Rock N Rollercoaster crowds before closure?

[03Poohmom]

Hello! We are planning a day at HS the first week of February. Rock N Rollercoaster will still be open before it changes over to the Muppets theme. I'm wondering how this may affect crowds. Do you think it will draw people away from some of the other big headliners, since it is the end of an era for that ride? We are trying to decide where to start at rope drop and plan our day. We are staying off-site.
Thanks!

We will be there later in Feb and are planning to rope drop RnRC for just this reason.

No, it won’t make a difference to you. Later in the day it might see slightly increased popularity but for those for whom Last Ride is a big deal that won’t show until the last couple days- and even then they’re likely to be local or bloggers or diehard fans who otherwise wouldn’t be rope dropping the other attractions in the park.

It’s not a bad rope drop choice for off-site folk. Frankly the other rides tend to be slammed by the time off-site are allowed in so RNRC & TOT are solid choices to start your off-site day anyway. And do show up early, they will allow you to start lining uo near the ride long before official park opening.
