Goals at sfgam

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby sfgamer on August 16th, 2004, 12:52 pm
Now that the sf season is winding down I thought I might ask if any of you had a goal for this season. My goal was to go on every single ride and so far I still have Jester's, and the lower half of columbia. Post here if you had any goals and/or have met them.
I want the sfgam survivor to be held every July and August.

500 on Demon but i'll have to work my tail off with my hardest year of school comin because Read To Succeed tickets made the line really really long all night for a good span of time also I havn't been there in over a week and wont get out there for another week.
My other cheap unrealistic goal was 50 visits, bleh, i'm at 51 ;).

I didnt really have a goal this year but next year when I can drive my goal is to go there every week.

Since I go to the park only once a year, my goal is to ride every coaster once. When I went this year I didn't ride Ragin Cajun, but it's not that big of a deal. My game plan went very well though, 5 coasters in the first hour and a half.

^That would be hard to do unless it's the lift hill. My goal everytime I go to the park is to ride as many rides as possible. It's sometimes hard to do when your sometimes only at the park for five hours.

Dissappointed? That was the best Whizzer ride of my life! (We won't disclose the other coaster)

I did Dare Devil Dive this season and it was cool, but probably something I won't pay money for again.

SSR? Does it have anything to do with Russia? Abbreviations for more popular attractions are okay to me (BTR, D V, V2, RB, KC, IMS, SSA, RC, GD, Revy, IW, JWR, SUF, TTD, LR and so on), but sometimes I have no idea what you guys are saying (AGR at first, SSR, CC- Columbia Carousel or Cajun Cliffhanger, FF-even I made the mistake, D-could be Demon or Deja Vu, SWAT, RR-River Rocker or Roaring Rapids, DDR, and please don't do DDD-Dare Devil Dive.)

Of course, you don't have to listen to me, but if you do want to use one of the not so used ones, I would say the full name first, and then you can abbreviate afterwards in the same post.

Well, I had a few goals. #1 go on Dare Devil Dive. This one will have to wait till next year. I'm not quite ready to do this one. You can IM me to find out the reason. #2 goal was to go on SUF more this year than last year. My best friend and I did 17 last year. This year we are currently at 23.

The Big goal for the year is for my best friend and I to hit ride #50 on Superman Ultimate Flight (Last year's and this year's totals combined). We are currently at 40. We should be able to hit 50 between now and the end of the season.

My goal is to beat Brad on Demon rides in August, which may be difficult, even though I am getting a huge start on him since he is in Florida, and I got all my goals for this year: 20 visits-23 now, ride every ride- just completed yesterday.

I only had one goal, lose enough weight to fit on everything. 60+ lbs later I can finally ride every ride without the need of ride-op help for the first time in around ten years.
You can put it on the board...yes!

My goal for the season is to finally ride every (free, non-kiddy) ride in the park.
I am almost there, all I have left are Logger's, Whirligig, Revy, King Chaos, Balloons, and Ragin Cajun. :)

I guess that my 'other' goal is from now on to at least ride Deja Vu once a season. Last year didn't happen until Nov 2nd, and this year has yet to happen. :x

I don't know what you meant, but I mean every ride that is either free, or not a kiddy ride. :wink:

Heh, a little less than I thought. Scenic Railway, Ricochet, Chubasco, Splashwater Falls, and Rue Le Dodge.

You better hurry up with Splash Water Falls. Who knows how long it will be at SFGAm?

If they take it down for water park reasons they should put it in the water park. :wink:

My goal this year was to finally ride Deja Vu. The ride was closed when I went. It has been closed every year I go. I only go to the park once a year so this really sucks.

I envy all of you who have been on it!
