the frount seat of mf

Damn it SteelMonsters you suck! (Just kidding I'm only jealous...)

I was also there closing day but I only got to be the third to the last ride of the season and got stuck in the middle! Ugh!

'02 Trips to CP:31 (never enough)

Second to last train of the season for me. Could have been on the last train, but some old lady yelled at me for standing off to the side and refused to move on until I got back in line ahead of her. You just can't argue with old people.

The last ride of Millennium Force in the front seat of the season isn't as good as you'd think it is. [/me falls out of his chair laughing]

Why can't CP be in a warmer location, and open year round? Yes annual passes cost more, but your free of this horrible season also known as OFF-season. Only about 6 months till I get more Millennium Force. I'm going to my room to cry about it.

It wouldn't be that exciting then. People wouldn't love CP as much if they didn't have to waiit through the DAMN winter to go there. That's the whole fun, the pain, the torture, that's what they thrive on with the pubic. Otherwise people would just be like, "Eh, Cedar Point, I went last month!" Plus, we also can't coasters until they open which is also another anticipation thing along with waiting for the park to open. Just tghink about it.

The only better thing then riding millienum force front row, is to ride front row at night when its pitch black. So as your going down the track all you see is the lights, with no track below you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

------------------
Cedar Point WHAT!!!

Just becuase there isn't enough light for you to easily see the track doesn't mean it disapears. Now if you said that about Raptor or Wicked Twister, then it would be true. ;)

On an employee ride night they turned the lights off on Raptor for us. That was awesome.

Millennium may be 3 years old now and i love it to death but i have a feeling that the new ride will "blast" it out of proportion!

I've had front car many many times. I believe it's the only ride where front car gives you awesome floater air. I float out of my seat just halfway UP the third hill, let alone going down it. I also had front car for my 100th ride, red train! It was the very last ride of the night on 10/13/02. It was interesting exiting the train while it was parked before the unload station.

can you ask to ride the frount or do you have to offer bribes.

Thats funny ive never though of bribeing the ride hosts, but one year I went to the Point and for the last ride we decided Millenium Force. It was 1.5 hour wait and they where placing people and u couldn't wait for front. Well I got lucky and they stopped us just before we walked onto the station, so the next train we got front seat. Oh and it was a warm day so trains run faster, and in the dark everything seems faster so it was the coolest ride ever!

Millennium Force allows people to choose either front or back seats. The problem is when the coaster is getting close for the night, you don't want a line in either the front or the back. Just think about what would happen if the front line still had a 30 minute wait after the line cleared. The ride hosts want to get out of work sooner, and closing the front and back lines is the best option for them.

I rode MF 4 times in the front seat in 2002, but only waited once. I waited the first time, but the next two times I jumped at the chance when there was a single rider in the front seat, the last time I was the first person in the station for the last ride of the season.

to be completly honest. I hate the front seat on MF. Yes, MF is my favforite coaster, and yes i did ride in the front seat my very first time on opening day of MF's debut year, but 93 mph wind in my eyes was the least bit comforting. I like the very last seat the best. sit chill, relax, and most imporantly.. DON'T HOLD ON! what a rush!

If you build it, they will come!

I dont know about all you guys but I think the back is the best! When riding in the front you are already half way down the hill when you start picking up speed. I have riddin in both front and back and have confidence in that the back is the best and anyway-why wait 15 extra minutes for a ride that is not as good

-Mike

if you dont like wind, bugs and piercing rain in your face....you might want to go find the tea cups..

MF at night is awesome!!!!! I rode it at nite twice in 2002. On the last day I went, I was one of the last riders. It was great!

I like both the front seat and the back. Some people think that the back is better, because you are pulled over the hill. But in the front you are push down the hill by the other 7 cars, which will still put you back in your seat. Either way you actually get the same effect, though the back seat is a rougher ride. It depends on the person to which seat they like best.

Well TigerKiger, MF has 9 cars. Just to let you know. I personaly love the back seat. Test riding all summer we had to sit in the front. So I got my fare share of front seat rides. An August ride at night in the back seat is the best!!

Yes i'm a Black Bear and of all people you should know who I am. Christoff! Remember that. And yes MF has 9 cars per train. I mistakenly put 7 instead of 8 ,when talking about all but one seat. You didn't answer about the CP job though?

What exactly do you mean by "black bear?" I dont know about the CP job. Nobody responds in this topic anymore. Why? MF is still a thrilling ride and the front seat is still my fav place in the world. What do you think?
