On the preview day when the line stopped moving I'm assuming it was because they had to stop it at one point for a disabled guest to board and then again for them to exit. In turn this then stops the entire progression of all the other cars which is kind of silly. The cars need to be more spaced out for this reason, however that then lowers capacity.

I went on Friday during the season pass preview and the ride stopped in the last room while I was on it for about 5 minutes. They didn't say why it stopped but they let everyone on the ride go again.

Just got off of 2 rides right when the park opened. Joker's gas was the only thing that didn't work.

Which is total Bull$h!t, I have had too many people line cut me there. I refuse. Once A mother was waiting and all of a sudden 15 people were cutting the line and getting behind her and thus in front of me. I would have a said something but they would have spun it into a race thing which it wasn't it was strictly an ignorance thing! :evil: :twisted:

You should put the line jumper number on your phone then if this is such a big issue.

If you see line jumpers, the best course of action is to video record it with your phone and forward it to park management and social media. If you can get video of an employee allowing it, even better.

Six Flags Great America has change their line jumping policy for family's with small children. If your child has to use the restroom you are now allowed to leave the line and then go back in place were you were. Remember this is only for small children, 6 and under.

Went to Guest Relations on my last visit to report of Lo-Q employee allowing people to rejoin the line after a Raging Bull downtime. Safe to say I was disappointed.

How are the lines? My nephew really wants to go and we may take a trip to the park Sunday. Is it a good idea to go on this for the very first ride of the day? I am only going on it for him. I do not really want to wait over an hour...

On a Sunday definitely go on this 1st thing! The reaction has been overwhelming great and the line on the weekend is sure to be well over a hour. Curious as to why you don't want to go on it?

Dark interactive rides are not my thing... I figured we should go immediately. I would rather do a coaster but oh well...

Yes, just not on the ride itself.


I can confirm, but the Employee event was on Wednesday, May 25th. I'm not entirely surprised to hear pieces of the ride were not working properly, but I am. Because it all worked fine during the employee event.

It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle :?
Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? :roll: :P

I would try to go first thing Sunday. The line for this can get quite long if you wait until later. Longest I waited was 2 hours.

I believe the line jumper hotline goes directly to guest relations. If guest relations is busy, they might not forward the call to security, or information might be lost along the way. Instead, call 847-249-1776 extension 5009 (Security dispatch) and inform them you are a guest and are witnessing a linejumper, give the full description of the linejumper and there will absolutely be an officer dispatched immediately.

I've ridden JLBFM 3 times now on 3 different days, my last ride being yesterday. The ride is a hit!! I've improved from 60% to 50% and I'm now at 40% with 250,600. It's a great ride to ride with friends and family for some competition. My best ride was yesterday, all the effects were working and everybody in my car was very competitive (nobody came close to me though, of course). I agree though, they need shade for the line, it's brutal! I've waited in rain and heat, I'm pretty sure the tan line I got from yesterday was solely from Justice League's line.

Had my best experience today. Highest personal score of 214k, all the effects worked(even Joker's smoke cannon), and they FINALLY added a fan to the outdoor queue. I did say A fan, not fans, unfortunately.

Just rode Justice League for the first time and I really enjoyed it. I finished 3rd overall with a score of 132901. I agree with the rest of you about the outside line needing a cove over it. Overall the day went great. I even got a double ride on Goliath and the last train of the day.

At the park now. They have 3 permanent fans in the queue and 1 temporary one. They shut Justice League completely down, the ride, tv's, animatronics and such. Waiting for them to restart it.

Yeah those types of shutdowns were a common site during my visit to SFStL in March.

I read this post before my trip on 6/10. While in line I saw the single fan and LOL'd...then when we got close to it I realized that it wasn't even plugged in/on :roll:

My first time riding I got 255k. Shot it like a paintball gun with it close to my face/eye for a better line of site. That helped since my gun was shooting off to the right by a good 6" on the screen and shooting it like normal would put you off most targets.

Also I noticed that just about every other car had at least 1 yellow bag on the zappers, some had 2. Stinks with it being a brand new ride.

We went to it right at park open and still took 45min in line + ride time. By the time we were going in the building the line was almost three times longer than what it was when we started. We passed by around 5pm and the line was still the same length.

The single ride line will save you 10+min.
