In case anyone missed it, their new ride for 2023 looks to be a retheme of the kids Wild Wheelz Arrow car ride. Sounds like some of the dinos will be animatronics!

I know wild mice have crappy capacity but I certainly hope this is some kind of system glitch...

^ I think that's awesome! I hope they leave them up all year. Much better than some random benches strewn about. It really gives the park some character and a nice place for your group to sit and chat.

can adults ride . . . Woodstock Express without a kid?
I can attest that, on my only trip in 2019, I was able to ride solo on Woodstock Express. In fact, it was a Zen ride. Not my proudest moment but you do what you gotta do. At least the track is far from the midway so only the ride op shared my shame.

And I wonder how much longer Batwing stays around. It usually opens an hour later than the other rides
Guessing it’s open later than everything else because it’s farther back in the park than everything else. Probably smart time management to not open the ride when no one would even show up in line for the first 30 minutes (really, who wouldn’t stop first at Superman before going to Batwing?) and not able to fill a full train for the next 30 minutes? Maybe giving them too much credit but the schedule probably comes from actual rider volume. Seems like a lot of parks are more smartly scheduling their limited staff where the crowds actually are at the start of the day and later opening rides that take a long time for the masses to work their way back to.

Sounds like it is getting rethemed to The Flash. Probably a new paint job to fit too.
The Flash retheme (basically) confirmed!
Pictures taken at the park yesterday.

Or food at the parks?
I had some of the best rotisserie chicken I've ever had at Cotton Blossom BBQ at WoF. I actually went back in and complemented the staff!
At SFGAm, the chicken sandwiches at Strutters are always good. If you like extra flavor, ask for them to make it spicy. Doesn't seem to be on the menu anymore, but they will make it that way if you ask. I also enjoy the Italian beef sandwich at Big Lou's. Quintessential Chicago food. Oh, and just recently I had the buffalo chicken quesadilla from Fiesta Fries Cantina. Surprisingly good and a ton of food, more than enough to share and only $1 on the SF meal plan.

the usual line jumping
So, is line jumping a regular problem at CGA? I thought it was just my unfortunate timing as there seemed to be a lot of school groups that day. When I was there for my only trip in 2019, I experienced the worst line jumping I've ever seen. I was line jumped in almost every line, including most rides, food and even the security line. In the security line, several teen girls line jumped ahead of someone with clear disabilities. Pretty shameless. All the line jumping made for a very frustrating and disappointing day as I was excited to see CGA since SFGAm is my home park and I've been going there since it opened in 1976.

Avalanche closed for the season is confirmed. At the top of the Avalanche page on their website (and on the roller coasters page) it says...
"Avalanche will be closed for the 2021 season."

Moose riders rejoice! The website no longer lists them as "closed for the season".
