Six Flags

So I went to Six Flags with Angie yesterday. We spent 10 hours there (minus an hour for dinner) and got on 9 rides: Scrambler, Scooby Doo Ride, Mr. Freeze, The Boss, The Ninga, The Boss (again), Highland Fling, Batman, and the Mine Train.

The place was really crowded, we waited an hour and 25 minutes to get on Batman. Then we waited 45 minutes for the Screaming Eagle, and we were the next in line to get on when they had to close the ride because of a "malfunction".

My two favorite rides at Six Flags St. Louis are Batman and The Boss, so I'm glad that we got to go on both of those. Our Six Flags is such an old park, I wish they'd have fixed up the amusement park part instead of building the waterpark. Or done like Worlds of Fun/Oceans of Fun and had a separate admission price for each and a discounted price if you bought a ticket for both. That was you're not spending $41+ to get in during the summer and only doing half the park.

Hey, I worked out there for 5 years. I know about those "malfunctions". We loved those!! That meant we didn't have to work@! When I worked in OPS (running the rides) I worked on Mine Train, The Boss, Highland Fling, The Grand Ole Carousel, Bumper Cars, Rush Street Flyer, the Swings, and Tidal Wave. Shoulda invited me, I coulda hooked ya up w/ some line jump passes! I love having connections!!

Personally I think they could get away with only Four or Five Flags.
