Krandor Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 SFOG was one of the parks originally on my 2020 Coaster Extravaganza (RIP), so I am definitely interested in seeing how things go there, as we just might go on down, assuming that I keep my SF passes active this year, instead of just writing it off and waiting until next year. Still haven't ever been, and I'd love to check it out!It’s a good park. I plan to go shortly after they open and If it’s not already here will post pics of what things look like. I have a season flash pass in addition to my membership so assuming all that stays the same I should be able to easily social distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The username Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 It's a fantastic experience if you go on the right day, other times it can be the most frustrating day you've had in a long while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoMeDyDuDe619 Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 When they do open, they'll need to open the morning 2 sides further out to distance people more. opening only to TC and GS is too closed in. or they can just open ALL sections at once spread everyone immediately.

That is why reservations to the park are going to not be just for a date but also a time so everybody isn't hitting the gates at the same time.

CoasterGuy06 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 They have posted on all their socials they have an announcement coming Monday. Assume it will be their reopening date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krandor Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 They have posted on all their socials they have an announcement coming Monday. Assume it will be their reopening date. Yep. Since the 12th is when they are allowed to my money is on that being the day. Maybe the 15th if they don't want to open on a weekend but no later then the 15th IMO. My money still that they will open on the 12th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My money still that they will open on the 12th. I could be wrong but I doubt SFoG would open earlier than the two Texas locations (June 19th) as those two parks made their respective reopening announcements this past week. I do wonder if the park will keep the remodeled Gotham City section closed and save the new 2020 attractions for later. In the very least I think it makes sense to allow guests to experience the 'new-ness' of being open and leave Gotham shuttered for at least a few additional weeks.

Seddy Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 Considering that they stopped trying to take my $25 membership fee... They are definitely reopening and honoring the free months they promised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tndank Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 As of 2 weeks ago, Mindbender was still not put together. I foresee Gotham still being closed for a bit. I'd love to see them open this weekend but I think it'll be a week or two later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DILinator Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Tell me about it. Very disappointing. Yesh and if you go to https://m.sixflags.com/overgeorgia/attractions/mind-bender it has it marked as closed for the season. booo. I was on the fence about making the long trek down to Georgia with the kids this year, as originally planned, but this news seals the deal. My first trip to SFoG will have to wait until 2021! It's not a park I'd regularly go to (I mean, a lifetime of being a coaster enthusiast, and I still haven't been there!), and I don't want to miss out on the classic Mindbender coaster. One less thing to save money for this year. Disappointing to delay yet another year, but not altogether a bad thing for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is going to be on one time in may many years trip I'd skip this year between mindbender and the currnt reservation, social distancing, masks and all that. It isn't the year for any kind of "once in a lifetime" or "one in a decade" trip to any theme park including places like disney. Just going to be very very different this year. I'm local so I can deal with the changes and if I can only deal with the mask 2 hours and then go home then no big deal. Not the same for people coming from out of town.
