Texas Giant BASH! - TICKETS NOW ON SALE!

[chadster]

Any word on whether or not the elusive flume #1 will be open?

 

I have my flume #1 credit!!!

[webgoof]

^ No word, and to be honest for the event I'm not too worried about it. This is event is all about Texas Giant! Maybe next year we can have "Log Flume #1 Bash!"

 

 

haha could you imagine that conversation?

 

TPR: "Hi, I'd like to set up a special event centered around your log flume #1..."

 

SFOT: "ehhhhh....wha...?"

[cole99]

Im going yay

[cstrfrk67]

is it just me or is my banner not showing up in my posts.......lmao

 

 

 

n/m, figured it out.....DUH!!!!

[BrandonR]

Well I just made the journey from San Antonio back to (north) Dallas. In case anyone was wondering, I verified that it took me exactly 4 hours, with no traffic, averaging about 75-80 most of the way. It'd be a long day trip but it's possible.

[cstrfrk67]

I'll be making that drive on the 13th, not sure what time yet. anyone else in San Antonio area leaving friday mid-morning to mid-day?

[kingthong]

YAY! This is going to be my first ever TPR trip. Couldn't be more excited to finally get to meet and hang with the group!

[Rastuso]

As for log flume #1, it seems to have been in operation a lot more of late. I FINALLY got my credit on it last April.

Man...I've always wanted to attend a TPR event, but the scheduling has never worked out. Now this one is 3 hrs away...I need to find a babysitter. BTW, first post but literally been lurking for years.

[SharkTums]

^Hope it works out and you can make it!

 

^^^Remember, this is not a real TPR TRIP, just a TPR Event. Trips are a whole other entity! Hopefully you'll get to do one of those someday as well!

It wasn't open on Saturday. They had the water running on the final lift/drop, which got my hopes up, but the rest of the flume was empty and closed. It's been a while since I've been on #1.

I was waiting on some of my friends confirmations on wanting to go. Now that I have it, I have to book a hotel and buy our tickets. I'm excited. This is going to be awesome!

[Moose]

Looks like I will be able to make it down to Texas. Now i need to work out logistics like flights and hotel.

[krazekiddd]

[SharkTums]

This is really shaping up to be a great group!

 

And tomorrow when Robb gives us the word that the ride is worth it, I can't believe how much fun we're going to have!

[Jakizle]

I hope he likes it as much as I did...I'm nervous lol. But considering yall like Intamin rides this should be the perfect coaster

To me, ride nerds, and nerds/geeks as a whole are some of the coolest people I know. They have passion about things and how they work. It'll be fun to meet you folks here in a few weeks

[slyfoxx]

Well it looks like I won't be able to attend after all. Something came up at the last minute on the same day that we have to attend but I know y'all will have a blast & perhaps I'll get to make the next one!
