Nemmy Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Two and a half days until I'm gone. I can't wait! No, seriously, I literally cannot wait. Don't you love that feeling when you're, say, going to IOA at 7 A.M. and you wake up at 5:30 and say "Holy shit, I'm going to IOA!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benzo41190 Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I had that feeling when i went to Cedar Point 2001. It was like a few years from when I was last there and I was first seeing Cedar Point on almost every Discovery channel show (coaster related). Then I couldnt sleep the whole night. Then when I got there, i was like so excited that I kept jumping up and down! Ever since, i have been going like 1-3 times a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coasterlicious Posted August 16, 2005 Share Posted August 16, 2005 When I saw the CP skyline It was amazing.. seeing Dragster for the first time! The way you see all the rides from the parking lot gets me exited.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SonOfBeastSucks Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 ^Yeah, it is certainly one of the best parks to drive up to. You can see everything in the distance, getting closer and closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemmy Posted August 17, 2005 Author Share Posted August 17, 2005 Anyone have a suggested schedule? There's a 30%-40% chance of raining while I'm there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted August 17, 2005 Share Posted August 17, 2005 My suggestion is "Go with the flow". Most of the rides are closed during rain (heck, I rode WT front seat while it was sprinkling, and it felt like sleet :shock: ). If the rides close, grab a bite to eat or see a show. I laughed as I ate at Game Day Grille, watching everyone else on the midway panic. Heh, heh... Also, they've recently gotten rid of Freeway passes for the remainder of the season. But, they've lowered admission by about $15 for adult one-day tickets, and even more discounted on the senior and junior tix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterlover420 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Maybe you tear up because it's sad how much better TTD is that KK! When I first went to CP (this summer), I was rather excited to leave Albuquerque. The ride there is too long and I fell asleep. The best part of the drive (from Cleveland) is when you arrive in Sandusky and you're looking for TTD. It is amazing that you can see it over tall trees that far away! It was rather exciting when we were driving by Millennium Force (made a video) and you have to look straight up! When I arraived, TTD was (of course) broken down! When we got in the park, we got in line for Magnum. Before we got to the line, however, TTD ran a test run. So...we got out of line and went over to TTD (which surpising as it may sound, was the opposite of crouded. But we went in early June so you can screw seeing things like that) and got right on! It was the best ride ever! Mostly because my track record only consisted of about 25 steel coasters, mostly from SFMM. It will remain on the top of my list for years to come, though! The trip to CP is by far the best I have ever been on! It is sad to leave! I'm just planning to go back anyway. I wish I lived closer, though!

coasterlover420 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 (heck, I rode WT front seat while it was sprinkling, and it felt like sleet :shock: ) If you think that was bad, I rode TTD in heavy rain. It felt like getting shot by a million tiny paintballs close range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterlover420 Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 Yeah, Cedar Point can do that to you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpartanTS Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 (heck, I rode WT front seat while it was sprinkling, and it felt like sleet :shock: ) If you think that was bad, I rode TTD in heavy rain. It felt like getting shot by a million tiny paintballs close range. TTD was open in the rain? I thought they never opened TTD even if there was a drop of rain. I got to ride TTD last week, and it started to rain soon after. They shut it down. But back to the subj, Cedar Point will make you rather excited, especially if you're never been or don't go too often. I went for the first time last week and I was like a kid in a candy store. I did everything in one day. Leaving CP made me sad, but i'll be back same time next year! Well maybe earlier to avoid those August crowds. IOA doesn't excite me. It was "alright". It's no CP, that's for sure. Now I gotta get to Tampa so I can ride Sheikra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasterlicious Posted August 18, 2005 Share Posted August 18, 2005 TTD has ran many times in the rain.. but it usually closes soon after a few rides... or if your lucky enough to just be on it when it poors.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
