What do you do on a rainy day at the point?

This is a no brainer. I go to TGIF or Famous Daves and park myself at the bar until it stops raining. (not recommended for guests under 21).

Ditto....or go back to my room, and play Pokerstars

All the coasters with the exception of TTD USED to run in
the rain. Is that not the case anymore?

When it rain's, I usually go to the arcade, or eat.. because I'm usually hungry, but take no time to fill up my stomach because I want to get everything in that I can. The main arcade on the midway with the "Kiddie Kingdom" is definately the best one, I think one year I got 700 tickets from one machine, and of course all the other tickets.


Cedar Point is undoubtedly amazing.

Well you used to go on rides... but ohh wait lets change the policy to close down everything before it even starts raining. Even rides that do not use friction brakes. Either way rain sucks and it never used to.

What did you get with your 700 tickets? A large Cedar Point pen?

Well, at least for now, it looks like everyone at CP this weekend should have a "rain plan". Not the nicest weather on Sunday.


Promoter of fog.

Cry!!!

Once time we had just been seated at Midway Market when it started to pour. You can imagine the chaos that ensued when everybody ran in to escape the rain and then decided to eat. There were 5 or 6 people deep stacked up across every food station.

The arcade gets it bad when it rains, as well as any shop or building with an overhang!

Some of the best evenings I've ever had at the Point were after an all day rain. It cleared up, the park was slow because nobody came anyway, and the riding was great. Perfect if you're close or have multple days.

Does maxair or skyhawk run in the rain??

I know Skyhawk ran in 2006 in a light rain. I don't remember for last year though. I don't know why they wouldn't.

See, this is what's wrong with Cedar Fair management. They should have realized months ago that the third and fourth weeks of April were going to be gorgeous, and that the second week of May was going to have occasional rain. Then they could have adjusted their operating calendar accordingly.

Not true! In the annals of Federation history, there are at least four instances of junior grade officers transporting into a hazardous environment and not getting eaten by a Yeti-ish primate or turned into a salt crystal by a silicon-based alien intelligence.

So it could happen...

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Actually with my tickets, I bought a neon light. Looks pretty cool when the lights are turned off.
