Trouble At Great America and other stuff.

A few friends and I made the trip up to Great America yesterday. It was a busy day, not the best day to go. But what really made it interesting was when a car on the Giant Drop got stuck at the top with people on it. This was the same car that was releasing later the others all day, the same one I went on earlier. They were stuck up there for 10-25 minutes. That would have sucked especially since I hate heights. Anyway, there were a few other things that I noticed were new from when I went opening day. I have photos for you:


The people stuck at the top. Yikes!

Raging Bull: 3
American Eagle: 1 (only running blue side, I don't like the blue side)
Batman: 2
V2: 1
Whizzer: 1
Viper: 1

We mostly went on the flat rides, like the bumper cars.

No Little Dipper pics? [:(]

Uh, did you ride demon? Or did you just leave when you saw the gum train?

Demon sucks anyway.

^Demon is awesome. And so is the Blue side of the Eagle, just not as good as the red side.

I rode Demon towards the beginning of the day, and my neck hurt the rest of it.

Yea Sorry, I didnt start taking pictures until the drop broke down and we were leaving after the demon and then the whizzer.

And yes and did ride the demon and I need to stop because it hurt my shoulders so much, Im to tall for it.

I like the red side of the american eagle so much better. I hatre being on the outside of the helix and it more fun IMO.

Why would you hate being on the outside of the helix? Does it matter?

Im terrified of heights and when it rattles like a mad man I feel like im going to fall out. but thats just me lol
