Opening Day Ride Choice

In honor of only 100 days being left until openeing day, I pose the following scenario: It is Opening Day 2001 and you get to the park before anybody else arrives and are told that you can have one ride before the park opens to the general public. Which ride to you choose and why?

"What Goes Up Must Come Down My Friends!"

I would love to be the 1st rider on Millennium Force from the general public in the new season.

-------------
Going Monday the 7th Not Sunday the 6th.

Definately Millennium Force because it is my favorite ride and I could start the new season out right!

-------------
What's Life If You Never Get To The Point?
Boring!

MF COUNT: 117

Demon Drop (tradition)

-------------
Number 1 And Only Cedar Point.

It would be a tough choice between Millennium Force and Magnum. I guess I would have to choose Magnum, because it's still my favorite.

Become an employee and your wish will come true

Hands down Magnum.

Millennium Force. It just has a special place in my heart since I watched the birth of that big blue chunck of Intamin Bliss.

We bought a lifetime supply of pudding? How wasted were we last night?!
*Dude, Where's my car?*

Raptor or Magnum

Raptor

"Ride till it hurts!"

The Midway Carousel.
{traditon}
-------------
"Does anyone know what type of dog spot is?
A Cedar Pointer!"

Raptor, it just seems to give the most exciting ride for me. Just as long as I can pick what seat I want, I will definately say Raptor!

-------------
Trim brakes-a necessity???

Right now it looks like mine will be a Soak City slide. Probably Eerie Falls. :)

I most likely wont go to the Point till after Soak City opens.

Mf, I don't care if it's much slower than it would be at night, I'd still want to ride it before anybody else.

I just committed TO being there on opening day, opening up the reservations booth at the front entrance. The mornings are my favorite part--walking down the midway before the guests are allowed in, and then watching the mad stampede for MF. Come visit me on opening day!

I'm deffinitely going to race to the Millennium Force queue when I get there May 6th morning. I've had too many dreams lately about that darn thing to not go for it. But if I get lazy and just want to ride a ride, it will be Raptor (which is incidentally my favorite ride--first coaster of mine)

Disaster Transport. It was the last ride we rode last season 5 minutes before closing on closing day. It will be the first ride we take on opening day. I think a lot of things at the point are tradition.
