i'm not sure about capacity at the theme park, but i thought that it was 750 in the waterpark before Tornado was put in. I don't know what it is now though. Correct me if i'm wrong please.

I think it was around 7100. I remember a number around 40,000 being theme park capacity, and they damn near hit it a few times last year. Thats when the "Park Crowded" signs came out. I've never seen the "Park Full" sign yet.

There can be a little over 9000 people in the waterpark, but only about 7600 can be in the water/attractions, hence waiting in lines for wavepool. They let more than water capacity cause they some people wont go in the water.

The park was about 50,000 last year with the waterpark open, but should be about 43,000 without the waterpark.

^I had that number..ugh I can't think of it though. Try googling it or searching this site. It was in a press release before the new spaces were paved.

I was there that day during fright fest last year where they put up those signs and the lady at guest relations said something about near 44,000 people so I think park capacity would have to be more than that.

I remember a day when I went with my cousin who works there, and she said there were about 32,000 people there that day, and that was packed. I'm not really sure about the actual capacity though.
i'm rocking the suburbs, just like quiet riot did...

That is not necessarily true, the bathing limit is 7100, but there have been instances that they have allowed up to 9300 people in Hurricane Harbor, they do this because some people will not be going to use the pools or slides.
