Batman: The Ride 6-27-04

Date: 6-27-04
Time: 6:45pm-9:03pm
Ride: Batman: The Ride
Park: Six Flags Great America

Well, it was about 6:30pm, and Im like, Im bored, so Im going to go to Six Flags, ride Batman: The Ride, and talk to co-workers as I get on. I get first ride on 6:45pm on row 8 (no wait). No rerides. Ok, so I run around. Run up station. Then I get up and Im like, meh, got all day, so I might as well get row 1. Well, I would have had to waited 3 trains, but there were only 2 people so they asked me to go with. I didnt refuse. I met up with rctfan1556 and then we repeated run-around process for the next couple hours until it was closing. By that time, I reached a new record for a coaster. I went on Batman: The Ride a total of 26 rides. Heres a rough highlight of it all: 4 front rows, 8 backrows, 4 re-rides (8 total there) and then 6 misc rows. Overall, I had a blast and can't wait to come into work tomarrow and talk about it with them.

that's cool, I'd go on batman that many times too, but that's always one of the longest lines at SFMM

[Oscar]

yeah, sfmm always has a long line for batman, rain or shine too.

Final count: Shortkid: 26 Me: 24(only because Shortkid rode twice before I got there). It was a blast, I can't wait to do it again someday.

thats proper raast! I once rode Nemesis inferno 8 times in half an hour, or something like that, I did make a post on here about it. I don't think that quite compares to this though 26 times!! thats just brilliant.

In England it would be probably nearly impossible to go on a ride more than 20 times really, the queues here are just far too long for most of the season. It seems to me that rides in america have little or no queue on the most part for a lot of the coaster season, what makes me laugh is when you see pictures of coasters and the trains haven't even been filled because there wasn't enough people in the queue to fill them. That just doesn't happen here in England [V]

it does at fantasy island. I had to wait about 5 mins sitting on a train, for the train to fill up enough to be dispatched...sucky. But then again you have to pay like $5 to ride a coaster there, so riding it 20 times will cost you $100 sucky. Also im not one to ride coasters over and over, otherwise that coaster just becomes boring or me and also to repetative, but meh

cool

Ah.. the single rider queue on Inferno, Colossus and Air is a god-send!

That Raging Bull record ill try 2 break im going 2 sfga in 2 weeks

ok, good luck
