to come home which I'll gladly deal with if Busch Gardens is less crowded on Sunday. I can't wait for the season to start already.

I don't mind the changes but you're right about the people who are already boycotting. I've had some discussions with people who refuse to go to SeaWorld after the blackfish stuff and having the conversation is pointless because their minds are made up already. Ringling brothers is not the perfect comparison because they had even more legal issues with states banning them but people complained about the elephants so much but once they were gone attendance reflected that the majority of people were going because of the elephants.

I just saw they were promoting an all season fast lane plus for 115 bucks. It's only for Kings Dominion but doesn't that seem awfully low in price? It pays for itself in 2-3 visits.

When do they allow you to take the Stein home? I'm about 5 hours away and I plan on coming for the Halloween event but might not be back after that.

I just searched the thread apparently it was 40 bucks last year. I purchased 2 platinum passes this year. I had originally thought you also got discounts for quick queue and the animal tours at all the other parks but apparently that doesn't seem to be the case. I just emailed them to confirm. Anyone have any experience with this?

For any WWE fans here, there is a terrible show called holy Foley on the WWE network and Mick Foley takes his family to Knoebels for his birthday. The park looked great in the episode but the show itself is one of the worst reality shows ever.

Great report, that expo looks so much better than last years.

I just saw someone on the Facebook group page post it as well, I probably just assumed it was true since I've seen it posted a few times. I don't recall ever seeing or reading about one but has there ever been anything that went out over the lake?

Maybe the main street fireworks show during new years eve was a test to do it there from now on? Since like you said they only did them 3x during 4th of July weekend anyway. Here's a video in case anyone hasn't seen it You said earlier this thread needed a jolt and it definitely got it with this information today lol

Source? No actual source, just remember reading somewhere, I believe the great adventure history forums that they weren't allowed to do it / the state is a pain in the ass about it. I should have clarified that when I posted. I'd love to see them do it because looking down at the water on one of these would be amazing.

Very interesting, what's your predictions for something to go there if it's true? Maybe a wooden coaster of some nature? The state wouldn't allow it but a Zamperla Giant Discovery that swings over the lake would be awesome.

I had gone to the season pass preview night for the joker and got on it 3 times that night. I definitely enjoy it but I won't more then 10-15 minutes for it since you can't always pick what side you want to be on. I've found the green side has definitely flipped me more than the purple side. I've had several rides on the purple side where I didn't even flip once. I wish they would equal it out more. 1) El Toro 2) Nitro 3) Kingda Ka 4) Batman 5) Bizzaro 6) Joker 7) Skull Mountain 8) Superman 9) Runaway Mine Train 10) Dark Knight 11) Crazy Train 12) Green Lantern 13) El Diablo (I don't care about the coaster argument I just don't like being hung upside down for as long as I was on this ride, it's just not for me) I've never been on Road Runner Railway so I left it off. If we are including Zumanjaro on the list I'd put it at number 4 and bump everything else down. Between that drop and the beautiful view from up there it's one of my favorites.

Wow the baby lion and Tiger got so big. I feel like this last year flew by...

I wish I could have enjoyed it, I was completely focused on my rib injury. It seemed like a great woodie and I am excited to get back and try it, as well as Grizzly. I might try to take a bite out of one of Grizzlys trains, just to get some sort of revenge, and a little closure. http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1218348#p1218348 Since this trip report came up today in the other thread it reminded me of your issue with grizzly. The last post in it is about that guy breaking 2 ribs and not sure which he ride he did it on, he thinks it was hurler but I wonder if it was actually grizzly as well.

Just an fyi for anyone if they were in the same situation, this is the email they sent me. Doesn't really make a ton of sense though since the prices for the other parks are different from Williamsburg so I find it kind of odd that wherever you redeem it will just become your home park. "When you purchase your Passes Online, you are given an Order Number, and where the vouchers are redeemed that becomes your Home Park. That means if you redeem the Order Number in Florida, you are only entitled to the benefits of that Park. If you will purchase your Passes and send me the Order Number, I can redeem your vouchers here and mail you your Passes."

You can bring a copy of the voucher they email to you and bring it to the guest relations windows of the other parks. My friend was able to do this during our recent trip to Florida in November. Thank you! That's perfect.

I emailed the park but waiting for a response. Does anyone with a platinum membership (the one where you can visit all the other parks) know if you have to process the pass first at Williamsburg? I haven't bought one yet but I'll be in Florida before getting to Williamsburg and want to go to Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, SeaWorld and Aquatica so the platinum pass made the most sense as long as I don't have to go to Williamsburg first.

Yup plus the weather screwed them for 2 days last week as well.

This park looks more and more gorgeous the more I see it. So now that you have been to all of them which is your favorite of the Disney parks?

Last thing I had read was that the owners said they were opening in 2017 like normal. I'm not far from this place and I never heard of it until someone here posted about the possible closing.

Thanks, that would be perfect, that's what I'm hoping for. Opening day has been announced.. It's March 25th. I would have been more confident if I had realized that it was "325". They're all about playing up the "325" thing. Awesome, thank you! It's looking like I'll be able to get down there during opening week

Wow everything looks beautiful. Can't wait to see more.

Based on what I'm learning about these hardcore Disney people that's exactly what it's like for them, and it has the same end result. You should go look at one of the Disney boards and see how crazy it gets if you really want to go down a rabbit hole of craziness lol
