How come no matter when I go to a park, I have never seen a line over 1.5 hours? (knock on wood ;))I unknowingly went to Magic Mountain on some African American holiday, and the park was literally wall to wall people. Everywhere you walked you bumped into someone, throughout the entire park. It was like a crowded subway in DC or New York. The parking lot and gravel area were closed, we had to park down the hill at some lot I've never seen before. It was an absolute disaster, crowd wise.
The longest line there that day? Riddler's at one hour and 20 minutes.
Once I went to Disneyland on the 4th of July, a day when they were going to have some spectacular fireworks show. Again, the situation was the same, extremely, extremely crowded. Space Mountain only had a one hour fifteen minute line. Indiana Jones, a ride which, at the time, usually commanded a one hour line on uncrowded days, was only an hour and a half.
Could it be that people like to stretch the truth? I don't know, I just really don't buy 3.5 - 4 hour lines. I don't care how crowded the park was, because I was at two of the most infamous parks for crowds, on two of the worst possible days, and I never saw more than a 1.5 hour line.
*phew* Okay, I'll shut up.
The longest line I've been in was 1.5 hours for Goliath, a week after it opened.
