Are you going to opening day? If so what are you riding first?

Getting up at 6 and heading over to Top Thrill Dragster!

Going to skip opening day but we are going to Media Day and Ohio State Day. Will head back on Sunday of opening weekend. Then we are taking a long weekend at the park the weekend of the 16th at Lighthouse Point.

Better practice your sprint. You'll have some competition from single rider 2 and the other "Dragster runners". I'll be enjoying my first ride of the season on OSU day. Hopefully it'll be as calm, respectful and as void of the annoying single riders as it was last year.

Do the single rider people talk your ear off runnning to the rides and discuss anything for that brief second in line?

I generally just ignore them at all times....so I can't really effectively answer that question.

I for one, like talking to people in line, single or otherwise, as long as they aren't hipsters, or think there's something magical about having a running record of number of opening days visited.

I just go to ride rides, and stuff my face with food, rinse, and repeat.

I'm definitely going to opening day. Don't know what I'm riding first, but it'll most likely be millennium

Scottyf, maybe its me, but one of us doesn't understand the true definition of hipster. Can you elaborate?

Obviously last year was crowded due to Gatekeeper, but what kind of crowds should be expected this year?

I will probably head for Maverick or Millennium when I get there.

I'll be there with a friend this year. Hopefully the weather cooperates so I can do both days on Opening weekend. Usually I take my sister, but she is sitting the year out due to her adding a new addition to the family. :hint: I'm also planning on being there for Media Day in case nobody knows from the facebook page.
