X2 at SFMM Hades at Mt Olympus Behemoth at CW Nemesis at AT Griffon at BGE

There is a tornado shelter by BLSC too. You can see it from the queue.

What cracked me up at the end of the night was when I was ready for another lap on DB, and markr turns to me and says "I have to use the little ACEr's room." It's a good thing I wasn't drinking anything.. it would have been on the pavement.

I was just a LITTLE irritated about the LJs at that point. That conversation was hilarious.

There was never more than one backwards Racer.

Nothing in my life would ever happen that would drive me to such a catastrophic and final thing. Angie, who has been depressed due to past events in her life, but has too much to live for and fights through it all

If it wasn't for Millie, Maggie, and Raptor, I probably wouldn't even go to Cedar Point in the first place. But Millie was the reason for my first ever trip to CP, the reason for my username, and the towering steel beauty in my avatar. I honestly don't know how I will react if Millie isn't fixed by CoasterMania.

SOB was a complete walk on.. I was astounded. I walked all the way to the station and only waited through one train for my ride in the front seat. They were running 2 trains too. Yesterday was awesome, with the park being deserted and the rides running at full capacity. The only other "line jumping" I saw was a little kid trying to find her mom and dad in the queue. That I can understand.. but adults should know better.

I decided today that I was going to KI after work if the weather was OK. So after I got off work at 3, I changed out of my work clothes, and drove down to KI. I got there around 4:15 to see that the parking lot wasn't even half full. When I got in the park, I headed straight for Diamondback. It was a walk on, I barely waited 10 minutes. I rode that three times. On one of my rides, I saw a kid jump from the regular line to the single rider line. I told the ride op about it, and she (Jessica) firmly told him to go to the back of the line. Go girl! I was going to marathon DB the whole time I was there, but I wanted a ride on Drop Tower. There were less than 20 people in line. I ran back and rode it a second time and pretty much walked on. While I was up there, I could NOT believe how dead the park was. Even SOB's and FH's queues were pretty much deserted. So I went over to SOB, and rode in the front seat of the red train. Unlike the blue train, the red train jerked me a little at one point, but I tell you, the front seat of SOB is a great ride. I headed back over to Diamondback, and passed Kawana on my way there. We compared ride counts in passing. I looked up at the sky to see some rather nasty storm clouds rolling in.. so I squeezed 2 more DB rides in and headed out to the parking lot to get money for food just in case it did storm (I'd only brought in my car keys, a few pieces of gum, and my pass). I walked back in as people were pouring out of the exit like the park was closing. The clouds looked like a tornado was going to poke out at any given moment. I walked back over to DB to see that they had shut DB down until the weather passed, because several claimed to have seen lightning. I got a pretzel with cheese and mustard (yes, I know, I'm gross.. deal with it! ) at the Snake Pit, and sat under an umbrella as it sprinkled and people continued to leave the park. I finished my food and walked to the back of the line, where I saw markr. We rode together for 2 rides, and then caught up with Adam (pkiboy). Adam and I requested front seat on our second to last ride, and got it. Kawana and markr rode behind us. We ran back for one more ride before the queue closed, and were told we were on the last train, but while we were on the brake run, we saw a half-full train going up the hill (where did those people come from? There was no one behind us!). Adam and I were kind of ticked that we wanted last train and were told we were getting it but didn't.. lame. That has never happened to me at Cedar Point! I left the park happy that I had gotten my 50th ride on Diamondback.. and no sooner did the park closing announcement come on than it started to rain. I am so glad that held off. Ride count in less than 4 hours: Diamondback - 9 Drop Tower - 2 Son of Beast - 1

I seriously felt a twist in my stomach when I saw that picture. I knew something was up when I visited CP on both the 16th and the 23rd of this month, and MF was having serious issues with the train getting momentarily stuck on the hill on both days, especially when it decided to give out for the last few hours on opening day. My friend James that works at Cedar Point tells me they are hoping to have MF back up and running by this Sunday. I don't want to believe this is real.. my poor precious baby..

I know right? I went out to my car midday on RWCW Saturday to apply more sunblock, and I saw 6 full school buses unloading in a parking lot that was a sea of cars. I was like.. are you serious..

Do whatever it takes to bring back RECAR. Reprogram and fix the Crypt so it's back to its old program. Reprogram and fix Delirium so it's as great as maXair. Do something to help Firehawk so it doesn't take 20 minutes to load a train. Remove the trims on Beast that weren't there last year. Install security cameras in every queue so that line jumpers will indefinitely be caught. Repaint Flight Deck and Invertigo. Sand down everything that has gum or writing or scratches on it so it looks brand new. Bring the Antique Cars back. Put in a Ferris Wheel.

I noticed that too the last time I rode it. It jerked us almost to a standstill and it was just kind of cruising through the tunnels.

Here's the one I entered.

I hope they get it up and running by HoliWood Nights.. we get ERT on it. I'm not usually one for water rides or even water parks, but that thing looks wicked. And right now my forecast says a high of 94 degrees for that day. You better believe I'll be hitting Splashin' Safari on Saturday if the temperature hits over 90.

Too bad I won't be on here at 5:30 to see it. There is a big red storm with black in the middle of the red, and purple in the middle of the black, and it's heading my way.. in fact I hear thunder now.. seeya! Good luck to everyone who entered!

Wow.. I am so sorry. Look on the bright side though.. whenever I have a crappy day at the park, the next one is usually pretty amazing!

Skydivers? I wasn't there this weekend. I am so lost and confused right now.

My best trips always seem to be the random ones where I'll just decide out of nowhere to go to the park.

You only named 8 of their 17 coasters and 1 of their 58 other rides. It kind of strikes me as unfair that you only rode a small fraction of the rides and coasters, and your mind is made up about the park.

Null vote. I would have voted, but: 1. I've only been to KI and CP, so it's not fair for me to vote. 2. CP wins over KI for me because I have noticed that CP has been strictly enforcing park rules. They are really cracking down on line jumpers, and bringing rides to a halt when they see someone with a camera. It made my experience as a guest very worthwhile to see this. As far as Cedar Point's coasters not being as fun as they look.. that's hilarious.

OK, it's not stuck anymore. Dvo told me it was. If you click the cam image, it gives you a larger picture. I have yet to have a rollback on that or get stuck on the top. I think it would be sweet.

It's $10 per person. If you have a platinum pass and it's not a Saturday, you can get buy a ride get a ride free tickets at the Season Pass Center at the front gate.

Show me a flat ride that beats this. Then we'll talk.
