I have to say that we may have to join ACE just for the riding of the bull event. Now that is a ride all 5 of us can ride and that event sounds like a lot of fun .

I would recommend joining ACE.  I believe the Riding of the Bull event is $18 when you have a season pass.  That's a much more reasonable price and a very good value for what you'd be getting.  Unfortunately, we can't attend this year, but I'm hoping it's successful enough that it becomes a yearly event.

Went on El Toro 5 times this morning . The park was INSANELY crowded did all we wanted to do Except Kingda Ka . The line was out past the sign for the ride . WAY too long for me . Bizarro was not running for Rise and Scream .

Like the Vacuum. They shoot alot at GA, haven't seen them this Season yet though. I took the Day off from the Park today. First Saturday in a while I haven't been at the Park. Now is when it start's to get too crowded for me, I don't like lines. We might go early tomorrow for a few hours, then leave when it fills up. I will be going this week after Work. I try to go alot during the Week while School is still in, and they will be letting out for Summer soon, so enjoy it while you can.

Rise and Scream was decent (who can complain about rerides on El Toro)
But boy did it get crowded yesterday!
It seemed like right at noon everything had a huge line.
Either summer is here or TobyMac is really popular.

We were actually trying to setup a group outing for our church on August 15th because of Sean Hannity's freedom concert.  Imagine my surprise when this separately ticketed event sells out months before the actual date.  Yes, a concert with Sean as the host and Christian music artists sells out Gadv's arena months in advance!  So needless to say, the park will be insane that day.  For the record, the reason it is a separate ticket is because the proceeds benefit charity.  And the concert ticket does include park admission.

Wait...a GOOD religious crowd?  Why did I miss this?  Between Disney and Great Adventure, I have never had the pleasure of dealing with any religious crowd that was an overall good experience.  I either end the day frustrated with people of my own religion, or embarrassed for another religion that they were represented in that way.  It's pretty sad.

You are forgetting Easter sunday for the buyout Reggie. They are usually well behaved to lol.
Yes, I've heard the same thing about Disney but that doesn't as much surprise me down there. Unless I'm missing something, gadv generally has no problems with these events?  Other than perhaps the norm since it's also open to regular guests to. I hear ya though!  Sad :(

They're ok...except they trash the park.  It's hard to get a group that's well-behaved and clean, lol.  It's usually either "I believe in *insert deity here*, so I don't need your rules!", or "I believe in *insert diery here*, so I don't believe in trash cans!"  I would always give the new group a chance, but just about every time they proved they were just like the others. :(

Any large group is bad. I worked my last buyout day in 2002. I'd need to be paid extra to ever do that again!!

There's nothing like watching more people try to board from the exit of the ride than the entrance. And the kids who's parents work for Phizer need to see more of the belt!

The most shocking thing I ever saw was during Pfizer day.  I watched thus guy get a tray that was overloaded with a whole pie of Papa Johns, fries, two orders of chicken fingers, and a couple sodas.  Back up from the counter with them, bite a chicken finger once, turn to the right, and dump the whole tray in the garbage.  I was stunned.  My only complaint with them was that the garbage cans were so heavy, lol.  Otherwise, they were mostly clean and polite, which was all that I asked for at that time.
