Well there you go. Rides, food, entertainment, ribbon cutting and characters. Everything media day would be and more. I wonder how many enthusiasts will fork over the money?
I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.
Well they deserve this :P
Depends on the price for me. I'm not one for needing to be the "first rider" either way, I'll enjoy Steel Vengeance as soon as I'm able.

If the cost of tickets aren't too high, then I will. Sounds like these will be fixed price rather than auctions like they did in the past. Even if they have tiered ticket levels, I would be happy with the lowest available, I don't care if I don't get to ride front seat, first train or whatever.

Hoedown allows for each passholder to ride SV once.

Will I be able to ride Steel Vengeance during Passholder FrontierTown Hoedown?
Each guest will be given a one-time boarding pass to ride Steel Vengeance upon arrival. Guests must meet all rider requirements in order to ride. Ride availability subject to weather and maintenance conditions.
There will be a lot of people needing to be made whole. I wonder if that is a new business opportunity?

Does anybody recall how much the valravn benefit was per ticket, not the first rider? I remember that being pretty costly.
Thanks
I wonder how the boarding passes will work. I know that my platinum pass holding wife will definitely not make use of a free SV boarding pass even if we are able to make this event. I wonder if it is 'transferrable'. If so - some enthusiast (won't be me BTW) might be able to brag about getting a second ride on SV during the passholder preview nights. W00t!!!
Proud to have fathered a second generation coaster enthusiast destined to keep me young at heart and riding coasters with a willing partner into my golden years!
Will there be liquor? If so, get some shots lined up and have a real hootenanny and play "Entitled Passholder"
The rules are simple: a shot must be taken any time a passholder whines or bitches about something at the free event with free food. You must also take a shot for anyone who tries to sneak a second ride on Steel Vengeance and then yells at the greeter when they are denied.
You'll be drunk as a skunk in no time!
This game also works at any enthusiast event under the alternate name "Entitled Enthusiast".
Charity event preceding the Passholder event was just posted.
