jbum123 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 And Diamondback will get much love from me today! Would have ridden Friday but the line for it was longer than the line for Banshee. Quote
The Interpreter Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Great day to see some Peeps in the park. Terp, always on the lookout for life's Easter Eggs. No trademarks were harmed in the making of this post. 14 Quote
CharleyTheDinosaur Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I just thought, "Did Terp really just use the word 'peeps'?" Then I realized it was Peeps not peeps. And all was right with the world again. 6 Quote

MrSaturdayNite Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Waiting at the gate now with my family. I'm in my Banshee First Rider t-shirt and a DHL visor. 1 Quote
Diamondback FOF Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I wanted to go up today but....too much school work and preparing for finals D: Quote
GODZILLA2877 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Anyone on here planning on going to the park today? Nope. Quote
GODZILLA2877 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Waiting at the gate now with my family. I'm in my Banshee First Rider t-shirt and a DHL visor. Are the lines long at the front gate? Quote
Bennett Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Two Banshee trains out in 10 minutes this morning...not a good start. 1 Quote
Coasterama Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Can anyone see how far Banshee's line stretches today? Quote
JTW Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 It was at Viking Fury when I got in line 25 minutes ago. However I just entered the queue and nowhere near all lanes are open. By now I'd bet it's crazy at the front of the park though. Quote
Coasterama Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 ^I'm surprised they haven't opened up the temporary queue behind Delirium. Quote
thedevariouseffect Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Even with nine people including sups and ride ops on platform...grr 8 Quote

MrSaturdayNite Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Seems to me we're moving much faster now. Also, the lines at the gate were fairly long, but at least they were lines this time. Quote
MrSaturdayNite Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Banshee ride #2 in the books. Ended up in 8-1 again. Awesomeness. This time I rode with my wife who was a coaster chicken until she married me. She loved it too. 8 Quote
Bennett Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 We rode in 8-1 and 8-2. What a coaster!!! Took 25 minutes from time gates opened until we were I'm the ride. No height restrictions posted, but I can state that anyone taller than 6'6" will have a tough time fitting in the restraints. Bravo, KI. You have a world class ride. 3 Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Is 8-1 or 8-4 the far right side of row 8? Quote

Kat Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Banshee is stuck. The Earth is the proper name of a planet, and thus should always be capitalized. 5 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I was looking at some more comments about opening day and I saw a few people say "this will be our last year as season pass holders". Uhh....you have the whole rest of the year to go...it was OPENING DAY. ^Banshee got stuck yesterday on the lift hill. Seems like a little kink that needs worked out. 5 Quote
KI FANATIC 37 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 It was only stuck on the hill Friday for like 3 min. It must just be a little glitch. Has their been any more problems with the brake run since Friday? Quote

Oldiesmann Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 It makes absolutely no sense for Diamondback to get seatbelts, especially after 5 years without them. I'll believe it when I see it. Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3 using Tapatalk 1 Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Edit: Move along, everyone. Nothing to see here! Quote
jdawg1998 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I don't understand the seatbelt thing. There is no reason for it. The ride is perfectly safe the way it is, and adding seatbelts would take away the best part about the ride! 3 Quote
