Philrad71 Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 ^Molson, maple syrup and poutine & throw in some bacon (but not the Canadian kind because that sucks)???? Mmmmmm....beer, maple syrup, poutine and baaaaacon!!!
QueerRudie Posted July 16, 2012 Posted July 16, 2012 If only we had this going on for the Canada's Wonderland bash . I so want to go to this one, but don't think that I can swing it with what vacation time I have left. I've always wanted to go to SFOG and with free beer, fried pies & ERT on 10 coasters, I'm sincerely thinking about how bad do I really want my bonus check for 100% attendance anyway? As a matter of fact, I think I feel those sick days for the Friday and Monday of that weekend coming on now ! I suspect you are coming down with an advanced case of Schwarzkopf Syndrome, a nearly fatal disease if not cured with proper does of Vitamin Gz. Repeated doses of Vitamin Gz are required- depending on the situation.
Legoguy1395 Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 Words cannot express my want! I went last year and had one of the best days of my life! Stupid early collage stuff getting back on the 8th. (At least we get out a month early to enjoy parks then!)
sirspanky53 Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Can't wait to find out the avg schedule for this event
simaticable Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Funny how Ninja is the only coaster without ERT, but then again you would have to be crazy to want ERT on it!
Matt Geden Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 I was wondering if anyone was getting a hotel on Saturday night, and wanted to share the cost with me. I am new to TPR bashes and I live about 2 hrs away, so it may make sense to just crash in ATL on Sat Night.
robbalvey Posted July 18, 2012 Author Posted July 18, 2012 (edited) DEEP SOUTH BASH ANNOUNCEMENT!!! This year...the "TPR Water Challenge" will be on.... GEORGIA CYCLONE!!!! OMG! YES!!!!! It's going to be awesome! Get your tickets now! http://www.themeparkreview.com/store/index.php?productID=142 Edited July 18, 2012 by robbalvey
QueerRudie Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Memo to me: Avoid GC after dark. Stay with known & proven wet-less rides. BTW: How are the ops mid-week from the 6-10th of August? Not that I'm coming out early to, um, 'pray religiously' at the shrine of Anton or anything...
johnychen Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Looks like this years water challenge may be a bit more difficult. Perhaps that new topper track will help.
edh Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Make sure to see Iluminate. It ends the day after. I just saw the one at SFOT and I can honestly say it is by far one of the best shows I have seen at a theme park. Completely unique and you will enjoy every minute of it.
ugaman15 Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 last year was sooooooooo great!!!!! last train on Goliath front row with my wet pants from the water challenge! im so in for another year
DollywoodTNgal Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 I must ask, "What exactly IS a water challenge?"
shivtim Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 ^It's where you take a full cup of water on a coaster and try not to spill it! It's pretty much impossible, but incredibly fun. Here's pictures from last year's water challenge on Scream Machine: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1091096#p1091096
robbalvey Posted July 19, 2012 Author Posted July 19, 2012 Worth a 4hr. drive? 1 way. Some people are flying in from across the planet...so I guess I'd say yes?
QueerRudie Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 Worth a 4hr. drive? 1 way. Worth flying in from the West Coast for... for the SECOND time. And what Robb said, too. This event should NOT be missed- ever. It is that good. It takes quite a bit to impress me, and I'll say that a day at SFoG is still on par with Disney. the B-E-E-RT is amazing, as are the fried pies. The park gives us everything- and goes over the top to do so. Last year's backstage tour was -phenomenal- in every possible way (And no, it's not solely because I got to get up-close & personal with a certain German there...) DSB is, to me, the DO NOT MISS event of the year. You will not be disappointed. R.D.
SuperShawn Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 ^ Thanks for the pep talk to make me feel better about having to most likely miss this event again. Worth a 4hr. drive? 1 way. If I get that Saturday off, I will be flying down Friday night late, and leaving at the crack of dawn Sunday just to check this event out and be sleep deprived at work. To me it'd be way worth an easier 4 hour drive.
