The constant vibration on my phone of people mad at me for making a stupid post is actually starting to annoy me, so let me clarify what I said in this post, and what I meant to say.
About the second week of Winterfest my group of four friends and I wanted to go together since it had been a while we had all gone to KI. Naturally, as most coaster enthusiasts/addicts would do we rushed to the Mystic Timbers the moment they pulled down the rope. We literally raced another group of kids in a grade above us to the Mystic Timbers. However, as we went to the line, the other group went through the single rider line instead, and passed the somewhat short line that had already grown. No biggie as the guys that went thru the single rider lane (srl) had separated into appropriate available seats. Now we spent the rest of the five hours winterfest was open that night getting on and off the mt. But in that time I saw numerous groups of people walk into the single rider line and once making it to be top of the stairs and being told where to sit, wait in the wrong row for their friends and ride with them. This got us pretty mad so we told the operators about this happening and they said they would look out for that. But as days went by, the same thing happened again. So we went to guest services and told them about it and they said they were told about it before and they would continue to enforce the srl security. But another week went by and nothing happened. I wasn’t very happy about everything they had promised compared to what they actually did. So told them again and they insisted to give me a free mug for hot chocolate. Nice, but not I was aiming for.
However, the last few days I had been to winterfest, the misuse of the srl was nonexistent! Wonderful job on KIs point. You see, I was at winterfest when I started this dumb topic, hands freezing, and really mad. So I did not really explain anything correctly.
I’m sorry for being unclear and seemingly rude, as I was just a little mad since I need my adrenaline fix and i don’t like getting cut. And I have nothing against the srl, it’s just when it is misused and nothing is done about it. It really bothered me.
Hopefully this clears things up. And maybe you all will stop calling me salty. [emoji1376][emoji24]
