OK, Keisha....here is condensed version of what we did. Got there on Saturday at 11:30...park opened at noon. Complete madness!!!! The crowd was backed up past the skyway house. We were located about 50 feet back from the gate....anxiously awaiting the gates to open. As the Boston Marathon took off, we imitated a couple of drunk speed walkers and headed directly to Millineum Force.

15 minutes later I was strapped in and ready to go..... It was the best coaster I have ever ridden!!! Unfortunately rides would be hard to come by today. Note to self....don't EVER go again when they have a Christian concert series planned or opening night of Halloweekends. We ended up riding Top Thrill once (2 hour wait because of the breakdown), Maverick (AWESOME COASTER!!) once with just over an hour wait, Magnum once and Raptor at closing. We did a couple of the haunted houses (pretty good) and hung out in the Game Day Grill to slam a few brews and take in some college football.

Sunday was WAY better. This time we were right at the gate with a smaller crowd behind us. This time when the Marathon started we looked like a couple of drunk joggers. Walked right into the loading area of MF. Ended up riding it 7 times this day. Oh....and bugs hurt at night when you're going 93 mph. We rode Top Thrill 6 times, Maverick 4 times, Gemini, Disaster Transport, Wicked Twister and some of the tamer things. It ended up being the best day for thrill rides I've ever had.

We will be back for sure!!

MH nothing like the running of the bulls to the back of the park in the AM to wake you up!

IMO great thing re CP is the coasters are so ridiculously high + Lake Erie as far as eye can see = wicked assault on the senses.

i can't believe u got to ride maverick so many times! imo, the longest line after top thrill dragster.

did u do the mean streak? how'd you like the mistake by the lake (cleveland)...i can't mention it kindly in football season hee hee

Sounds awesome!

Football update.. we won a huge game last night.. We are now 6-1 on the season, and tied for first in league play. Really amazing considering this is our FIRST EVER season with football.

We are hoping that we can continue to improve, and work hard...

Have a great weekend everyone.. TGIF!!!

I Know!! I couldn't believe that when I heard it today. Apparently they were doing maintenance on it while the park was closed during the week and a bolt got hot and was in contact with the wood.
