First Riders

It looks like GateKeeper will be open for the 11th. That being said, do they usually give anything to the first few hundred riders? I know that, last year, I met a guy who had a Diamondback first rider shirt in line for Magnum. I would love to try to get one for GateKeeper, especially with it being my first Cedar Point opening day and my second coaster opening day, ThighCrush being the first. Hershey did not give out anything, to my knowledge, so will Cedar Point?

It's hard to say right now. The only thing you can do is to keep an eye on their twitter and facebook. I'd suspect they'd announce something like that on those 2 places. And who knows, maybe they'll see this topic and do it. ;)

Went to Diamondbacks opening day. My wife and I didn't even ride Diamondback first whe rode FOF and Firehawk first and still got a first rider shirt for Diamondback. I will have to say they were pretty cheap shirts. They were free. I couldn't say if they will do it for Gatekeeper. Won't get to see it till the 18th.

We will announce our Opening Day plans very soon. On Facebook. On Twitter. And on our website.

Come on, Tony...not right here on PB as well? The Official Unofficial forum of America's RollerCoast! ;)

I'm willing to bet that it will be posted in the "News" section upon release and if not, someone here with LOTS of free time will post it within seconds of any announcement.

Thanks Tony. I wasn't sure if that had already been talked about, but it's good to know that my questions will be answered.

Our Opening Day plans are now available. And whaddya know? FREE tees! :)

See you all there.
