i think the longest ive ever seen nitro is 45 minutes. owell the only other thing i wonder is i haent ben to the park in goin on 2 years due to military stuff. so does that thing were the park lets u in and holds u by the fountain or w/e still happen, then all hell break loose and people run for rides

There is never a wait when you take one of Great Adventure's amazing VIP tours.  Go right up the exit and get on.

Well I usually pop in late on the 4th just for the fireworks, but this year I'm thinking starting at HH, then being too lazy cook this weekend going to the BBQ in GA (drop a little $
to support the park. Besides my parents said the Mothers Day Brunch was good and worth the price).  Since I'm there might as well see the concert too.  Then I am looking forward to the new fireworks show.

the first time they did the fireworks preview this season, i saw the beginning from el toro, then headed over to the lake to see the rest.. it's excellent, it seems far more fireworks are launched in that timeframe than toms river seems to do in an entire hour from my memory. def. worth seeing
