Millennium Mania-9/16

Maybe not exactly Millennium Mania, but close enough to it. It was better than paying not to re-ride on Friday even though I enjoyed myself.

Arrived around 2 and the main lot was had a fair amount of cars in it, yet most of those people must have been looking at boats instead of riding coasters. Good for them. I walked in and was greeted by empty seats on Raptor, always a good sign. I rode Sky Ride and saw empty seats on Magnum, another good sign. I walked over to Millennium Force TM and found a short wait.

The line for MF was about 20-25 minutes throughout the day. There was this one time though as soon as I got in line a train got stopped on the lift fro around 15 minutes. Usually the "Millennium Force is now down due to a mechanical problem" i hear so much would be played on the speakers down by the queue's, but apparently even that was down mechanical so we got yelled at. Most people stated "I'm not going on MF, it isn't safe" and left line so I was on the ramp when they got it to work again which surprised me actually! I hoped right back in line again after that for about a 15 minute wait.

Later I went to Magnum which was emptier than during Millennium Mania. Trims were turned off and it was running very fast! I saw Jerry with counter in hand so I knew he was up to something. He probably got near 80 in for the day.

Went back to MF and the line was well up the ramp, just like MM. Got a total of 7 staple free rides on the day, which is always good :). Still nothing like the first 2 weeks of May, but I'll take it!

--------------
2001 Force- 222 (I like that number)  Magnum-413
Gemini- at least 100
"MF has broken down and still hasn't been fixed, consider kicking Joe out of the park"

I wasn't to happy about how Millennium was run. One of the supervisors told Richie that he couldn't have the special access gate open. He also told him to take a train off. Then he had to close off a car!

After all that was done the line was before unload. Eventually they put the third train on again, but, that just wasn't right!

All Though through all of that I got 31 rides. But, those were some off the best rides of my life!:)
