Is your #1 either Maverick or Millie?

Saudi Arabia, then I'd head over to the UAE for the credits there Would you rather visit North Korea or Cuba?

They're both in eastern Pennsylvania. Silverwood and Six Flags New England

I'm anticipating retracked Apocalypse and repainted Riddler's Revenge to be the park's 2018 ride announcements. My best guess both open, along with the new Justice League ride, on the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend

What ride has (consistently) the longest lines?

Food that is good quality AND also reasonably priced

Giga: Millennium Force Hyper: Magnum XL-200 Hybrid: Twisted Colussus Invert: Banshee Wooden: El Toro and Phoenix Launched: Maverick Others: Lightning Rod, Incredible Hulk, and Valravn (GP loves dive coasters!)

Dubai looks amazing! That's another place I'd love to go sometime.

Exactly why I was excited to hear what Henry had to say about the ride, haha. He still liked it enough to make it his #1 coaster

Sounds like you had a very nice trip to SFMM. I've been wanting to get out there since 2002 (when I first saw this park in RCT2)!

I would do SFGAdv on Thursday, Hershey on Friday, and Knoebels on Saturday.

Both are Arrow multi-loopers that opened in the 1980s. Six Flags over Georgia and Six Flags Great America?

No. Have you ridden a coaster backwards?

Maybe a hand-me-down and/or smaller flat ride if they're lucky

I really lucked out with TTD its first season, as I remember waiting about 45 minutes for it (without a breakdown!) Longest line had to be close to 2 hours for Valravn last year on a hot day (crowds were bad that day parkwide). I've waited 90 minutes for Millennium Force on more than one occasion. Lines for Valravn and Millie (or any major ride at the Point for that matter) can be absolutely brutal if it's hot outside and the misters aren't working or are nonexistent.

Scrolling through this again and my mom asked me about Thunderbird at Holiday World (that is what was up when she came by)

Oh sure it is. Just follow the trail of body odor and desperation.

6/2 is Coastermania!.. I expect it to be packed, but no idea how the "special" stuff for Coastermania! attendees works. . . (do they close off certain rides to the GP for ERT for Coastermania! attendees?) Most of the ERT is before/after operating hours. I think the only exceptions are during Passholder/Resort Guest early entry although even that seems to not be the case this year. You should be fine. Getting a hotel (off-site) might be trickier than usual due to Ohio Bike Week, which is based in Sandusky and runs all of that week (figured that out two years ago when we weren't able to find any hotels on booking websites and then was able to get in the Breakers by going on CP's official website). The Point should be fine (Friday might be a little busier than the other days due to Coastermania)

I have one reason why Cinecitta World will be more successful than Hard Rock Park: Population base! Rome is a large metro area with no other large theme parks nearby, while HRP was in Myrtle Beach, a somewhat declining tourist area relatively far from any major city.

That's an insult to Fun Spot, you realize. Never been to either Fun Spot park despite going to Orlando in March almost every year for the last 15 years

Both were delayed past their originally announced opening (LR's delay pales in comparison to FT's delay, however) Six Flags Great Adventure and Freizietpark Plohn

Lightning Rod

The Ka and Toro special note makes little sense as those two don't even go upside down while most of the other rides mentioned in that part do go upside down. I wonder if SF will put more of those lockers in before high season.

IMHO, Fun Spot is more trying to be like a slightly larger version of those go-kart parks you see in Pigeon Forge, Wisconsin Dells, and Branson
