I like going in the park and ride Millennium Force in the morning. Now thats the best replacement for an energy drink any day.
Day till the first turn, then night the rest of the way, though the drop at night is just as awesome (looks like toy cars driving at night) but still prefer the drop during the day...more intimidating
I love to look at the lights (it's easier on Millie than Dragster) around the park at night, but I prefer to ride every coaster without the bug snacks.

By far, me and my wifes best ride on the force was last year, Halloweekends. Second to last ride of the night(dragster was last, we and only a handfull of the cleanup crew where left in the park by then). Anyway, all the fog from frightzone was at the bottom of the hill, it was like falling into nothingness, probally not a word, but that was what it was like. Force on halloweekends is the best.
MF in the dark is about 10 times better than it is in the light. The light effects on your way up the lift makes it much more thrilling. Seeing the shadow of the cars ahead of you crest over the top adds to the intensity.
I Personally could care less weather its during day or night that i ride it, yeah at night you don't know where you going half the time, but during the day you get to see the drop while your traveling 93 mph down it! All i know is that millennium Force is the Best Coaster out there in my mind, i love it, TTD is good, but its short, if they would of made its longer, added some hills or sumthing to it to make it at least a minute long it would be awesome!

Oh man. I had my first night time Millennium Force and Dragster (front seat!) rides during Halloweekends, and those were the two most amazing rides I've ever experienced.
On Millennium Force...my last coaster of the season. It could not have been better. The lift hill was beautifully lit up. Yellow train, front seat. I remember not being able to see the crest of the lift hill...just feeling my ears pop was enough to know we were near the top. Then the drop...we picked up speed so fast that I had to close my eyes through the first turn. The rest of the ride was basically a blur, except the final turn. I remember sadly realizing that those were my last few moments on a CP coaster until the '05 season. I walked away from that ride with extremely chapped lips, and got in trouble for taking so long to get back to the car, but it was a thousand times worth the experience.
Pardon my raint... ;)

ive ridden millenium about 5 times and all have been during the day, 2 in which it was raining (quite painful but still awesome). i remember my first time going up the lift hill i didnt know that it had an elevator lift and i was taken by surprise at the quick pace we went up the hill. i really want to ride it at night, i have heard so many great stories and it sounds like so much fun. i cant wait for the '05 season, i intend to ride millenium 5 more times and hopefull atleast 2 at night to experience the thrill of seeing nothingness.
We'll miss you MrScott and Pete
On a halloweekend me and Vince982 rode millennium in the rain which caused this weird dark fog which was awesome because going down the hill you couldn't see much of the track.... oh yes the mystery of the abyss....just awesome! Also if you ever get the chance ride raptor in the dark! *** Edited 12/8/2004 9:06:50 PM UTC by XxKaKaDeExX***
Good conversations happen on Magnum (screaming in fun* Is that your hotel?, Yes!, awesome, does it have a pool, yes but it was sorta crummy!, aww too bad*continued with screams*
Best time to ride MF is at night in the front seat with a nice cool lake breeze on a warm summer night. The worst part is picking the bugs out of your teeth and off your clothing when you are done riding.

Has anyone here ever been hit my a bug in the eye? They sure do sting when they hit your face, I would imagine it wouldnt feel to good if you caught a bug with your eye ball.

I like Millennium Force after it has been 90+ degrees all day and then cools off some in the evening. Millennium just flys then!
Tony I couldn't have said it better myself. Happiness is having the"10-11" stamp at the end of an extra hot day and waiting for the front seat. ;)
I don't care for early morning rides when it hasn't "Warmed up". I can tell by watching how fast the trains are running through the first and last overbanked turns whether or not she's up to speed. Does anyone else do this?
Millennium Force Laps-168

I like Millennium Force the best at night it is awesome that it is dark and not lit up excpt the light show on the lift hill which is awesome. it still gives a great ride durring the day time.
