I've been to Knoebels twice. The past two years. I haven't hit up too many flats. Not even the flyers. Flume is awesome, as is the train. Old smokey is rediculous. I've also been on skyride, Haunted Mansion, and Power Surge I believe it was called. I'd imagion getting on the POP plan for PPP will change this.

Wonderlands probably 6th. I don't hate it, even though the coasters are weak. At least there is a ton of them to choose from. Everything else about wonderland is fabulous and I love just being there. All of my top 5 parks are just so much better. haha

Statue of Liberty disease....

Anything somewhere else is better than most things at home...

New Yorkers often don't think much of the Statue of Liberty, and take visitors there but never go themselves.  After all, it's always been there.  Much like many locals have no idea just how incredibly wonderful Great Adventure truly is, and prefer Cedar Point...which must be better, after all...it's many miles from New Jersey!

This is also known as the CN Tower/Niagara Falls syndrome in Southern Ontario. I was 23 before I went up the CN Tower... never back since.
