I really want to go, mabye I will.
Busch Gardens just got a new coaster too.

Billydude · 04-10-2007, 07:48 PM

What's the coasters name? I've been wondering that.

sjoecool1991 · 04-10-2007, 07:54 PM

The Gryphon.
Its the worlds first Floorless Vertical Drop Coaster.

schweeeet

Billydude · 04-10-2007, 08:12 PM

yeshhhh

sjoecool1991 · 04-10-2007, 08:12 PM

Over 200 feet, 90 degree drop.
It is indeed awesome.

**Squeek** · 04-10-2007, 08:13 PM

Considering that ride opens May 25th and that's about the time you're planning on going, expect a 4-6 hour line for that ride.

I've been to Six Flags: Magic Mountain three times now. Once before their greatest ride opened, once a short while after their greatest ride opened, and once long after their greatest ride opened. Every single time the ride has been there, the line for it has been insane. 5 hours, even around dinnertime just a few hours before the park was to close.

So honestly, don't expect to be getting on that more than once in a single visit, unless you get to the park very early, it's the first thing you get to, and it's a very non-busy day at the park.

Even with the premise of this ride, I'm not too interested. Look up my favorite amusement parks and tell me if you see a trend in what I go to them for:

Six Flags: Magic Mountain
Cedar Point
King's Dominion

PS - In case you're wondering, the name of the ride is "X".

sjoecool1991 · 04-10-2007, 08:18 PM

Dude, I have always wanted to go on X.
The only multidimensional coaster on earth.

I love you guys.

My dad was planning on getting Busch Gardens season passes this year instead of Kings Dominion (even though it's like 30 minutes from where I live).. but.. I'll see if I can go by that time. I'm not exactly sure though, since school ends on June 15th for me.

By the end of May though, I'm pretty sure Ryusei will be staying here with me too. xD So, if all goes well, we'll both be there.

Squeek is a killjoy. but we all knew this already.

**Squeek** · 04-11-2007, 12:44 AM

Wasn't me who decided we should go to one of the worst theme parks in the country.

**Tasselfoot** · 04-11-2007, 09:20 AM

kill. joy.

Good thing about that park is its beautiful. It is also very clean.

Busch Gardens Tampa easily blows it out of the water.

Too bad Busch Gardens sucks.

Sorry Fish, but as a Virginia Beach resident, I'm gonna have to agree with Squeek here. Busch Gardens sucks ass. It's mainly a place for families to enjoy themselves; not have actual theme park fun. I've been to BG and KD more times that i can remember and I love KD more than BG. Sure BG is closer but I seriously suggest making this a King's Dominion trip. I might still go to BG, but I'll be one crabby Black guy. =/

The guy that owns Busch Gardens just bought all the paramount parks, they are doubling prices and you cannot get season passes anymore.

Uhm, wtf are you serious? =(

**Chromer** · 04-11-2007, 05:44 PM

King's Dominion anyone? =)

**nestlekwik** · 04-11-2007, 05:49 PM

I really need to get a Cedar Point season pass one of these days ...

I've been to very few other amusement parks aside from that one. When you live in northwest Ohio, however, Cedar Point is basically the only logical choice.

Ya, that or Alpengeist is my favorite at Busch Gardens. King's Dominion is alright but it's so damn dirty. Cedar Point is crazy though, went there last summer in the rain and rode the Superman coaster 5 times straight. Everyone should go to Busch Gardens.
