seriously sfguy5, not to be mean, but all of those questions have been answered in these forums somewhere.

all rides that can operate opening day will operate. there's no telling which rides those will be, but you can bet that SFGA will work as hard as they can to get all rides open. of course, they've already said that the new rides in Mardi Gras aren't going to be ready, but I'm talking about all the other rides. from my experience, opening day usually isn't too bad.

the rides in Mardi Gras will be closed, but SFGA management would have to have lost its collective mind if they were to make everyone walk all the way around the park to get from Superman to Batman. most likely there will be a path to allow everyone through while the areas under construction stay blocked off. revolution should be open as it was under construction since before Mardi Gras, but, again, no one here really knows. and if they do know, they can't tell.
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.

Try moving a little more to the north, like north and west of Green Bay. You'll find plenty of hillbillys. But then again, I shouldn't talk. I'm a Yooper don't ya know! :lol:
Finally Coaster Season!!

All ive seen of it is gas stations, restrounts, and a few little run down houses. Fits in with the surrounding (middle of nowhere).


One question...Then why were you there in the first place? And just look at Gurnee -- there's not much there besides SFGAm and GM.

I went on November 1st and it rained alot. If it rains that is fine. But if there are thunderstorms then the rides close down. So if u wish for rain u might end up with thunderstorms and no rides


I was at SFGAm on November 1st also. Deja Vu kept having to be closed because of the intensity of the rain
It's green. It's blue. It's all over you! Enjoy your ride on Déjà Vu

I like the countdown Dave! Yeah that's way too far away to predict for the weather. We're still talking over a week. Don't listen to them

Papas, I know your just as excited as the rest of us...so quit pretending your not, I mean, you visit the park enough in the offseason to take pictures. I think that says something. :lol:

Sher i'm excieted to get back on SFGAm's coasters, but i'm not gonna wet my pants over it, it's been a nice offseason and I really needed the break from SFGAm. I went everyday they were open in October except Columbus Day, you get fatiuged after awhile (especially when your going off a foot held together by tape :slight sarcasm:).

I can't wait. I'm just going crazy! I haven't been on an amusement park ride since January. And i know that some people probably haven't been on a coaster since october or something but, i'm just insane.

Not that I can type.
