Summer has been boring so far so I'm going to write the whole trip report.
5-22-05
We got to the park about 10:30. After the band teacher got done giving us info my group got my friend with a brokken leg, free freeway passes. So by the time that was done it was about 11:10, so we got a time on Dragster. Before going to Corkscrew, two of are party members annouced that there was no way there getting them on that. So they went off and my friend, the chaperon, and I got on Corkscrew front car, then headed to Dragster. Thanks to my friend it was a half hour wait but it had to roll back and ended up being an hour. The chaperon got on a car a few ahead of us because he would have had no one to ride with. So when my friend and I's turn came up he sat down got up and said I'm not doing this. So I went on it alone, this ride is awsome. After that we went to Famous Daves and got something to eat and went on the bummer cars for my other friend who threw up on Spacelys Rocket at SF. Then we rode Iron Dragon which real sucked. So it was almost time for the band awards but me and my friend Mike jumped on Blue Streak real quick. This ride has alot of air time which I didnt think it would have. So after the award ceremony it was 6:00. We got on Raptor which we had a time for. Then we broke into smaller groups. My chaperon took my anti-rollercoaster friend while the rest of us headed to Millenium Force. 10 min wait thanks to my friend. But when he got up there he was to fat, and my other friend chickened out. So I rode this one alone again, but I wasnt freakin out like before TTD. So we walked towards the back of the park. Me and my friend Mike rode Snake River Falls, which is fun but never do it as late as we did. After that we walked and Mean Streak. We were going to ride Magnum but the line was to long with the time we had left. That was the only ride I wish we would have got on. So instead we finished the day off with Wildcat. Over all I'd give the day a perfect 10!.

From your first post, it sounds like you like SFGAm better. However, in your signature, you have four CP rollercoasters as your favorite rollercoasters compared to two SFGAm. So, why do you like SFGAm better (if you do)?

Rollercoaster wise, Cedar Point kills GAm.
But I just get a feeling going to GAm that I didnt get at Cedar Point.

When the train doesn't make it over the tophat and rollsback to the launch position. I have yet to be on one, odds are pretty slim but I would love to experience that...

you get to launch twice then too!

I agree with that statement. GAm has such better atmosphere while Cedar Point just always seems like a concrete jungle. Also, as most of you know, I live near people who worship Cedar Point as the end all be all of amusement parks which contributes to my dislike of the park.
