Great Adventure 10/11/10

Yeah, Apollo rocks. I've loved that one since the first time I rode it. I didn't understand Raging Bull the first time I rode it, but then I went back and loved that one, too.

Weird, I kinda had the opposite response: I didn't get the Apollo hype at first, and Nitro was amazing. I've since gotten Apollo--years later I had an out-of-seat (damn close to an out-of-train entirely) experience in the back seat; and my last ride on Nitro was better than average, but far short of stellar.

Almost leaving the train was the reason I came to understand Raging Bull. B&M loopers are mostly forceless-ish, but those older hypers are really intense.

I always found Nitro to be a better ride in the back of the train with much more airtime. I like the view in the front row but I am not willing to wait an extra 5+ trains for the front.

It's too bad it was so crowded on Sunday, I figured with it being a school night for some kids the crowds would die down at night especially with the park being open until 11 but it sounds like it was the opposite.
