Thanks for all the pictures by any chance did you get to checkout the Sweet Spot? If so how did everything look is it mostly new desserts for haunt with a few classics returning or is it the same menu?

My only interest is dining plan items… so I didn’t look at sweet spot offerings.

Great to hear! They must have more food than they can sell-must not be as busy as they thought...

It's actually fairly busy and as of 8:15 many food lines are out the entrance with some decent lines for rides and mazes.

That. Yet people keep

posting pics from 6:30 of a dead park predicting the downfall of KI as we know it. Keep the whiney “I’ll never be back because they promised me haunt” crowd at home. They are doing fine folks!

Goes to show that the haunt mazes don't matter. Ditch the mazes and scare roamers and decorate religiously like Dollywood. ;)

This is more I’m an idiot or I’m confused:

 

One son I bought a regular drink pass, the other son I bought an Icee pass.  Later I upgraded the original drink pass to the icee pass.  Over the weekend they said one kid had a small icee and the other had the larger cup.  She couldn’t tell me which one was which. 

 

But any reason for this or just a weird SF thing?

That sounds a little more like a training and/or POS system issue (which would be a Six Flags thing) than something related to the drink passes themselves. I think the associate might've hit the ICEE button and the season pass cup button instead of the former twice. It's also possible that the system glitched and only allowed them to hit one, especially if both passes were scanned from one phone.

Very odd thing to happen either way.

There isn't an option for a larger cup with the drink plans. Sounds like a training issue. Icee or soft drinks you get the red cup.

Yeah super weird but makes sense. 

 

Which tracks earlier in the night we had to do 3 separate orders for our meal plans (all coming off my phone with the passes) as festhouse said she could not do more than one meal plans and drink at a time.

Jukebox Diner has now been relegated to  the "only eat there if I don't mind terrible food" category for me. 

We are there yesterday, and the burgers were left in open air, displayed sideways.  So the top was dried out and the bottom was greasified.  My friend was not impressed with it.

I got the chicken tenders.  They were huge, but hard to choke down. They were Sysco type institutional food and were literally mushy towards the middle. I gnawed off the edge of one.  Fries were cold. 

More than 80% of our meals went in the trash.  I mean, I have the meal plan, so it is what it is, but I learned my lesson and won't try the food there again.

The employees did not engage other than "what do you want?" and eye rolls and the gen z stare.   

This was even worse than Six Flags Over Georgia dining, both with food and experience. 

Compare that to the people at the stand by The French Bar...quick, making jokes and smiles. As well as Grain and Grill who smiled and served great food. And no gen z stare haha.

My Burger was good yesterday Onion Rings not so much. I agree the employees where not very friendly or engaging. The guy serving the sides had to ask the first employee what my side was. I mean he could have easily just asked me.
