BreannaMarch 12, 2010Try to go during the week before school ends for summer break. You also have to ride Raging Bull, best ride they have.
Sally HudsonJune 24, 2013AWESOME....especially the Grand Finale of the dancing,singing and fireworks!
Go during the week (Tues and Wed are the best) if you don't want to wait in long lines.
Christopher HoustonJune 10, 2013It was way too commercial (advertisements everywhere!!) and I felt like the park looked old and outdated. I had a much better experience at Busch Gardens and Islands of Adventure in Florida.
Pay with your Discover credit card and save 5% all over the park!
Matt BoucherAugust 13, 2010The BBQ place in the main food court is awesome! Ya get a ton of food for what you spend
Bring your own food and drink or prepare to spend a small fortune
Get a cowbell and cowboy hat because you're coming on the C.O.W. Parade!
Do NOT forget your Season Pass at home... A replacement costs $15.
Debbie StrobelJuly 18, 20212021. At least 6 rides we went to were closed for the season. Could have been many more but ones we wouldn’t be interested in.
Wael JJuly 3, 2015Well,, the flash pass is only for extreme people with extreme money.. If you're normal then then don't take it.. #ripoff
Amari GordonAugust 5, 2018Too EXPENSIVE for a mediocre experience. $26 just for parking in their lot is ridiculous when they are charging you over $70 to get inside this crappy place.
Brace ClementSeptember 4, 2010The V2 was nuts! Save that ride for last though, because the rest of the rides won't compare.
