Oldschool75 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Anybody know what crowds are like today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I can let you know in a half hour when I get there, but the rains that blew through may have thinned out the crowds some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldschool75 Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I'm here. Parking lot is pretty full but hopefully the rain will drive them out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriTre Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Hopefully it's not too busy. Heading over around 7:30 with the kiddo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Just got here, parking lot looks 2/3-3/4 full. A lot of people are leaving now too, though. Delirium is a nearly fully packed queue, I'd estimate 1 1/2 hours Banshee has a weird pre-queue line I can only assume resulted from it just opening back up after the rains. Probably less than 20 minute wait-worth of people tho. Drop Tower is closed. I'd estimate AE at 10-15 minutes. Racer's line is out to its entrance but only because none of the extra queues are open. Less than 10 minutes since both trains are running. I'm in line for it. Also, my husband was looking at the radar and warns me more rains look to be coming.

Nick_Plummer Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I'm going to the park tomorrow. My phone's weather app says thunderstorms tomorrow but weather.com says sunny for the morning and cloudy for the afternoon and no rain. I'm hoping it rains just a little bit and maybe the crowds will thin out but maybe the cooler weather will drive them away too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I can warn you it was fairly cool weather yesterday but it didn't seem to keep people away. Except the waterpark, that was fairly deserted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriTre Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 This whole summer has been wierd. Weather.com always is the opposite of what it's actually doing outside. Saturday I checked the weather an hour before I got off work and it said it wasn't suppose to rain for 4 hours. Called home and told the kid to get ready to go to KI and on the drive home the sky opened up and lighting everywhere. Looking out the window is my new weather guide. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magenta Lizard Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I would have to say, the crowds do seem lower today than yesterday, probably for rain. The craziness with the lines for Cirque seems to have slacked off since yesterday. There are only about 25 people lined up on each side waiting for the 6:30 door open. Hopefully it opens on time today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriTre Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 In line for The Beast wait time said 30 min but it seems to be moving quick since all 3 trains are running. First ride of the night but seems quiet. Post more as we work around the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MysticsTimber Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 In line for Diamondback. Maybe a 15-20 minute wait. Only one queue line is open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedevariouseffect Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 How does the park look..headed in here in a bit, about to change and start my drive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Beast has some of the extra queue off to the left open, Diamondback's queue is nearly all full, so probably 45min-1hr wait for those. The Racer is still like 5 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticsTimber Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Just left the park. Banshee was about 20-25 min wait. Vortex is about 10. Diamondback & The Beast were probably about an hour. Adventure Express was out to the entrance. Even The Bat was about a 10 minute wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark6495 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 Left the park to run home for a bit then heading back up here soon. Banshee was a station wait, looked like Diamondback was at the bottom of the stairs. Not a super packed park 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysticsTimber Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 How's the crowd right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 ^ Action Zone is crowded, Diamondback is to the entrance with no queues open, Beast is at the top of the ramp. Walkons on Racer and Vortex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bkroz Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Geez, I went on Wednesday and the place was packed. Now Saturday is a station wait for everything?! What in the world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 1056. The herd from Banshee ERT (and the "Honey, let's ride that new one first!" crowd) hasn't made it elsewhere. Yet. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharleyTheDinosaur Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 The running of the Banshee herd at opening has been one of my favorite things to watch this year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malem Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I would expect wait times to pick up. Diamondback is now at the soft drink machines, and Beast is at the bottom of the ramp. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
