Weds. July 13th, condor testing!

Let us know how your day at the park was.
Postby Raging_Bull on July 14th, 2005, 8:28 pm
Well the day started off slow....Vu didn't open until around 12:15 I believe (someone correct me) so that was a lot of wasted time there. Add to that the fact that SUF was down equalled very long lines for EVERYTHING. IW was using switchbacks, and Demon's line extended to the entrance. Vu had a full switchback area. Ugh it was looking like a bad day....until bam the sun came out and thousands flocked to HH. Excellent. The lines instantly lightened up, and SUF soon opened making it even better. Everything soon turned into decently short waits.

Notes:

-SUF didn't open until around 4pm or later.
-Condor did many test runs today (sorry if this is old)
-Vu valleyed between Tower 2 and the loop, don't know exactly what happened other than the fact that is was NOT a miscatch (again someone who was there fill me in).
-Got 1st dispatch in Vu row 1a after this breakdown ended.
-Pretty much everything but Vu and Bull was a walk-on after 8:30pm
- I reached 95 rides on Bull for the season :D

Ride Totals: (pretty low due to slow start)

AER: 3
AEB: 10
Bull: 7
Viper: 1
SUF: 1
Whizzer: 2
Demon:1
Vu: 2
Giant Drop: 2

Overall a very good day.
1. Voyage
2. X
3. Millenium Force
4. Top Thrill Dragster
5. Raging Bull

'05 Bull: 113
'06 Bull: lost count but not a lot

Wednesdays seem to be getting more and more crowded. I went last week's wednesday and the line for demon also was back to the entrance. (Luckily me and my friends had a mini-marathon first thing in the morning.)
