Yes, I remember The Beast opening, but that was 1979. This is 2014 LOTS has changed in policies/technologies since then.I have ridden The Beast in snow but not anymore. I went to the park years back on a snowy day (had a pass) and on the way out was given a Snow Day ticket for an admissi9on at a later date. I gave that to a friend to use the next year but should have held on to it as I have never seen one before.
