Shortest Wait

0 minutes. Front row, first train out on closing day!

Oh wait, but that's ERT.

Hmmm...opening day I got 15 minutes for the front, but that was toward the end of ERT.

Alright, so shortest line without ERT or Joe Cool was 5 minutes with a front-of-the-line pass.

well, this is a great question, and i have a great answer. i went to millennium-mania in 2000. 5 rides open, and there were less then 900 people in the park. i rode MF 22 times that day. it was a walk on ALL DAY. the only wait was for front seats. it took longer to walk all the way around and back up to the station then it took to get on the trains. it was the GREATEST day of coaster riding in my life. (btw, 22 rides on MF was plenty, i was actually sick of riding it that day.)

TTD=4, MF=44, Magnum=654532546342343

Ahh yeah, Millennium Mania was insane. I still have my wristband from the first year. Riding Mantis 20 times in a row without getting off with an entire train to myself was an interesting experience. :)

I also lost count after about ride #50 on Millennium Force.

Millennium Mania... 0 mins... rode 12 times without getting off. After that they made us get off. Got back in line and rode like 6 more times.

Opening year we went at the end of August when they close at 8pm, and waited only 15 mins.

If you go during Halloweekends, can you really get on several times and wait very little? If this is so can you get a train to yourself sometimes?

15 minutes using Freeway Pass but I guess that doesn't count. One time, the estimated time was 1 and 1/2 hours but it was only 1/2 hour!

Race For The Sky!

I have a new shortest wait. Last thursday I got on millennium force with a 5 min wait.It was after a big rain and it was right at closing.It was the deadest I've ever seen cedar point.

In 2001 I made my only visit to CP. I visited the first Friday and Saturday of that years Halloweekends. I drove from Dayton airport and was about to arrive almost exactly when the park would be opening(6pm). A downpour that looked like a monsoon hit the area about 20 minutes prior to opening. I bought an umbrella nearby spoke to someone in the store who told me that extreme downpours were rare. I thought it may actually be a blessing and proceeded to the park.

That whole night the waits were from 5-15 minutes. I got about 3 rides(1 in the front with rain pellets hitting me and my daughter) and before I left to ride some of the other rides oopen that night. My plan was to ride all the open rides and finish the park's other rides on Saturday. At the end of the night we went back to MF and rode 8 more times. We also got the last row of the last train of the night. The ride op told my daughter what a priviledge it is to get that row on the last train. She felt real special. It was a ride I'll never forget! Airtime all the way down the drop.

Anyway, next day the line was 1 hour. We took one ride the park opened(15 minutes). All and all I would say were EXTREMELY lucky . BTW, I think CP is awesome. I was very impressed with the operation, employee enthusiasm, and overall atmosphere.

I got 11 rides on the first Fri. of Halloweekens 2 yrs ago. There was a monsoon 20 minutes before the park opened. The waits were 5-15 min all night. I got a front seat ride and a back seat ride(last train of the night). I was with my 7 year old daughter. She loved MF! That was my only trip to CP. Talk about luck!!!!!!

Next day the line was about 1 hour all day long

When I was staying at Lighthouse Point I got the 2nd train of the day with a 5 min wait. 4 of them were waiting for it to open. Without getting in early I waited about 20-15 min. My longest wait was 1 1/2 hours. It was a long time to wait in the heat, but totally worth it.

When I was at the Point on the 25th, i got in early and waited about 15 minutes. the other 2 times i went on I had to wait about an hour both times, but it was worth it.

i got in early and fast walked to millenium force. got there for the second train, and there was basically no wait whatsoever.

30 mins. on halloweekends. go on a friday on halloweekends. hardly anybody is there.

I got one of those stamp things (forget what they're called). I still waited around an hour though (for the front seat). But the shortest, about a half hour. Then right after it, I ran to the entrance and got in right before it was closed for the night.

------------------
Courage is not the absence of fear. It is over comming it.

The shortest I have waited is 45min. Is MF that empty during HW? I have never experienced a MForce walk-on. Even on a good day during HW would the lines still be that short? (When I mean good, I mean weather wise)

I managed three rides on Millennium Force in half a hour once. Before my illness got the best of me and I couldn't walk straight. Couple of kids noticed me come and go from the exit and entrance, and followed me my last time around. Think they continued on for four or five more rides before everyone in the park realised MF wasn't broken down any more.

Park Admissions, FreeWay and even a little time in Guest Accomidations -2003

I've walked on numerous times during Halloweekend Fridays. I remember last year I got 19 rides on the Force in a 3 day span during Halloweekends (the whole weekend). As I recall, though, I didn't go on the Force once on Saturday, very crowded, but the rest of the rides hardly had any line at all. Wicked Twister had no more than a 10 minute wait.
