It's hard to say which specific things do and don't increase the gate... last night as I was walking out of the park, there were literally hundreds of people sitting in front of the fountains watching the fireworks. I would say the fireworks show probably added to their experience. Maybe it does increase the gate a little bit.

I don't love that they are closing lines early, but honestly 15 minutes isn't that big of a deal to me. If you really want a Beast night ride, just make sure you are there before 9:45.

Well, if a human had some organs that were only attached to their body with duct tape, and they went on the ride, those organs might fly off at the same spot.

I love Invertigo I'm just not always willing to wait in the slow-moving line for it...

I don't think this is exactly what you meant, but I have seen people enter the Fast Lane, get almost to the very end, then just before they get to the attendant they pretend like they didn't know what they were doing and go under the railing from the Fast Lane to the normal lane, cutting in front of all the people in the normal lane.

Just bad luck maybe... I don't remember either of those rides being down during any of my visits this year. Actually, Invertigo went down while I was in line one time, but it must have been a minor issue because it was back up within 10 minutes.

I voted for Invertigo. But I could also go with Drop Tower.

D’oh! I got the chicken salad sandwich. It was small but pretty good. A nice option for when you’re not hungry for a big meal.

Maybe it was closed earlier, but it’s open now at 6:15.

I agree, I have had it multiple times this year and it has never been even a little bit spicy.

Well the park was pretty empty all day today, and they stayed open up until the very end.

I would just estimate if you think you go on The Beast a little more, a little less, or about the same as Banshee. Based on that adjust your 116 figure up or down a little, then multiply that number by 3 to adjust from 7 years to 21 years. For example, you think you go on Beast 90% as often as Banshee, 116 x 90% = 104. Then 104 x 3 = 312 for your estimate.

We rode pretty much everything today, with no longer than a 20 minute wait for any ride... except for Flight of Fear, which we waited 1 hour 45 minutes for. Lol.

I’ll say this, there are definitely A Lot more security workers visible around the park today.

I’m pretty sure my brother bought that shirt at the park last year

Ok, it sounded like you meant something different. No worries.

Pretty sure it always was only Fridays and Saturdays until the last week of June.

I assume that's supposed to say "without"

I agree with sally, I think that just requiring kids to enter the park with an adult would go a long way toward reducing incidents like Saturday.

All lines were closed by 9:20 (not sure of the exact time)... even if they allowed you to re-enter, you probably wouldn’t have been able to get in line for anything. After there were fights etc., I’m sure they just wanted to get everyone out of the park, so I’m not surprised they stopped allowing re-entry.

I generally agree... I think tonight they had more guests in the park than they could handle with their level of staffing. Which is an issue in itself. I don’t know what they do about that in the short term, besides keep raising the amount that they are willing to pay workers.

I think the park closed a little early tonight due to some type of security issue(s).

They closed the line for The Beast early tonight. Edit: It appears they have closed off all lines in the park as of 9:20.

We were able to enter the park 15 minutes ago.
