Geez, can you believe its almost over. Well is anyone making it out for some last rides on Toro? I'll be there later in the day till closing if anyone wants to meet up...
-
I'll do the best I can but I'm not sure yet. I was originally supposed to be going Friday night but I see it is supposed to rain.
We definately need to try and set something up though. This season was way too much fun to not say our goodbyes for 2006!
-
I probaly am going Friday night as well. So if you go then, let me know.
-
If I only had the time and money to close out the season...
I did get to say my goodbyes to the park Friday night though, as well as catch up with some of my friends. El Toro also gave me one great ride to tide me over for the winter. :D
-
I wish...oh, how I wish.
But I guess I will be at a Cedar Fair park that day...sigh.
At least there is Six Flags Over Georgia's season pass day the following weekend. The Georgia Cyclone will just have to do! :)
-
I wish all the parks didn't have to close on the same day. We'd love to close the season on RT like we always used to, but with Boulder Dash closing the same day, that's where we'll be. We'll stop by GA at opening on Saturday for our final RT rides of the year.

I can only go from 10-2 Sat and 10-1 on Sunday.
-
I'll be there sunday.
-
I will most likely be there Saturday morning or early afternoon for a few hours..
-
I'll be there Sunday only if Robb goes!

I was going to go Friday night but now it looks like the rain will be late fridya to early Saturday.
May try late Sunday
-
Tom, thats the best time to go. It looks like I might be there every day this weekend...
-
I'll be there Friday. It's been a good one, definitely a memorable year. *tear*
-
I will be watching the weather and radar very closely Friday
Friday is the day I want to go and if it's light rain I will be there with my rubbers on :) BOOTS that is.
And bundled up.
I would love to get walk ons on ET and Nitro like I did last year when it was drizzling even the hayride was a walkon everything
KK was closed during the light rain
I will bring my clear safety glasses
lets pray for drizzle
-
I think I'm going to try to go Friday Nite.
It looks like it might be a good nite due to the changeable weather situation!
I assumed my trip 3 fridays ago was my last, but I need a few more rides on El Toro!
My wife thinks I'm crazy! I
Just the thought of no El Toro for months is driving me to go.
Maybe I'lll see some of you guys tonite...
Winter jacket, scarf, and gloves time!
;D
-
Does Toro run in the rain ? or drizzel ?
looks like it will be a game day decision tonight
Haven't been on toro since bulls 2.
-
Toro will run in light drizzle as do all the other coasters except Ka.
If you click the weather icon at the top right, it will link you to the details forcast. Then click on the day and it will give you a hour by hour (just like weather.com). Its showing only a 30% chance of light rain until 11PM tonight which is when they change it to 90%.
It is kinda shame because it looks like the final Saturday of Fright Fest and for the entire season will be a wash out. 90% chance of steady rain all the way up until 5PM when it changes to light showers still at 90%.
-
OH, I should have mentioned, I'll be there Sunday. However, my ability to meet up will likely be limited for certain reasons but I'd still love to say hi to everybody.
Perhaps we setup a Sunday meet time?
-
The earliest I can be there is 5:30pm. I have to work until 3pm :(
-
I was about to head out to the park in a few hours but looking at the radar it doesn't look good. Drizzle fine but I would hate to drive a hour to find in poring and rides closing
see radar below

I also store these sites in my Pocket PC phone so I can see it coming and be prepared
-
Be a man! I am leaving now for the park...
-
Hope it's open for you, Chuck!
-
Eh, I changed my mind. It's a steady light rain and its cold.
-
Yeah. I can put up with cold. I can put with wet. But cold and wet normally finds me at home.
Smart boy! :)
-
Wow...I just got back from the park.
I got 2 rides on El Toro and left due to lines and rain.
I lasted about 1 hour.
Not only was it cold and drizzly, but it was pretty crowded.
No walkons tonite.
And lots more people were still coming into the park. Amazing!
When did they get those extra sun shades on El Toro's queue?
Now the whole queue is covered. Very nice but a little late!
Or maybe I only noticed because it was protecting me from the rain.
It is Crazy how popular these Halloween events are!
Time to go warm up!
-
So even in this weather the park was packed?
Wow.
Just wow.
-
Are you serious! It was a steady rain and it was freezing out, good thing I didn't go.
-
Wow, I went for an hour also but got a toro ride, RT ride and 4 Medusa rides and left without waiting a second.
Heh, all depends how you plan your day I suppose.
-
I might go tomorrow but most likely not because I have to finish up a school project that needs to be really good.
-
I was there today, I MAY be there tommorow
-
I'll be there around 5-5:30 tomorrow.
-
Uh, tomorrow is Monday. Ain't they closed then?
