V2 was closed until 5:30 pm! So it's hard to say what they are going to do tomorrow!

so they DID open it though? thats good! maybe that means it will be open tomorrow, what do u think? what about raging bull too, because if a kid really died on it, would they have to close it?

It would probrobly be open tomrrow, I don't see any reason why not (Unless Six Flags Corporation has a rule about this kind of thing.)V2 and Deja Vu wern't open today. Maybe they'll re-open tomorrow, or maybe they're closed most of the season.EDIT: But I was only there until 5:00, so maybe they did open it again.

yea i would think so too. i hope v2 is open too! if it opened tonite, i don't see any reason why that wouldn't be open either! that is one of the best rides!! (in my opinion ne way) lolbut yeah, the only reason i could think RB to be closed was so they could try to find a cause of death but if they opened it again today, didn't they? then they must've found out what it was already. so that's good! :)

The operator standing in fron of V2 is a big fat lair!! I went up to her at about 3:30 and asked if there was a chance of V@ opening. I was couriousbecause they were testing it and she said "theres no way that it's opening today." When I walked back over there at about 6 I noticed it going thinking it was just testing when I saw a devilish thing. PEOPLES FEET :evil: . I was so mad at that operator lying to me, because I had to go and didn't get a ride on it. Never trust what ride operators say about ride openings.

Yes someone did die on Raging Bull. Look through the forum on it. V2 did open today and it will be tomorrow. As of Deja Vu it may not open this year at all.

V2 finally ran today late because not enough people were certified to run it yet. It hasn't been running at all so its kind of hard to train ride ops. It should be ok for the foreseeable future.

When I was in line for Demon I saw it testing and that told me it was going to open today. When I got off Batman at about 5:30 or so it just opened so I ran to it. If it hadn't opened I probably wouldn't have met corey..

They hadn't run it all offseason until today which is why they ran it so many times before they opened it. They added a ladder to the back tower really late this offseason so it got running really late.

Yeah, I want to know about Dejavu! Why are people saying it won't be open at all this year? If that's the case then they should take it out if it is just going to sit there...
