Charity donation event June 26 from 6 - 10pm.  

So close.

 

Also, today is Coastermania.  TT2 is closed for the day.  They can't catch a break with that ride. 

Is that going to make the park packed? That's my big 4-0 birthday and last night there.

This blows.  I'm visiting next week and I'm missing Siren's Curse by that much and now TT2 looks like it'll be down, as well.  Ah, well, at least maybe crowds will be lighter and I can ride Gemini all day.

I never thought about lighter crowds as a potential consequence.

Maybe, but it sounds like you're still going.  Probably not alone.

You should just pay to Charity to get your ride in. 

I wouldn't think crowds would be that much busser due to it. Maybe that Friday when the ride is open.  ITs almost the week of the 4th and its just crowed at that point on till Middle/End of August.

Top Thrill 2 is now open again.  There's some good news.

^Give it time. It’ll close unexpectedly again…

This wont make sense to many people but I am just looking at TT2 now as a high performance race car. If you want to go fast or do cool things you just know things will break. On a race car a motor might blow, suspension might go out you kind of don't want it to happen but know it will at some point. you rebuild and repeat.  Like most roller coaster track parts get welded. TT2 might just have times that it closes for a few days to repair/  a part weld a crack  and they might have replace said support pole ever year ever other year. They just become wear items just like the old cable was.
