Photo TR: SFMM 5/7/07

[lapseofreason]

So I decided to retry my "ask for a weekday off work and hit up SFMM" theory.

 

It worked quite well. Aside from X being down all day due to the wind, and something being busted on Scream all day, by the time we left at 2:45 the first parking lot wasn't even three quarters full. (EDIT: OK, so I apparently didn't see anyone I mentioned before. How embarrassing.)

 

Anyways, on to my second uploading of pics after Internet Explorer decided it was hungry and ate them. Enjoy.

After Jet Stream and an empty Batman we rode Log Jammer again then left. Thanks for reading!

Obligatory toasted Psyclone shot. Enough said.

By the way, why did SFMM put new benches in the smoking areas and nowhere else?! (scratches head)

Finally, Kentucky Rumbler Guy and Old Dude headed off to X with the promise of letting Business Casual Black Guy and ACE Polo Guy know if it was open. Ugh.

If I heard the term "g-force" or "X is stuck on the lift hill" used in a "I know more than you about coasters" term ONE MORE TIME, I was gonna hurl

But my ride was ruined by... ACERs! NOOOO!

Look, the TVs were working today (at least some of them)

We took Orient Express up to Ninja... I wonder what this lever does. Mike? Anyone?

On the way back in some kid took our picture, it turned out okay

After that, snack time.... chicken fingers, soda, cheese dip, Doritos,and avocado= better than eating in the park. Yum.

Empty queue= our own personal ride on Revy. It rocked.

Apparently back in the day there were signs that said what kind of tree it was. So here is an olive tree by Revolution. Trippy.

But still... Classic SFMM(wooden cupola roof) + Extreme Makeover: Superhero Plantation Edition= WEIRD!

Another shot, apparently I missed all the painting fun

Oh boy, it's Superhero Plantation (and yes, those lights are on for no apparent reason)

This guy was really pissed, it was funny

And these people, though you can't see it that well

These people got nailed

After that, it was our ritual of finding people that got the most soaked on the final drop (or cheerleaders) and blasting them with water cannons... best waste of money in the park

OMGWTFBBQ... THEMEING!!! ONE LOUSY BARREL OF THEMEING FUN! BOW DOWN TO ITS ATMOSPHERIC GLORY IF YOU CAN WHILE ZOOMING BY IT!!!

What would one of my Photo TR's be without a Log Jammer POV shot?

Uh... Goliath was only running one train.

I had never seen one of these signs before at SFMM... so here is one.

OMFG, is that man PASSED OUT ON THE TABLE?! Haha, nothing more to see here!

On to my pathetic excuse for a Johnny Rockets update.

Monday + No Spring Break= Empty queues all day. Woohoo!

This duck was pissed because we got soda refills and not food.. soon after, he and his friends got into a honking frenzy over this fact

Tatsu's McPretzelLoop through the trees.. just because I had to. Our first ride of the day, as always.

10:45 am and the lights are on... Noooo, I don't know why this park has budget issues...

A busted Colossus greets me as we enter.. and oh, by the way, welcome to my Photo TR

By the way, why did SFMM put new benches in the smoking areas and nowhere else?! (scratches head)

 

For that very reason. Employees will now direct guests who need to smoke to: "the blue-bench smoking areas." They want these benches to stand out.

 

Great Update/TR. Keep it up.

[bulldogmom]

^ And I guess the tables will be reserved for employees or guests who want to pass out!

[Mr.Six]

Ugh! Trash in my trains!

I actually wasn't working today, hence why it was dirty

I've been told several times that its some sort of a manual brake, although if anyone can confirm that, that would be great. Nice Trip Report! Glad to see you had a good time at Magic.

What the hell

Either that ride time estimate is interchangeable, or else they plan on running one train for the rest of poor Goliaths life

zeesh

 

 

I miss the good old days when I ditched school to go to SFMM.

Good times...Good times

[KrazyT]

^ Yeah, nothing like ditching school to go to a theme park. I miss those days too.
