It always warms my heart to see that thing count backwards. Annoys all my friends though cause i always tell them to the hour until SFGAm opens.

Dudes! Only 61 days left until opening! First, and worst off-season! lawl
You are both nerds. You know on the moon, nerds have their pants pulled down and they are spanked with moon rocks!

Hey! W're not nerds, at least I'm not, I'm a geek! ;/
whatever. I still can't wait
Chances are you probably won't make it opening day...just sayin'
13 Years with SFGAm World!
I should be at opening day, unless I work that day. Got a new job this week, we work 10-14 hour days 7 days a week, though only certain weekends are mandatory.

Why would that be?
Since everyone knows that I know everything about Six Flags(Great America), they always always ask me so I do feel smart and weird at the same time.
lol...........just to clarify
Everyday that passes I get a little more excited for the opening day!! Cant wait! My first ride is gonna be Raging Bull or Batman. Whats everyones first ride of the season gonna be? Who else absolutely cannot wait any longer for the park to OPEN?! I KNOW I CANT!!! Its on my mind more than once a day now.
On opening day I fully expect to be there before open, will wait a while to enter park, after I'm inside I have no idea what I will ride first, though if Whizzer is open when I stroll pass, that will likely be it, for the duration I will more than likely not spend a dime and be bored by 1:30 in the afternoon and want to go home, although I'll stay just to go out to dinner with other people who normally go on opening day.

I'll be there an hour before opening filming from the parking lot. Once the park opens, maybe a ride on Whizzer then off to more filming for the day.
Big question! How do you guys get your cameras/phones to stay in your pockets on the rides? I've been thinking of back pocket, but I'm fat.
Cargo shorts are your friend in this matter.

^^Zipping pockets.
I really need to get zip pockets. I've used cargo shorts this summer, but held the pocket closed. I spent $150 on a phone, I'm not going to let a roller coaster destroy it.
I'm going to look for some good zip-pants.

I can usually get to S:UF fairly fast then move to V2 and Batman next.
Also my plan. Im going around riding everyone in a circle. Top 5: 1) El Toro. 2) Maverick. 3) Millenium Force. 4) Diamondback. 5) X2.

I'd suggest that, but I've been told multiple times I was not allowed on a ride with it on.
^ I bring mine and I'm allowed to wear mine when I go on the rides.
SF trips 09 = 15
SF trips 10= 11 SF trips 11 =7
^ I've been going to the park for over 10 years with mine, and I've never had a problem. Everything fits in it, it zippers shut, and I never loose anything.
So, not sure why you were told you could not ride with it on. Maybe it has to do with the size? I know mine is on the smaller size, but I have seen some bigger ones. I do know that the lap bar / seat belt / harness must be on you as designed even with the fanny pack on. There have been a few times when I had to adjust it so that the lap bar would sit down in the proper position. Maybe yours was to big? --Brian
Mines a small Kings Island one we bought last year and got rejected on Viper at SF Great America, Tony Hawk's Big Spin (and Mr. Freeze, but they had a place to put it by the train) at SF STL and S: UF at SFOG. Had no other problems at any park and fits perfect on any ride. It might have just been new employees taking the locker policy way too literal. I'm moving to cargo pants due to the amount of stuff I'll have on me. A small camera, video camera, extra batteries for both and other stuff won't work with a fanny pack. Plus my fiancee won't let me go to a park anymore with one 
Can't wait for opening day!

Does that mean you won't be able to hang out? I'll be going opening day to hang out with all of my awesome coaster friends I met last year at the park and hopefully meet some new ones. 13 - GateKeeper
14 - Millennium Force 15 - Enchanted Tales with Belle
