CoasterMania! 2009

^ I was thinking the same thing. While I enjoy TTD, I don't think it is worth a 1 hour wait. Since it is often way longer than that, I generally skip it.

If Wings VS Pens goes to game 5, who wants to party at Game Day Grille?

I was thinking the same thing. And by the same thing, I mean completely different. If the Cavs win tonight, game 6 will be Saturday at 8:30.

^ CoasterMania is not this weekend guys. It is the following one.

Wow, I need to get a calender.

Personally my guess is that since its two days I expect not everyone will be going to every ERT session. Some people will skip Friday night, of those that go some are going to be too tired/not wake up for Saturday morning, and some are going to leave early and miss Saturday night.

^There will of course be the people who do all 3 ERT sessions and the Platinum Pass hour Fri, Sat and Sun morning. Those people will most likely be zombies by Saturday night and sleep most of the day Sunday. Or at the very least, get very little done at work on Monday. ;)

^And there will be smart people who do exactly what you are saying but then go to Soak City in the afternoon on Saturday and get a great nap and not be zombies.

Just 4 days left till CM. I am starting to get excited.

It looks like the weather just may cooperate with us. Now if they can get MF running it will be perfect.

Looks like they're at least testing trains. This is shaping up to be glorious.


I call Cedar Point my home park even though I live in the Chicago Suburbs.

I just saw that. Now I am really getting PUMPED

I am glad they got millie up and running. Cedar Point did a great job of making this happen quickly.

I just booked a campsite Friday & Saturday nights. I had trouble justifying $100 or more for 4 hours of sleep. We are just going do sleeping bags in the back of the van. I know that we could have done this in a WalMart parking lot, but I figured I would do you all a favor and grab a shower before the Saturday ERT :)

That's hard core Dave.


I'm Going to Go to KennyWood Friday Day and then Driving up for the Night ERT Coaster Mania.. So this will be a test to see if I can Wake up for the Morning ERT! Be seems a nap in the middle of the Day is going to be a must.. Side note I got 3 nights at a hotel near the park for 160.. No it's not 5 star but it's a bed.


No I don't have a kid, but I still want to ride!

Oh, I know you can get some cheaper rates, but I wouldn't stay there. We will be fine on an air mattress in the back of the van for $23 a night at the campground.

I'll be there, Friday and Saturday morning! Whooohooo!


Happy 20th Anniversary Magnum XL-200. The Original Hypercoaster.

Does anyone know when the parking lot will open Sat. morning?


My name is Mike, and I'm a coasterholic.

Probably 5:00 or 5:30am.

My question is will they have us park in the main lot, or in the marina lot since that entrance is right next to Millie. I figure that they will tell us where to go when we get to the gate at OMG early Saturday morning.
