Just an FYI. The gates open at 10:00 a.m. but the rides don't start until 12:00 noon. Even at 10:30 a.m., they have people directing cars where to park - usually not near the white roller coaster. Tailgating should be a little discreet as they have a sign posted at the entrance "No picknicking". Make sure you bring your bathing suits as they have a swimming pool plus a new water park (I haven't seen it yet, but I think it's like the Six Flags water park.) Is there a list yet of who may be going?
