CB event at SFGAm? - CoasterBuzz

Raptor Pilot...I don't know about that, there was a large group of us who rode S:UF14+times during the ERT last year. Heck if I remember right, elizabeth rode it 16 or 17 times....

One train of us even got to wait out a stoppage on the brake run. "How you guys doing?" "Just hanging out..."

I'd actually like to see ERT split between Deja Vu and Viper (with Raging Bull or Superman as a backup in case Deja Vu misbehaves). Maybe that way we actually have a chance of riding the darn thing.

I was lucky enough to get DejaVu on my one and only trip...considering it was only up for 4 hours and the wait was over 2, I considered myself rather lucky.

Frankly, ERT on Raging Bull wouldn't bother me in the least. That's the one coaster I found myself giggling on every single ride. The hubby and I used 3 of our fast passes just on RB.

I'd rather die living than live like I'm dead

Beat all of you...seen three rode three...and I was only at SFoG one day and SFMM for two...heck while at SFMM I actually got to ride Flashback...

George, sorry to hear about Flashback. ;)

Jeff, whatever you can arrange would be great.

ERT on V2 would get boring quick. I like ERT on RB and Superman, but I am not that big of a Viper fan, maby becuase the line for it is usually not much longer than 15 mins, unlike Deja Vu that can be as high as 3.5 hours. who knows we may not even get ERT on anything.

I don't know what I'd do if the ERT was on Batman. Such a great ride, easily the best inverter of them all in my opinion.

Viper sounds cool, this way my kids have something to ride. Not at the 54" height yet. :(

The Golden Rule - Try it once and if you don't like you don't have to go on again!

My condolences. I HAVE been on that ride. There are many coasters I'll jokingly say "rode once, got the credit", but in that case I REALLY mean it. I took such a nasty shot to the jaw on that ride, it wasn't funny.

If you can pull off May 22 and ERT on Deja Vu, I can vouch for three attendees right now. We'd probably come without DV, but I've missed it in 4 trips, and it's starting to gnaw at me...

To being an "us" for once - instead of a "them".

Ditto, Greg, but my comment was more awe of getting that rarely running added to my count than awe of it as a survivable coaster

Yep. We were in the group. We rode 9 times in a row, once in each row.

ERT on V2 would get boring quick.

Not for me. :)

I forgot about Deja Vu, since it was SBNO last year. An excellent ERT choice. Loved SFOG's.

i figure that it would not be a good ERT choice because of how simple a ride it is. Deja Vu is also a simple ride however it was only open about a third of the year and for those of us who only made it to SFGAm 1 time last year for the CB event we did not get to ride it. don't get me wrong V2 is an aweson ride but i dont think it is one i would like to ride over and over.

SFGAm, ERT, May... it's all good. I would have to agree that time on DV would be the best since I've seen that metal monstrosity twice, ridden 0. But no matter what, I gotta say:

Great job Jeff and SFGAm staff for making last year's event a real success. They really treated us like VIPs, and it made for a heck of a fun day.

Now I just gotta make sure I don't leave the sunroof open all day for the drive from MN to Chicago.

I don't know about you guys, but I'd be pretty disappointed with ERT on Deja Vu when there are lots of good coasters that would be fun to re-ride.

How about ERT on Deja VU and Raging Bull....I am sure that would make a lot of people very happy! Heck it would be even cool to have ERT on Whizzer even though that ride is usually a walk on a lot anyway. I liked the idea of ERT on Sprocket too. There are just so many good rides to choose from how can we choose just one ride for ERT?!!

Heck, no ERT is fine with me. Any old excuse to visit is fine.

dont expect a ert sessions at sfgam with rides on either side of the park (superman and raging bull) because the transit time between the rides takes too much time for a limited ert period.
