I'm going to Bull. I'm a little nervous that I won't get first car of the day in front row, but I'm pretty fast and I'm on track so it all depends on how fast everyone else is.
It looks like i'm the only Ragin' Cajun runner here
 . Unfortunatley I won't be able to go until May 30thAntonio
i'm sorry but i find that really sad... but that okay! lol i have decided, too many people running to Bull, so i'm goin for American Eagle first!
I'm going to S:UF first, I intend to do S:UF, Cajun and batman in the morning and then just whatever I come upon. (Yes I have thought this out, it's sad.)
^^^
It's not sad, I have made plans too. You should be able to do a lot more than that before noon.
DejaVu "Shockwave lives!" The Ride
I am going to SUF first, HA to anyone running there, I have never not had first row left seat on SUF for first ride when I went there.
 Hope it stays that way.Universal Orlando Mechanical Engineer
Marathon down, Goofy to go.
^^ You are almost tempting me to get there an hour earlier.
DejaVu "Nah, I'm running to the POC named Vu'" The Ride
When running to Deja Vu, Raging Bull, and Viper watch out for all the new games in the midway by Orbit.
Yep, Seen it.
DejaVu "It will be the most popular game in the park. " The Ride
Keep hoping 
The only part I hate about having to race you for that seat is that I already know what happens if you beat me there. That and your 7years younger and about 50lbs lighter. It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.
so im planning on what to wear, prolly just pants a long sleeve shirt, and a sweater, i hope it dosnt rain, cause ill be freezing, but hey, what happens to the rides (roller coasters obviously) if it does rain?
during rain, most rides continue to operate. Whizzer and I think Deja Vu will shut down even in light rain. pretty much all the other coasters adn all the flat rides I can think of will remain open until lightning strikes near the park. then every ride shuts down until the storm passes.
as for actually wanting to ride a coaster in the rain, its usually not too fun, but you're not an enthusiast until you've done it. it was pretty funny to see some of my friends on Triple Play while it was raining once. it must have been two years ago at least. they wanted to ride, but I was feeling sick so I stayed under the shelter. they got on and were locked down and it immediately started POURING rain. they were stuck there for several minutes getting drenched. one of them managed to squeeze out from under the lap bar and ran under the shelter (she was a skinny little one). I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer? No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.
Going on coasters in the rain is quite an interesting expierence to say the least. Batman and V2 in the rain hurt so bad but for some reason I find it fun. Call me crazy....
I went once. it was either opening day or sometime around there. and it had stormed really bad up until like 9am. and then it just looked so bad all day. like it never rained or anything ALL DAY but the clouds were dark. and you know what?
The park was **Empty** the dark clouds and previous storms kept guests away ive never gotten on so many rides that fast in my life. i felt like the park was open just for me. yes its bad for business but that one time was awsome
Official Count? 3 Days & 1 Hour From 10am Central Time Today 4/27/05
I am so freakin excited. Whats the first ride we all plan on riding on opening day? Mine? - Probably Raging Bull or De Ja Vue (ha ya right, like that will ever be open, but if it is, ill be on it)
That may have been opening day last year... I think I remember that it was raining in the morning and cloudy for rest of the day and it was cold.. oh so cold but DEAD!! All I can remember is that is was freezing and dead.
Oh my its Wednesday
 only have to make it through a few more days. AE here I come.
Just so you all know I am planning on taking photos of HH construction. I will let people know once I have updated my picture site (WWW link under my post to see my photos).
with only a few days until opening day, I finally saw a commercial for it on TV. What's up with their advertising, eh? Don't they usually pump us full of that song and dancing man?
Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking, isn't thinking of.
If you want that song, just find it yourself. That commercial has been on the air for a while now, I have seen it about 7 times on TV. Advertising increases in May because most people go to the park in June-August.

Where am I going to first? It depends on the conditions. If it's windy, or rainy, I can forget D Vu'. I'm going the other way to SUF, V2, and BTR.
wait, if no one is going for v2 or iron wolf, im headed to one of those, v2 then off to iron wolf!
yeah i mean wow that is dumb!!!  Come check out my MySpace at http://www.myspace.com/bridge_and_tunnel_auth
yes, i remember it was opening day. it was cold and rainy. i had to buy a SF Hoodie because i forgot to bring one. grrr
This topic name should be changed into "t-minus 2 days!" around waht time is evereyone getting there? does anyone think i should get there earlier than 10 for a dash to American Eagle?
