I might be in Orlando then.

In other words I don't care if I'm there or not if I'm in Orlando...

If you are there at opening, you will for sure see at least a handful of us. Many of the regulars on this site will be there right at opening. Personally, I will probably be running toward Dejavu(if it is open) or Raging Bull.

I remember last year's opening day I saw a lot of people. I remember that guy who wouldn't let us pass him, that is until a few kids just said screw it and took off running.

Anyways I'll be home from Orlando 3 days before opening day, so I'll be at SFGAm.

I'll be there for sure. As of now, I will be there around 9:40, but this year I'm making sure that I don't sign up for anything that is on that day. I'll probably run right to eagle or bull.

What entrance did you guys wait at last year? I usually wait at the entrance under the railroad in hometown square.

Who knows when I'll get there, I'll just have to force my dad to not take his time like he always does so we can get there before 10. Last year I waited by Orleans Place, and ran to BTR. Good times.

I will definately be there on April 30th, unless something would come up where I have to work overtime at work.
Almost everytime I go to SFGAm, we wait at the Orleans Place gate. Last year we ran with the bulls to SUF!
Finally Coaster Season!!

I usually wait by the Orleans entrance as well... I usually find that side as being less busy around opening time. We usually get 1 or 2 rides on S:UF, 3 or 4 rides on V2 and 2 or 3 rides on Batman before 11am!

Yeah, because I always wear a roller coaster shirt to the park, and I only have four roller coaster shirts that fit.

I'm running strait to Eagle red, then blue, then Iron Wolf.

Eagle usually doesn't open both sides until 11 or 12 on a normal operating day, it could be running both sides, but I doubt it.

Slipknot, welcome to the fourms but, hmm you said you could go to the park opening day because you missed alot of school?

Unless you have like a horrible streak of Saturday dententions lined up between now and April 30th,

You should be okay unless of course you dont have a ride, because SFGAM's opening day is on a Saturday :)

My buddy and I will be making a road trip of it. SFGAM opening day then a Reverend Horton Heat show at the Metro at night.

If I can get my aunt to come down from WI and babysit, my daughter may be coming with us on Opening Day (She's 42.5" and fearless, Demon anyone?)
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.

I'm thinking B:TR this year instead of the normal Raging Bull run, who knows I got time to think about it...
