Talk about anything that has to do with Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor here.

I have noticed that this year RB has been having alot of short lines this year. ( probably due to S:UF's lines)I am enjoying these short lines. The longest I had to wait this year was 20 minutes. Has any one seen the line going through any of the switch backs this year? Because I haven't. I am guessing that in July it will get more crowded though. And next year it wil regain its popularity.What was the longest you had to wait for it this year?

I think the longest I have waited for any ride this year has been a half hour. I haven't even waited more than a half hour for Superman.
Go Bulls!

for me it was half hour, usually the sign says "60 Minutes" but it usually ends up being ONLY 30 minutes

I'm pretty sure that Superman is having an effect on the other ride lines in the park. The last time I was there, I rode V2, and Raging Bull during mid-afternoon, and waited no more than 15 mins for each. And the park was by no means empty either.Yet, I find that the times I was there this year, Demon actually had a small line!

I had to wait through hatchbacks this year.
You know how there is two buildings of hatchbacks i waited through the whole seconded one. Don't say that Raging Bull is the Best.

The longest I waited for any ride was about 20 mins. I only waited in the lines one day this season. Ive been to the park almost of everyday this year. I had to take a week long break from it because I went to camp. Anyway all the other times I went up in the exit with either my dad or my friend who have what we call the magic pass.

Sk8ergurl, Raging Bull doesn't suck

The longest I have had to wait was 45 mins to 1 hour. Alot of the times they only had 2 trains running which makes the line move pretty slowly.
My Top 5: 1)TTD, 2)Millennium Force, 3)Raptor, 4)Deja Vu, 5)Raging Bull

Yeah, what are you talking about Raging Bull doesn't suck! I always hear the GP saying " this is the best coaster ever".

I dont think it sucks either. I think its the best ride in the park. I respect sk8ergurl05's opinion.

Ummm... I love RB, and also, hatchbacks are a part of a car. Switchbacks are ride lines.

Park attendance has really sucked this year. The park has not hit any of it's attendance goals for any day yet.Bad stuff man. It will have repercussions in the future.

Yeah, it's kind of unfortunate that the industry is down. Although, I guess I should never complain if lines are shorter as a result.

Yea but if there are shorter line then the park makes alot less money because there are not as many people in the park and it could push back the opening of a new coaster! I
