Damn Chuck, where was I on that night?

Robert T Ackerman · « **Reply #28 on:** March 10, 2007, 08:45:29 PM »

Chuck, I think we had it bad... too much complaining... anyway, back on topic... I'll bring a girl with me to opening day that won't complain... well maybe a little... the only thing she'll whine about is not going on Nitro enough (I can live with that)

Wow Chuck, you're making me feel luckier than ever, lol. The only complaining I get is "The Terror Trails scare me". I'm always stuck in the position of constantly repeating "1. The trail isn't scary and 2. they're fun" while never getting to experience it.

lol, poor chuck... my wife even though the terror trail was lame and she hates those things... but back on topic, we definately need to come up with a few meeting times and places throughout the day.

Looks like it's pick on Chuck day.

My girl used to like coaster about 10 years ago
now shes got this fear about them and I'm trying to get her back on them.

the first was the wild mouse at Dorney last year and they are scary rides to begin with.
then got here on the Flying Unicorn,THe Mummy and the other kiddie coaster at Universal this year.

So my goal this year is the get her on rides that don't go upside down

Meeting times sound good

My family and I will be there opening day. Will end up hitting family rides first. Well maybe not. My wife waited all last winter to ride El Toro, when it was just about open ..she was just about 3 months pregnent. So she is dieing to ride El Toro. I hope it starts opening with the park but I won't count on it.

My wife even had a season pass a few years. Those years are long gone!
One day last year she decided she wanted to ride Kingda Ka!
I couldn't pass on that small window of opportunity.
I got her on it the next day! And that is all she went on.
No lines in the park and still that was all she would go on once!

I am sure you have either Jerry or George's cell number so be sure to call them so we can get a Gadv Central Meeting.

I may be able to get there in the late afternoon/early evening, but it is too early to tell.

evylvyxn · « **Reply #36 on:** March 16, 2007, 01:26:50 AM »

I hope to be there..if not..I'm so there one day that week

Ogolo · « **Reply #37 on:** March 19, 2007, 07:17:09 AM »

April 2nd has made it onto the 15 day forecast at accuweather.com.
It seems they can't even predict the weather a day in advance these days.
So we all know how accurate this is:

Partly sunny and colder

High: 49 °F

Low: 34 °F

>>Jackson 15 Day Forecast<<

The day before the forecast high is 68 °F!

WadeJ · « **Reply #38 on:** March 19, 2007, 09:04:09 AM »

OUCH... bummer. That is probably too cold for Kingda Ka, which we all know will result in annoying complaints online...

Like you said though, I have a feeling this forecast will keep changing lol

PcMan · « **Reply #39 on:** March 19, 2007, 03:55:34 PM »

I hope opening day is not a Late April Fools joke

Monday ? $:-\$

By having it on Monday
I think they are going for a "soft opening" to see how all the employees do ?

WadeJ · « **Reply #40 on:** March 19, 2007, 03:59:20 PM »

Soft opening is exactly what went through my mind as well Tom. Although I also have a feeling it might also be that a large percentage of the employees are on Spring Break that week as well.

Regardless, opening week should be a lighter load and hopefully allow everything to get into full swing before the crowds arrive.

Who know, maybe this is actually a good idea ?

PcMan · « **Reply #41 on:** March 19, 2007, 04:11:40 PM »

OK
I see they are open all that week and the following week (Spring Brake)

Also Easter falls on April 8, 2007 season pass day again.

Anyone Know how or when they will announce what coasters will operate during the Midweek early open ?

WadeJ · « **Reply #42 on:** March 19, 2007, 04:29:10 PM »

One thing that surprised me is that the website mentions "Park will open Easter Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. just for Season Pass Holders" which is strange considering many times, the group buyout you are sharing the park with makes it more crowded than a usual Sunday this time of year. Maybe it is ONLY season pass holders this year?

Anyway, to answer your question, I'd guess the main sixflags.com website will have it posted and I'm sure we'll be getting notified as well throughout the season.

As for opening day, its looking more and more like I'll be there

Ogolo · « **Reply #43 on:** March 19, 2007, 07:13:53 PM »

I believe the group that was usually there on Easter Sunday will be having their day on Thursday April 5th.

>Click Here For Details -> 26th Annual NCSY Chol Hamoed Passover Spectacular at Six Flags Great Adventure<.

So it looks like Easter Sunday is for Season Pass Holders only this year!
But definitely avoid Thursday!

w00t! for Easter!

Psst don't tell anyone

Ok back on topic I miss the Season pass/Easter day every year due to Family events.

UrsaMajor · « **Reply #46 on:** March 20, 2007, 06:50:46 AM »

I would love to attend the Easter event, but I can't due to the fact that its, well, Easter...and I, well, celebrate Easter. $:-\$

Ogolo · « **Reply #47 on:** March 31, 2007, 07:16:19 PM »

So any plans to meet everyone on opening day?

WadeJ · « **Reply #48 on:** March 31, 2007, 08:12:45 PM »

lol, we never did get around to that did we

I'll be glad to meet everyone at some point but it will need to be in the afternoon since I'll be busy with stuff going on until around 1ish.

Any ideas? Meeting spot? Time?
