Superbatboy Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Dare Devil Dive at SFOG!! It was an hour and fifteen minute wait while everything else in the park was a walk-on or station wait. Slow, slow moving line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravity55 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Mammoth at Holiday World in 2012-2 hours and 15 mins. By the time we got halfway through, it was so congested that it was nearly impossible to leave the line even if you wanted to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesomefaceninja7 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 About an hour for Colossus at Thorpe Park. Some kids were putting leaves up to their mouths and making a squeaky sound. Â If the queue gets long for this coaster, they even have a food shop in the middle of the queue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeansproutMidget Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Longest waits...hmm...  -Maverick: 3 hours  -Skyrush: 1 1/2 hours  I've waited for 45 minutes for a lot of rides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraroc Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 4.5 hours for Volcano back when it only had 4 rows. The day before, we got 2 hours in when it went down for the day due to a roll back. Not fun! That was a rough era for PKD. OTSRs for FoF, and only 4 rows on Volvano. Yuck!  They actually only had one row for each train on Volcano? I've seen pictures of Volcano with only one row per car but I thought that was when they were testing the coaster out. I had no idea it actually operated like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveg1988 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Took my sister three hours during fright fest at SFGA to ride Green Lantern. I had won two tickets to go to the park, so I just wandered around, knowing every line would be like that. 5 minute line for runaway mine train and no line for go-karts. had I known that rolling thunder would be gone within the next year or two I would have given it a farewell ride. I made a vow that day, to never go to SFGA during fright fest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I305forever Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 2 hour wait for Superman during Fright Fest. Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virus Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Fury325 on Season Pass Preview day. About 4hrs, the line actually had to go through the maintenance roads by the ride. Cold, and INSANE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WOFanatic Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 4 1/2 hours for Batman: The Ride at SFOT during Spring Break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookiex Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I guess I should consider myself lucky that I've never had to wait more than 1 hour, which to my recollection has happened twice.  Space Mountain at WDW in 2003, sign said 45 minutes when we entered (this was just before closing) but it broke down for fifteen minutes halfway through. I seem to remember staff members walking through the queue and informing people that the ride would be down for a short while, which was nice.  Kärnan at Hansa Park this year, second time of the day. Line was always around 60 minutes and I couldn't wait until just before closing to ride it again so I decided to waste another hour in that queue. Worth it!

KBrylczyk Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Top Thrill Dragster, opening year. Three and a half hours, through every switchback. Â I don't do that crap anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP Maverick Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I think the slowest line I waited in was for X at SFMM in 2002. I happened to be there in August when it re-opened. Â I have waited 2.5 hours for many rides. I don't think I have any over 3 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GCI Wooden Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Superman Ultimate Flight at SFGAm. I must have waited nearly 2 hours for that stupid thing. Â It wasn't worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspence1127 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 The longest waits I've ever had is at Hershey Park on a really busy day. Â I waited 1:30-2:00 hours for Laff trakk opening day. Which was probably not worth it since its a spinning coaster and I wasted 2 hours that could've been spent riding any intamin there (because looking at the wait times all the other lines were about 15 minutes!) Â I also waited about 1:30 for Great Bear. It was very busy and the ride ops were not doing a good job. They would never have 2 groups of 2 ride together and single riders never went to open single seats. There were like 8 open seats on every train. Â I also waited an hour for Comet because they were also not doing a good job running it efficiently. Oh well. Â Honorable mention is Steel Force had a 45 minutes wait (Dorney had lines?!???!?) so I didn't even waist the time to ride it. Â Great adventure is my home park and I've never waited more than 1/2 hour for a ride there (very lucky) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VF15 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Longest I've ever waited for a coaster was 75 minutes for Superman: Ultimate Flight at Six Flags Great America. It should have been only 60 minutes, but it was down for about 15 minutes because of a problem with the restraints. Â Slowest-moving line I've waited in was for Goliath at the same park. The line was literally at a standstill for seven minutes sometimes, which is just ridiculous. The posted wait time was 2.5 hours, however I was able to get on the ride much faster thanks to the single-rider line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angle O. Descent Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 In recent memory, Volcano at KD and Cars were both 2 hours. Cars wasn't that bad because they were selling drinks and snacks in the lines. More parks ought to follow suit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KPfan Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Hmm, the worst that I recall were Mean Streak, Millenium Force and Steel Phantom. All 3 were 2+ hours when they opened. I don't have much patience for that these days although I still occasionally wait the 1.5 hours for Millenium Force or Maverick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had 2+ on: Magnum, Mean Streak, Raptor, Mantis, Millennium Force, Wicked Twister, Dragster, Maverick at Cedar Point, and 2+ on dozens of other rides at numerous Six Flags and Paramount(formerly) parks. Heck I can probably say it was 3+ for Xcelerator, but that included hanging out at the entrance with one of the Ops because we had ridden everything else 3x already.

jray21 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 3 hours for Stealth when it was at CGA. It wasn't worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertigomkie Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 ^was going to say, 5 1/2 hours for opening week in 2002 of "the world's first flying coaster" at CGA, as it was build. Stealth's breakdowns plus lines all the way to the Action FX Theater made it my only ride that day. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFOG1991 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Dare Devil Dive at SFOG!! It was an hour and fifteen minute wait while everything else in the park was a walk-on or station wait. Slow, slow moving line THIS! Â It's a solid ride, but having a single loading platform and only 6 people per dispatch, it crawls. It usually has a 2 hour line and always seems to have at least 1 hour, even when the park is dead and everything else is walk on. Â Great ride. Capacity nightmare.

Canobie Coaster Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 The longest lines I've waited in include: Â Bizarro (SFNE)- 2 hours (most switchbacks and surprisingly no breakdowns) Splash Mountain (WDW)- 2 hours Toy Story Mania (WDW)- 2 hours Volcano- 2.5 hours (every switchback, line extended onto midway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peeps28 Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 2 hours milennium force. But the hour and a half wait for Scooby-Doo at six flags st.louis was the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
