Angry_Gumball Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Last year when a 'shed/storage building' was built it was an awesome Haunt maze...I bet you this is one of the new Haunt mazes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Domm Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 Went over to CGA for an hour at 11:00 today and GS line was out to the front! I totally forgot about the wheel until I saw it and didn't have any cash on me The few I saw spin hit the front of the line right away (2 of the people that won actually hit just off the front of the line and the guy gave it to them anyway) . Would have gladly paid the $3 to skip that line. Beats the $40 fast pass which is only needed for GS anyway Next time I am definitely bringing some cash cause lunch hour trips to the park and long GS lines don't work too well!

#1rollercoasterfan Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 ^What??? Line out the entrance at Gold Striker on a Tuesday? CGA seems to be busy no matter what day you go. I remember like back in 2002 the park was so dead during the week in the summer. Crowd levels sure have changed & a new generation of park goers.

XYZ Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 ^^Strange. I went on Gold Striker at 11:00 yesterday and the line was to the entrance, but without switchbacks (which isn't that bad). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 ^^Well, the crowds can only be a good thing for the park...something it was in dire need of. ^Agreed, I've seen lines spilling out of entrance last weekend only to see that no switchbacks were being used. Line went by pretty quick, probably 20 minute or so wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singemfrc Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I was there all day Monday and it wasn't that busy..the max wait was about 30 mins, maybe 40 only right after it reopened from maintenance, never really got into the switchbacks..maybe there were a lot of groups there today.

Zeppelinfreak Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I just got back from a presentation at Knott's Berry Farm revealing the details of their Halloween Haunt in its entirety. When they talked about a maze called Dia De Los Muertos, which had its last year at Knott's, one of the designers (Laura Hanneman) announced that it would be retired. She also said that anybody who missed it can check it out at Great America—they are moving it there. I don't know whether this has been released to you guys or not; but I thought it would be a nice treat if nothing's been announced yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've known about it for a few months now,just kept quite about it. The maze will take over where Club Blood was. Ther interior of the maze is done, they are working on the outside now.

Domm Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Does that mean that Club Blood is gone then? Subtract a maze and add a maze? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jew Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Does that mean that Club Blood is gone then? Subtract a maze and add a maze? Yes. That's typically how it works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Well, I'd also assume that CB will be gone as actually, part of the Club Blood alleyway was used for the "On Broadway" show, in the opening scene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJnCFL Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 Does that mean that Club Blood is gone then? Subtract a maze and add a maze? Yeah, it was confirmed at CGA's Haunt Presentation that Club Blood is retired and "Dia De Los Muertos" will take it's place, hence the construction you see happening at the Pictorium in the photo above.

joejoeman13 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 I am finally going to attend CGA on the 20th. I was born and raised in SJC and attended the park from when it was Marriotts and left while Paramount owned it. I believe I left Cali during the year of 2001. I miss it alot. I love this park. ALOT has changed, new rides and layout of the park. Any suggestions on which ride to hit first because of lines? I know GS will be first. Any other thoughts to help plan my day at CGA!?

joejoeman13 Posted July 11, 2013 Share Posted July 11, 2013 How much are Fast Lane wristbands??? This is something I think would be a great idea as well. For some reason I am having trouble loading the website for CGA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
