What didn't you like about Maverick?

You mean this late in the season there are still rides with 45 minute to an hour wait at CP? Jeez, thats why I don't like going there, its always too busy. When I went to Kings Island a week ago or so there was no wait on anything except for Firehawk and it only had a 1/2 hour wait.

So when is the best time to go to CP when it won't be ungodly busy. I still have nightmares about the last time i went. We were there for 12 hours, and in that 12 hour span I rode like 7 rides I think. Shortest wait was the 45 minute one for the corkscrew. It was a saturday, and yes the church youth group I went with in 1995, not very smart for picking that day. BUt yeah it was literally the most packed I had ever seen an amusement park!

I eventually got sick of waiting and went into their Giant Arcade and thats when I first discovered Mortal Kombat 3, which might of been the highlight of my trip! After all, I was only 15 years old at the time.

In days of old, the first weekdays the park was open in May were desolate, and the park near empty. Not this year.

In years past, Halloweekends Friday nights have been excellent times to go, particularly the first couple. There are those who say the same of Sundays then, but I am not one of them.

May and June seem to be good times to go. July and August is packed, even on weekdays.

He only spoke of 2 rides that were .75 hrs. or longer. That really is not bad for CP, or any other park for that matter.

Think about this. There was a 1 hr. wait for a brand new coaster at CP. TTD, one of the better rides in the park had a .75 hr. wait. MF only had a .5 hr. Did you expect something different?

I really don't think a .75 to an hour wait on any day at any park is bad for a couple of the best rides there. Especially on the Friday of a holiday weekend.

I guess I am trying to figure out what is considered "too busy".
