Sir Clinksalot Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Thanks for the tips on the hotels, still haven't booked ours for Saturday night. Eeek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barge84 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Thanks for the tip! I canceled my other reservation and ended up saving $125! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbottgen Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 For those who were thinking of taking advantage of the Knotts Hotel deal, the prices are back up to around $100 a night again. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. I was planning taking advantage of the savings as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfmman2000 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Still Knott's Hotel deals to be found on Hotwire: For Saturday and Sunday night a total of $152 - $10 coupon (find on Hotwire homepage) = $141. Use a cashback site to save even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillgeek Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I have an idea. With X2 looking like it won't be available why don't we do a few hours of a TPR take over of the water park since it will be open!?!? It's going to be a hot day anyway.

I would not be opposed to this, though I might just end up going to the car, throwing on a bathing suit and then napping in the lazy river. However I do not think that WCB admission includes the waterpark, but I'll have to dig out that combo season pass anyway because I purchased my ticket at the passholder price.

805Andrew Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 For those still looking for a hotel, the Knott's one is still $62 a night before taxes/fees on Kayak for a single queen bed. That's only $5 more a night then what I paid. EDIT: Never mind, disregard what I just said. I have an idea. With X2 looking like it won't be available why don't we do a few hours of a TPR take over of the water park since it will be open!?!? It's going to be a hot day anyway. I would, but it Hurricane Harbor is a separate admission park from SFMM. I would like to go a SoCal water park on Monday after Knott's, but it looks like they will all be closed due to school being back in session. I might hit the beach instead in Santa Monica or Malibu before heading home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Churro $2.75 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Hi, I'm Anthony! My screenname probably doesn't look familiar because I've only posted a few times, but I enjoy reading the trip reports and discussions on TPR. I'm coming solo on Sunday for Knott's. I'm a local, I actually live just a few minutes away. I see some solo people are grouping up, mind if I join in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Clinksalot Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 You shouldn't have a problem finding a group to hang out with. TPR is a very welcoming group. Only 3 work days until Disney on Friday!!! Woot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Just picked up the T-Shirts for the SFMM day of West Coast Bash! They turned out amazing! (Thanks David!) Those of you who oredered the shirt, you will pick it up at Check-In. Edited September 3, 2013 by robbalvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdngmikey Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Just got the email and it looks like it's going to be one hell of a weekend. I don't think that I'm going to get a whole lot of sleep, especially going to Disneyland the night before WCB starts. I can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Coleman Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Just got done reading my event email and it looks like it will be an awesome weekend. Great job on scoring yolocoaster and superman in place of the closed x2. They more than make up for the loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I was fine not doing the SFMM day until I saw that there is Orient Express ERT. But seriously, always excited to get the "Big Bad WCB Email" and this one has me so stoked for the Knott's day. Should be absolutely epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcdude Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Just read the e-mail and everything sounds like it will be great. Even if SFMM is a little light compared to past years it still sounds like it will be a fun day and Knott's sounds like the best event so far. Can't wait for this weekend!

paulthomas Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Looks great.. this will be my third West Coast Bash.. flying all the way from Miami Florida.. I am a carry over from the original thrillride/rideworld group.. ( Coker/Godsey ) and I was at the first event... A little bummed about X2 closing and I had hoped there would be some night ERT on Goliath because that was amazing the last time I was at WCB.. but a few rides on Tatsu at night ( my fav ride at the park will make up for that ) : ) Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 ^ Yeah, I hear 'ya. Not too much we could do about X2 and since the park doesn't do the "all coasters" ERT anymore, we have to pick and choose. We've had Goliath in the past at night and Tatsu in the morning so we figured change it up a bit. Last year we didn't have Apocalypse at all for ERT, so that was also a nice addition.

paulthomas Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Trust me absolutely No bitching here.. that the parks even go out of their way for a small group of people ( few hundred ) is incredible to me... at what is probably great cost to them to keep the park operational above normal hours... I'll be visiting Disneyland Friday as well too.. first time.. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barge84 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Random question that maybe a local could answer. If I wanted to take a break on Saturday and watch some college football for a couple of hours, is there a sports bar near SFMM? Thanks in advance!

If I wanted to take a break on Saturday and watch some college football for a couple of hours, is there a sports bar near SFMM? Thanks in advance! Yes. Exit Magic Mountain and just go straight under the freeway. In less than a mile you will have your pick of plenty of places to grab a cold one and watch a game or two. I have done this many times in the past. It gets you out of the heat and helps re-energize for the second half. May I recommend the Elephant Bar. First shopping center on your left. You can't miss it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
