I think the 3-week theory is wrong since it actually blew 2 motors earlier in the season. I do, however, think it could take up to 7 days from July 4.
I went July 5th and yes the ride was down, but i was talking to an employee and they said that they were planning to have it open that day, (but they didn't). Anyways, my point is it that if they were hoping to open on the 5th it makes me think it isn't too serious of a problem and it should be open soon!
Btw it was really weird to be at Cedar Point and not have the blue monster screaming through the park... :(
There is nothing quite like becoming a human windshield on Millennium Force
Yeah, the employee lied to you. My guess is the conversation went something like this:
You: Is it going to open today?
Employee: Maybe.
The park 'plans' on opening it everyday...

el oh el! are you really?
Whatever employee said it would open by 2pm didn't know what they were talking about.
Was anyone there today? I will be there from the 10-14th. So hopefully she'll be on track.
Above All The Rest!

Millennium Force will not be in operation today (7/8) according to: Today in the Park on CP's website.
The motor is missing, part of the driveshaft is on the ground next to the building there, the cover is lying on the ground "wherever convenient" as someone said, and it's the weekend. My guess is we have *several* days left until it's open again.
Not to be confused with Twisted Wicker 08 from 2002
Aviator? ;)
