robbalvey Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 We have arrived at one of our favorite amusement parks in the world! Knoebels!  Starting our visit to Knoebels with a lights on tour of their awesome Haunted Mansion!  Which one is the monster and which one is the guy who runs TPR? Oh wait, they are both monsters!  Drew gave a fantastic tour through Knoebels Haunted Mansion! He's got a real passion for the ride!  Drew pointed out some low-tech but effective gags. Like using a painted toy football for a monsters eye!  Backstage tour of the Haunted House always results in some fun photo opportunities!  Took a ride on Impulse at Knoebels. Nice to see them install a fun, smooth steel coaster!  Cesari's Pizza is LEGIT!!! Make sure this is one of your many food stops at Knoebels!  Phoenix at Knoebels. Still delivering one of the world's best wooden coaster rides!  Do not let the Flyers fool you! This simple looking ride at Knoebels is CRAZY fun!  Elissa just won cover-all!!! Fascination is one of many fun things to do at Knoebels!  Check out this AWESOME 360 Degree Video we made of the Knoebels bumper cars! They are just insane! (Watch in the YouTube app on your phone!)  The correct way to eat "Cheese on a Stick" at Knoebels! lol  Best damn peanut butter shake I've ever had!  Flying Turns is a one-of-kind wooden bobsled coaster! No track! Just curves! Great ride!  We are on a log flume...  Yay! Twister! Yet another good wooden roller coaster at Knoebels.  Elissa just won the cover-all... AGAIN!!! We swear she's not cheating!!!  The view of Knoebels from the sky ride is fantastic!  Knoebels has two GREAT dark rides! Very "traditional" in feel and fun with their gags!  [twitter] [/twitter] Cosmotron is an indoor rave party and that's exactly what we did!  Glowfest is once again happening with our group of crazy people at Knoebels!  Glowfest on Phoenix has begun! It's just insane!!!  Here is a video of what this insanity looks like... [fbvideonew] [/fbvideonew] Glowfest is crazy! Lights out ride on Phoenix only lit by our glow!  Few blurry pics is all Ive got to show the insanity of Phoenix Glowphest train screaming through the track!  It's so great to see the Knoebels park staff & management join in our fun!  Thank you again for an amazing night and a wonderful day at Knoebels!

Nrthwnd Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 What a great day at Knoebels you guys had, Robb! Â And did they just throw a HUGE box of glow stuff at you all, making it a game of pick and wear as much as you all could? Â Talk about having "loose items" on a coaster, lol. The swords looked especially cool on the coaster run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 And did they just throw a HUGE box of glow stuff at you all, making it a game of pick and wear as much as you all could? No. We bought it all from their shops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfc Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Glow ERT is awesome--but the walk-through tour of the Haunted House really makes me wish I could've been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlahBlahson Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Wow! TPR visited Knoebels the day after I was there. Would have been funny seeing you guys and having no idea you were coming! Â Phoenix is the most amazing ride. 70 years old and still a top 10 wooden coaster. Cedar Fair can suck it with their seat-belts on everything.

Hilltopper39 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I've only been to Knoebles once and only rode the Huanted Mansion once but I remember that ride being one of the absolute coolest rides I'd ever been on, just so much fun. Really is shame more of those don't exist anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterkid124 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 It seems like every time I see a TR about Knoebels, I see something else that I never knew was there before. I had always assumed that Cosmotron was a laser tag building  Cool to see that they have Fascination too. I never played it until this season and I became a semi-god at it on Darien Lake's version. Can't wait to see more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philrad71 Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I don't think that I have ever laughed as hard on a ride as I did the couple of times that I have ridden Skooters - it is just too funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernierocker Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Love this update! This day was the most fun I have had a park that wasn't in Orlando. We did so much but never felt rushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAWKIN_coaster38 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 I don't think that I have ever laughed as hard on a ride as I did the couple of times that I have ridden Skooters - it is just too funny! YES!!! This is exactly what happened when I rode it! Â Man, this TR makes me wanna do whatever I can to return to Knoebels this year even though it'll be a very far drive for me. It was such a FUN park and there are so many things I missed that I want to do! Looks like you guys had an awesome time, and those Flyers were super legit! I had never really successfully snapped until riding that one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chadster Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Could not have asked for a better group to take my Knoebles virginity with. Hands down the most awesome fun I've had at an amusement park in well over a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkraig4life Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Wish I would have known you all would be there, I would have definately gone, i'm only an hour away and would have liked to meet some of the crew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Turbo Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Â My hair sure looks interesting in that one. The surprise stop at Dorney was short, but a lot of fun (and the lunch they gave us was really good too) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I'm not a huge fan of Hydra (amazing jojo roll photo, though), but I do like Steel Force and Talon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry M Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 Does Dorney Park have a phobia of floors or something, I mean they have: Â Stinger: Inverted (no floor) Talon: Inverted (no floor) Possessed: Inverted (no floor) Hydra: Floorless. Â There is a pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
