Of course theres better rides, but Batman is still great, even if it's short, then just ride it more often :twisted: . And about the blacking out, Ive never blacked out, but I do get blood pooling in my feet, not sure what the explanation of that is, but the pain is definitely worth the thrill in my opinion, as are any other pains (head bumping, side smashing, its all worth it)

Don't you think that Batman has one of the longest que lines of all the coasters?

yeah, but I think Vu and V2 are probably going to be longer...don't know that for sure though as I haven't been on either one yet.

/\ I hope your not implying that Mondays are empty because Mondays are not the least crowded day on average, it is Tuesday and Thursday followed by Wednesday. That is on average, those three days tend to be less crowded than Friday through Monday.

American eagle now has the longest queue line, it's like a maze.

I was going to say excluding American Eagle, but I haven't seen its new line yet this year, so I didn't know how long it was. Is it a lot longer than the previous one? The line in the tent seemed really long.

Batman does have a really spread out line (once they open up the part behind that food place (forgot the name)), but ae may have more length, its just more compressed in a tent...theyre both really long...

That's what I originally thought, but I guess next time I'll take eveyone else's advice and ride it more, as long as the line isn't 2hours like it was when I rode it last. That's the main reason I was saying it was too short.

Maybe that is how I should look at it. :D

I have to say Raging Bull has the longest que [when it's full] for a coaster there.

I've never blacked out or felt light headed or had my feet hurt before on any ride. Maybe I'm just lucky... 8)

I rode it for the first time with my eyes open on opening days. Usually I blacked out but this time I could actually keep my eyes open.

[quote="David"]What's really funny, is that you think I'm from the GP (General Public). When indeed, I most likely know far more about the coaster, as I've rode it multiple times. [/quote]

Has this ride been extremely busy for you guys this year? Whenever I tried to ride it, the ride was overflowing out of the queue area.

Just get in the queue. Sheesh. Even when the front part and when the zig zags are all open underneath the broken road the line still goes quite fast. The line constinaly moves, meaning it's not much of a stand-still line. [This is excluding the second entrance]

Whenever I wait in line, it seems like it is easily 1 and a half hours or more.
