St.LouisBOI Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Well, yesterday I used my bring-a-friend for free ticket with my season pass at Six Flags St. Louis. It wasn't entirely packed...but it had large crowds especially because of Mat Hoffman's Crazy Freakin' Stunt Show which was going on for the day. Batman:The Ride - Great inverter with lots of force and speed. Wait was only about 8 minutes at the most. 2 trains running. 9/10 (I hate the long line!) Ninja - Rode this bad boy 3 times and I still love it. Where's the head-banging? I love the headchopper effect. Double corkscrews at 53 mph rock! 2 trains running. 8.5/10 River King Mine Train - Nice relaxing coaster but it needs more padding. 2 trains running. 5/10 Screamin' Eagle - Line was about a 10 minute wait...the new 'half' paint job still looks great. It seemed to go much faster than usual, maybe the heat? New brakes = No sudden stops/jerks...YAY! 2 trains running. 9.5/10 The Boss - No more than a 2 or 3 train wait with 2 trains running. Still a kick ass woodie and I'm never going to hate it. Middle is a little rough but front and back is the best. 9.5/10 I also rode the log flume and me and my friend Caitlin who I brought with me were shooting people with the water cannons, hah, fun for only 25 cents! It was a very crazy day because we missed the 4pm Mat Hoffman show because of the parade and they were blocking our path to get to the area place behind Hurricane Harbor and when we got back there...the show was over but we still met Mat and other guys and girls who are pros. Ok, I have alot of pictures below so just bare with me here if it loads slow. And please don't critisize our stupidity because we were really crazy and wild yesterday at Six Flags and most of the pictures show us in the acting. WARNING: NO PEOPLE WERE HARMED IN THE TAKING OF THESE PHOTOS! Enjoy... ...but mine is better! Just great, Caitlin found a perfect pole. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this photo. I'm alright, no harm done. ...WOOD! Oh shi..... THA BOSS Oh yeah, Mat Hoffman, Matt Wilhelm, and Fabiola da Silva on my shirt! Caitlin presents to you...Batman:The Ride Haha, it's Sergie Ventura!!! Heading to the Mat Hoffman's Crazy Freakin' Stunt Show with Hurricane Harbor. ...I think he rejected her. Caitlin just can't keep her feelings to herself anymore...she LOVES the Ninja. We-B-Clubbin NOW, this is is how to be a pimp! Psh, Caitlin thinks she's a pimp now... Nevermind, she's just drunk. Donal...I mean Daffy Duck killed Caitlin. What the hell are those things...and what the hell am I doing? Caitlin has anger management problems... I just couldn't choose which one I wanted, so I grabbed them all. Oh no, Caitlin stole the Tweety outfit! People who didn't give us candy were prosecuted by us... OMFG, it's the log flume! This is the right way...now leave me alone! wrong way Caitlin. Fairgrounds was closed today also!? Maybe a sign for the future? she got the bathrooms mixed up...or didn't she? Sorry for the lack of Coaster/park photos, this is one of the only ones. Darn, the door was locked! wow, caitlin's more muscular than Wonder Woman. ...until I pushed her off the bench. Caitlin passed out due to the shock of Mr.Freeze closed. NOOOOOOOOO! OMG...Mr.Freeze is still closed!!! This was a very intense staring contest. Me: Come sit on my sexy lap! Caitlin: I swear this is not an Alcoholic beverage. ...and the result. 2 seconds after this picture was taken, I fell on my ass. Look ma, im all dry! Caitlin thinks she's in a safe area... Whoops, she fell and I laughed. Caitlin: How long until we get to Batman's station? Me: Oh, not much, just 2 miles more and we get to the stairs! Caitlin: Crap. Do your chains hang low? Caitlin posing for an Etnies shoe commercial. Pepsi is better ho! Ah, I don't know what is better...this or riding The Boss with 2 hott girls sitting in front of you? IT'S ALIVE!!! Oh no, she noticed the palm tree behind her! We ate at the Screen Stars Diner and it was good.
coasterfreak11 Posted August 9, 2006 Posted August 9, 2006 Stephen!!! It looks like you had a lot of fun. You guys look like a blast. I don't think I've ever had that much fun at SFSTL. They need a new COASTER!
St.LouisBOI Posted August 9, 2006 Author Posted August 9, 2006 Haha, don't worry, we're getting a Spinner next year and possibly a Hyper for 2008.
Eagle Rider Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Looks like you're in love with the girl. Hardly any coaster photos, lost of girl shots. Good Luck!!
weatherkid17 Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Haha, don't worry, we're getting a Spinner next year and possibly a Hyper for 2008. Yeah right. I'm pretty sure youll get a spinner, but there is no way that you will get a hyper a year after you get a coaster, especially since Shapiro became head. SFOT hasnt had a new coaster since 2001, and only SFGAdv got a new coaster 2 years in a row. They wont be getting any soon...
St.LouisBOI Posted August 10, 2006 Author Posted August 10, 2006 Actually, I have insider resources and the 2008 coaster for us is already in the planning stages. SFSTL has the 3rd best attendance figures out of all Six Flags parks. Don't let a small park fool you.
Ryan King Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 A lot of Caitlin But Hardly ANY Coaster Shots! I havent been to that Six Flags and wouldve loved to see more of the Park..But Nice TR Anyways! -Ryan
BeemerBoy Posted August 10, 2006 Posted August 10, 2006 Actually, I have insider resources Can you do me a huge favor then? I need to know how the stock will do over the next two years. Thanks. Oh, and no pics of Mat Hoffman or Fabiola? What a rip.
St.LouisBOI Posted August 10, 2006 Author Posted August 10, 2006 I'm not sure if I have ever posted these pictures on here earlier this year, but I went to SFSTL opening day and I got some good pictures of the park. Enjoy! Hello Ninja! The Britania area of the park with a part of Boss in the backround. Hey SFGAdv, we've got Excalibur working. You can see most of the new BBNP and Superman. Arial view of Studio Backlot and some of Hurricane Harbor. Look, it's Colossus. Wow, the Eagle looks brand new...sorta Looks like Superman is a giant lamp or torch...haha. Screamin' Eagle. Well, it's already open. It's the entrance to BBNP. Looking towards the back of the park. Ohhh, new OTHRS. The Joker Inc. Haha, Batman through the trees. I love Mr.Freeze! Mr.Freeze!!! Near the entrance to Thunder River.
weatherkid17 Posted August 11, 2006 Posted August 11, 2006 Alright, say you do get a hyper in 2008. Would that mean the other parks that havent gotten anything coasters since 2000, or 01 getting anything? And there might be one being planned, but if Six Flags is still in debt, it might be postponed.

And there might be one being planned, but if Six Flags is still in debt, it might be postponed. That's true, but from what I've been told, as of now...it's in the planning stages.

They need a new COASTER! ...I have to comment that your friend Caitlin is NOT as you termed: "more muscular than Wonder Woman". Those are not "muscles" your friend has...she is supremely out of shape. I am sure that Wonder Woman could run her to the ground in speed and endurance.
