Closing Day, 2004

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Mr. SFGAm on November 1st, 2004, 7:23 pm
I figured I might as well do a run down of my spur of the moment trip this past Sunday.

Superman: 1 time, 0 min wait.
1st train of the day, and a great ride as always

Batman: 3 rides, waits were 0min to 20 min.
What can I say, awesome!!

V2: 4 rides, 0 mins each
This was our little marathon of the day. Got 4 rides in a row without having to walk around.

Iron Wolf: 3 rides, waits were 0mins to 10mins
Took a middle row ride, then a front row ride(which was awesome!!), then a back row ride(never again!)

Spacely: 1 ride, 0min wait.
I made my friend ride it with me!!!

American Eagle: 5 rides, 0 to 10 min wait
3 on red, 2 on blue. Rides were good, but not stellar.

Demon: 2 rides, 0 min wait
For some reason we only did this twice.

Whizzer: 1 time, 15mins
Fun ride, had to do it at least once!

Viper: 1 ride, 10mins
Great ride, but didn't get back to it.

Raging Bull: 5 rides, 5mins to 20mins
Our one 20min wait was through a 10min breakdown. The mechanic came, opened and closed the airgates a few times, then the ride was back up. Rode this twice in a row to close out the night.

Giant Drop: 4 rides, 0 to 10mins.
Did it once, then ran around and did it three more times in a row!

King Chaos: 1 ride, 5mins
My first time on this ride, and I really liked it! It was a bit on the short side but it was still a unique ride!

NOTES:
*I didn't hit my goal to ride every ride in the park this season. I couldn't convince my friend to go on Whirligig or Big Easy Balloons. :P

*Got in line for Ragin' Cajun. We stood there for about 10 mins, and didn't move an inch. So we said screw it, and went and waited through BTRs ghetto switchbacks in about the same amount of time!

*My friend even noticed how bad American Eagle's paint is looking.

*Neither of us felt like waiting for Deja Vu.

*During our front row ride on Iron Wolf, I must have leaned against my cell phone too hard, and accidentally called my house. After our ride was over, my phone rang and it was my mom. She said that the phone rang, and when she answered it, all she could hear was banging and screaming. She wanted to make sure I wasn't in an accident!! :D

**Is there anyone on this site that was on Raging Bull at around 5:30pm Sunday??
The reason I ask, is that we rode in the last row of the red train with this guy, and girl. The girl got caught trying keep her restraint up a little high, and the ops pretty much thought it was our whole row. She was wearing a navy blue champion sweatshirt, and had blondish browninsh hair. I was just wondering if that was anyone from these boards.
I was the one in the orange Columbia coat, with brown Carhartt hat.

Well, It was a really fun day, and also a sad one. Sad because we have 6 long months of offseason ahead of us now.
Thanks for reading, and thank you to Six Flags for a great year!!! :D
Finally Coaster Season!!
