EastCoastKid Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 ^ My thoughts exactly. Now that the park is included in the free Gold upgrades on season passes, the park is insanely crowded very often. No, it's not a slide complex with drop-box slides, but this is what the park needed. 300 new lounge chairs and the added square footage are huge improvements for the park!

Superbatboy Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Though, I can imagine some MM guests getting their medical on. They definitely do, though I've never seen anyone with a blunt on a coaster. Usually it's just those vape pens that are very easy to conceal. Could it be Great Adventure's guests are slight more rarchet than MM's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prozach626 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 some group in one of the middle rows on our last ride started smoking a blunt while going up the lift! Only at Great Adventure... uhg. Makes me really want to visit the park... no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiFan Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 It's nice to see the park offering ERT on the 22nd. The are already opening the rides early for the Santa Run race participants and probably thought they might as well give passholders another perk.

woolandmammoth Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 I wonder if after legalization takes place (Prime Minister of Canada announced he will legalize it, Supreme court of Mexico ruled that prohibition is against human rights, and 4 states and DC have legalized.. so its coming) if parks will sell infused drinks or have a 'smoking lounge'. Id imagine there is a metric-butt-ton of money to be made and they already sell alcohol. Think about how much their snack sales will go up! Six Flags will sell 4x more churros! I have no problem with someone consuming weed at the park, but I have a problem with it on a lift hill. The same way I'd have an issue if someone was drinking a beer or using a cell phone on a lift hill. Ride safety always come first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspence1127 Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Is the new water park expansion the same one going to Six Flags America? Also I haven't seen the park officially announce it anywhere, though it does seem official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boldikus Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 I am curious as to when they'll release the ride list for Holiday in the Park. The website has been telling us to "check back" since April. Based on the map and press release it seems like we can figure it out but an official list would be cool. BOOM Note: they are not advertising Batman as "Batman: The Ride Backwards", take that for what its worth. Also, we now have a HITP "brochure" in PDF format, complete with a detailed HITP park map HERE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suspence1127 Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Interesting. Skull mountain will not only get new decorations but it will it will be renamed too. The rethemed will be "poinsettia peak". I wonder what they'll do theming wise to the ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 It was discussed a couple pages back about the renaming/retheming of SM. Just guessing but from the description it sounds like the queue will be themed, probably some sort of walk thru xmas light display but the actual ride will be in the dark still. POINSETTIA PEAK Tunnel into a fully immersive world of holiday adventure on this all indoor coaster—in total darkness! The lighted beauty of the coaster will prime you for your swift adventure into dips and turns perfect for the whole family this holiday season. Also someone was asking about Blackbeards being open, this confirms that it will be closed. Looks like the closest anyone will be able to get to ToteMay construction is the Flash Pass building.

coasterbill Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 (edited) The rethemed will be "poinsettia peak". Ahem... I believe you meant "Poinsettia Peak Sponsored by Takis". Face the intensity... face it. PS: I still can't believe this is happening. The fact that they're running 6 coasters until January in New Jersey (one of which is an 80 MPH hyper coaster) is awesome. I really hope this event is successful and they keep doing this. Edited November 12, 2015 by coasterbill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterbill Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 If you really want to laugh... look at this page. The stock photos make the food look amazing but the descriptions don't match at all. It's basically a bunch of pictures of amazing holiday meals and then text that essentially says "yeah it's more crappy chicken tenders". lol My favorite is this picture... Followed by this description that has NOTHING to do with the picture at all... Share a meal with family and friends! Italian food, hot soups, salads, hot chocolate and more! What?

coasterbill Posted November 12, 2015 Share Posted November 12, 2015 Speaking of beer, much like Six Flags New England they still had Summer Shandy on tap on closing weekend. If this park serves me a Summer Shandy on tap during Holiday in the Park they'll officially be my new favorite park ever. well... favorite park not named Knoebels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the Bugs Bunny National Park rides are in the open rides list and Bugs Bunny National Park is under the closed rides list. They even have the National Park Water Tower listed as being open.
