Well I got to the park at about 9:45 today. I quickly got 5 rides in a row on top gun, back row, yellow train, left seat. I never even had to get up. I think I even stole back row left from BGW Freak [or some other CC member I saw at opening day] (sorry man :ph34r: ). It was then 9:59 and the ride op wouldn't let me ride TG a 6th time, so I just joined the crowd at the barriers and walked briskly to the flyers at 10:00.
The flyers were good, but there was a 30 min. line for most of the day, I still managed to get in 8 rides though B) . I finally figured out to snap consistantly on my 5th ride (5th all-time ride). I then went over to thrill zone for some rides on hurler and DZ. Later, on my 6th flyer ride, dukefanswimmer89 and some of his friends came up right as I was getting in the flyer. I think I did a good showing my stuff to his friends, who hadn't ever seen the flyers before.
We all went over to thrill zone, but didn't end up riding so much of anything because the lines were getting REALLY long. After that we went to lunch at wings. We then went to the flyers and rode them as a group. dukefanswimmer89's friends were like snapping naturals and snapped awesomely their first ride. We then went over to the country fair and rode Frenzoid (THE NUTCRACKER!!!) and thunder road.
After that, there was a conflict in opinion amoungst the group and we split up. Dukefanswimmer89 and I just kinda did random stuff throughout the park but did more flyers than anything else. The other losers went to the waterpark and waited in long lines for stupid slides.
Towards the end of the day all the peeps that hadn't ridden borg more than 5 times (everybody but dukefanswimmer89 and me) waited in line for borg. Dukefanswimmer and I then rode the flyers 3 times in a row while the other losers waited for borg. Dukefanswimmer89 and his friends' ride then pulled up and so it had to wait for 40 mins while the friends got through the borg line. One of the friends got to ride borg twice (lucky B____) because there were empty seats. He could have ridden it 3 times, but his ride had to leave right THEN.
After all of those guys left, I rode the flyers and top gun another two times each. I now have 21 top gun rides for the season, while dukefanswimmer just has 20 (
).
Overall it was a fun day, but the park was the most crowded I had seen it in years...
