MisterBrow Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 On the food survey I just kept saying Mexican food on the dining plan. Is there really a chance I get a dining plan burrito and a bathroom by superman for when it digests 10 minutes later? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alilstronger Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 On the food survey I just kept saying Mexican food on the dining plan. Is there really a chance I get a dining plan burrito and a bathroom by superman for when it digests 10 minutes later? All I want them to carry is real brewed unsweet iced tea. I do not understand why almost no amusement parks do not carry this. They rather carry that nasty Gold Peak brand. Which I get because its a Coke product, but it taste so processed. The one season they had Chick Fil A in the park was the best because of the iced tea. The only park I have ever found real iced tea is Knoebels and only a couple stands sell it.

Password121 Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Interesting that Firebird is listed on the HITP map for this year as an attraction with a number even though it won't be operating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Let's hope that this is a bathroom for Gotham. Most likely not. Higher ups in the parks have said its not feasible due to plumbing and the environmental laws. One thing I have learned is parks can say one thing today, and do a totally different thing tomorrow.

Highridin Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Lol, yeah, I can't do it. I need some sugar in that tea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes. Unsweet tea? I didn't know people actually drank that stuff. Its my favorite drink. It really depends on the brand. I do like sweet tea to though. I wish parks offered both options.

coneyislandchris Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Lol, yeah, I can't do it. I need some sugar in that tea. Yeah but 99% of the time when I get a sweet tea ALL I taste is the sugar. I just can't do it anymore. I personally really like unsweetened cold green tea, it's my go-to drink of choice these days along with flavored seltzer, but good luck finding it at any theme park in the States. At least most of the places that have the Coke Freestyle machines have one or two "Dasani Sparkling" options for the seltzer, but I've never seen any theme park that actually stocks the cold green tea bottles.

boldikus Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Yikes. Unsweet tea? Lol, yeah, I can't do it. I need some sugar in that tea. This is because y'all are addicted to sugar (like most of America). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highridin Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I think everyone was in the Santa line..lol..a lot in shows. Also, it was extremely cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Yeah, it was unseasonably cold in the northeast yesterday. While temps in the mid 30's usually won't keep people away from the parks in late December, it generally does in late November when people know that they can likely wait a few days and visit when it's 20 degrees warmer. Crowds at Great Adventure and New England were on the lighter side also (though Great Adventure was more respectable with Justice League actually hitting 35 minutes). By park close it was down to almost 20 degrees at GA and likely not much warmer at SFA (and yes, the coasters were open ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highridin Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Yeah, it was low to mid 30s. The good news is that it was not windy. Big shopping day yesterday too; I'm sure that kept some out. 3 coasters (Roar, Wild One, Mind Eraser), and Fireball were open. A fun, very hype group was re-riding Roar for a long time. Daughter finally had enough, as she could no longer feel her cheeks..lol.. the group kept riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highridin Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Just a heads up. The line to get in is a little bit ridiculous right now. Great weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterBrow Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 We went in Friday at about 4:30, rode everything, ate, and were out at 6:30. RC was closed. ROAR was its usual good cold weather self. Even hopped on ME and managed to not get my bell rung. Creek area looks great but ME was dark. So, a rare season when I actually rode both Apocalypse and ME. Longest lines were for Santa and the bumper cars (ride ops and dumb people, I can never understand people that loop that "seatbelt" around their throats). Good pictures already posted, thanks. It is amazing how a park that struggles so mightily with theming can rock holiday lights. I guess it is easy to light all of the trees when there are only 10 of them. Honestly just the right number of people for me. Not a ghost town but very light. It does seem that they are mainly open to sell brown water and S'mores.

DarkRideNick Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I happen to love Batman: The Ultimate Brand Experience! My favorite parts are the corporate synergy inversions and character exposure marketing campaign helix! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 It is amazing how a park that struggles so mightily with theming can rock holiday lights. I think the reason that Six Flags Holiday in the Park events are so good is that they really have nothing to do with the lights aside from writing a check to Oak Island Creative and letting them handle it.

Vonni Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Is the Apocalypse to Firebird transformation supposed to come with a new paint scheme? Or will the current one be retained? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterAuditor Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Is the Apocalypse to Firebird transformation supposed to come with a new paint scheme? Or will the current one be retained? I really hope they at least paint the big gray and orange B&M as part of this "transformation" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterLover Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Is the Apocalypse to Firebird transformation supposed to come with a new paint scheme? Or will the current one be retained? 99% sure there will be a new paint job, but it likely won't come until the spring. Baynum Painting did the original paint job for the ride when they brought it in from SFGAm and I'm guessing they will do the repaint for this transformation. Baynum keeps a pretty active blog and FB page which will likely have pics of the work in progress (as SFA is usually pretty slow with posting any construction/improvement photos).

DarkRideNick Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Saw on Instagram that someone met Black Panther at SFA...do ya'll think it was an official park character like Bugs Bunny or just some guest cosplaying? Perhaps they met Batman and were confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
