Sir Clinksalot Posted July 7, 2005 Posted July 7, 2005 We were supposed to go to SFMM on Saturday for Amanda's B-day but somebody **cough**Wally**cough** flaked and isn't coming down this weekend. So, instead of wasting a whole Saturday at SFMM I decided I would take Amanda for a few hours today. My day started with me not getting off of work until 1:30am, so I wasn't sure if I would be up to it. Woke up at 8am and figured, what the hell. Left the house about 8:30 and got to SFMM about 9:30. They actually opened the gates at 9:50, pretty cool. Walked up and got our free Fastlanes. Xtreme PlayPass rulz!! First stop, Viper. Well, Amanda isn't quite up to 54" yet, she's got a little bit to go. But, by the end of the summer she will be there. Instead we opted for Revolution. 1 train operation, 2 train wait for the front. Okay ride. Next, up the hill. Ninja was closed (SHOCKER) so it was over to Superman. Nobody in the station, AT ALL. We proceeded to get 5 straight rides in the front row without getting up. We could have gotten more, but 5 was enough. Being as there was only 6 people on the car (Us 2 and 4 behind us) we were getting pretty high up the tower. A couple of times it seemed we were only 10 or 15 feet from the brakes. Good rides!!! Down the backside, and got 2 rides on JetStream. Over to Colossus, walked on even though they were pulling a "Knott's" ... One train empty, one train full. We then hit the Round Up, too hot for a spinning ride. Needed a Frozen Lemonade after this. After our freshen-up we hit up Goliath with our Fastlanes. The ride-op didn't know what we were there for and we ended up waiting like 15 minutes just to get in the line. Duh!!! Good ride. At this point it was about 11:45, we decided to take off, head to Jimmy Deans for lunch and then home. For only 2 hours in the park we got ALOT done. Probably more than we would have all day on Saturday. With that, I'm done with SFMM for awhile. 2 weeks straight is enough.
Coaster Palooza Posted July 7, 2005 Posted July 7, 2005 Nice report. I would love to ride Superman 5 times in the front. :shock: I can't believe Wally....The slacker. Just kidding dude.
socalMAN123 Posted July 7, 2005 Posted July 7, 2005 Nice report. I hope it's like that tommorow when I go with my church. I could get on everything that wasn't closed! Yay! ---Brent 8)
ebl Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 Glad you had fun, Gregg. One of these days we'll have to meet up and go out there. Diana and I have days at SFMM like this one. And yes, Xtreme Play Pass rules! Eric
arrowfanman Posted July 8, 2005 Posted July 8, 2005 I was there today to, to do some filming, Superman went off when I was in front of the Goliath sign, and when I was underneath Superman. That must have been you guys! And Ninja opened at 12. I showed up at 12, and got a good 4 rides on it.
