How many times?

Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.
Postby Trailblazer Tony on November 13th, 2005, 6:30 pm
I know that most of you are like me and keep track of how many times you have ridden each ride? If not, then i really feel like a coaster dork, but i was just curious. What is the attraction/ride/coaster that you have ridden the most and the least? How many times?

The most for me would be Raging Bull: 33 times.

The least for me would be Winners Circle and Turbo Bungy, both of which i have not ridden yet.

I did last year over the course of the season, this year I didn't because it was becoming a pain after the first few visits.

Go on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday in June and set aside the final two hours for one roller coaster. Usually, they'll let you stay on if there's no one waiting for your particular row.

Haha, it would be kind of hard to go every Monday, but yeah, don't bother with Saturdays or Sundays. Weekdays are definately best.

Im around 300 for raging bull since 1999 and 130 for iron wolf since 2001. Ive lost track of the exact #.
The most ive ridden at once is Raging Bull for an hour and a half straight, iron wolf an hour straight, and american eagle red for an hour straight.

A furious storm once roared `cross the sea, catching ships in its path, helpless to flee. Instead of a certain and watery doom, the winds swept them here to Typhoon Lagoon!

At SfGAM my most ridden coaster is a tie between Raging Bull and Demon - both at 18 each.

The coaster I rode the most this year was Avalanche - 42 times in one night.
It's the most fun in the park when your laughing in the dark.

Demon would have to be 12, Viper 13, Raging Bull 25, American Eagle 15, Iron Wolf 9, Batman 7, V2 8, Deja Vu 7, Superman 8 that's all for me that I remember.
SF trips 09 = 15
SF trips 10= 11
SF trips 11 =7

Well for the most it's Raging Bull at: 90 rides <pretty accurate estimate

and for the least: AEB at 1 Ride < know for sure

Most in one season: 35 rides on Raging Bull < counted!

Least in a season: AEB at 1 Ride < that was when it was forward...

The Math behind it...
6(times I go per season)*5(times on bull per every time I go)*3(seasons I have been tall enough to ride)=90 rides
Do you ever wonder how they get that line over your sig?

I figured that. A couple of times it has been closed for up to a month due to power outages. I think you might like V2, I say try it in the back because it's great going all the way up the back spike. Since I rode it so much in the back this year, (since I normally would ride in front) I had a lot more fun on it.
