Just a quick question... I am a bigger gal and would like to know if anyone has had problems fitting on the rides,especially the coasters. I would prefer not to embarrass myself when I get there, only to find out that I don't fit on the ride. Thanks for any info!

The have test chairs in front of most rides where people have trouble fitting, try those out before getting in line, it will save you time from waiting in line to find out you are unable to ride.

Also if you fit in the chair or very close to... get up in the station, and on coasters and rides (Giant Drop) that have 4 seats in a row... go to the outside seats, that way you are not squeezed in between of riders, and you have more freedom, that helps a little in locking a lab bar\harness, cause u can relax shoulders or other body parts...

Even if you do fit on test chair and wont fit on the one in the station and they would ask you o leave... Do not feel embarrast, cause 1. It happens, 2. I bet you are sexy good looking gal :)

Enjoy your visit! ;-)

I have a problem with some of the coasters, V2 for instance hates my chest as does Batman. AE and Viper hate my hips but I still manage to get on those even though V2 and Batman well yeah I won't go into detail on that, save everyone from that.

V2 is a squeeze for me but I get on everything else fine and enjoyably. When I see people not being able to get on the ride sometimes I be like that's messed up, or maybe they should have at least one care on every ride with a little more room for plus size people. Just my opinion every one should have the chance to rid the coasters. Yet when in doubt try a test chair if the ride has it.

Seriously? Someone ask for advice and you attack them. Way to go.

Maybe people should attack you for your awful music taste? But people don't, because it's called respect. Learn what it is, instead of acting like teen pissed off at the world for no reason.

River Rocker is tight unless u are sitting in the direct middle of the ride. The Dark knight may be possible also the Ragin' Cajun, Whizzer definately, Most water rides (unsure of ur proportions on Roarin Rapids but i fit with someone else) forget Batman Superman V2 and Iron Wolf they are a challenge for the bigger person to squeeze into. forget revolution and whirligig. Viper and Eagle and Demon should be ok. Just try and see thats really all u can do.
