Official Goliath Thread

[Chitown]

I will say this. With the removal of Iron Wolf and Ragin Cajun, and the addition of X-Flight and Goliath, SFGAm doesn't have a bad coaster in the park in my opinion. Yes, even Dark Knight coaster which I found to be cool and fun for what it is.

[JimPanky]

theyve definitely been moving in the right direction thats for sure.

Only a week behind schedule. Not a big deal.

Do you have to be in a coaster club to get invited?

Yes, or part of the media.

[stockboy300]

I would love to go to the midnight till 2 if they have it!

Picture that the park posted on instagram today.

In the photo, you can see that they are working on putting a roof over the part of the station that has been expanded.

So can we assume that the Season Pass Preview is on the 30th, with an opening on the 30th?

[Jacklw6499]

Only a week isn't too bad! I just hope they will still have a season pass preview day.

[DejaVu2001]

^ I'd say it's a safe assumption that all events will still happen, just one week later.

True! And is this confirmed by Six Flags guys?

I had the xtreme pass for xflight and got to ride from 9-10 on the day the ride opened. I didn't get off for the whole hour. I hope they have a special season pass for Goliath.

Does anyone know if the midnight to 2 was true or just a rumor?

It seems like they are just having gold, regular, and thrill passes this year. If they ever did something like getting to ride an hour early, chances are that'll be with the gold pass. We'll have to see!

It's true. I have a ticket.

For the media?

[SFGAm Viper]

No. The midnight event is not for media.

For people who are still confused about the two events, this was posted a few weeks ago and explains it (add a week to the dates now, apparently):

The nighttime event from Midnight - 2am is ONLY for people who got special tickets directly from the park. They were given out at NCC, construction tours, etc. They said they might sell tickets to the public, but nothing has been announced as of now.

The following day, Friday May 23rd, is a regular operating day for the park, 10:30 - 7. On that day, anyone can with a season pass can ride Goliath. Just show it at the queue entrance and you're good to go.

And everybody should stop worrying SO much about what's going on - I'm sure the park will make it quite clear when it gets closer to the time, and it'll be discussed here endlessly. You won't miss out on anything you are entitled to go to.

There would be no way on earth I could attend a night event with classes on Saturday mornings, I was just curious. I figured it was the tickets they handed out at No Coaster Con, but someone on another page made it sound like they're having 2 midnight events so I was confused. Looks like the pass holder preview will be May 30th if everything is bumped up a week. I should be attending that.

[Guy_With_A_Stick]

Looks like some more lift/zero-g stall supports went up today.

Looking at the virtual renderings, it looks like they're almost 1/2 way done with the lift!

[Jackluver18]

Is Season pass day going to be the 28th if Media Day is the 29th? Or is it going to be the 29th and Media Day the 30th?

Media day is the 29th
Season pass preview day 30th
Opening day 31st

Everything is getting pushed back a week! I may be wrong but I do believe everything is getting pushed back 1 week!

[Jackluver18]

Ok great, thank you so much for that information. Just wanted to make sure

Not a problem!
