What not to miss at Hershey

Can't believe I didn't think of this before, but you gotta buy some Kettle Corn on your way out of the park.

You need to ride The Comet. It's the oldest woodie in the park but it'll give you enough airtime you feel you could stand.

Comet can be hit or miss it all depends on the trim on the turnaround above the station. If it's on you'll get a sluggish ride but if it's off you'll get a better ride.

I was totally blown away with Hershey on Saturday (June 9th). I'm in the middle of writing a trip report, but it ranks up there as one of my favorite parks now. I've never been one to like wooden coasters, but I loved all of theirs - especially Lightning Racer. Although the park looked and felt like it was going to burst at the seams from people, the queues were relatively non-existent.

Chocolate World was just eh. I wish they actually had the REAL factory tour still.

"You need to ride The Comet. It's the oldest woodie in the park but it'll give you enough airtime you feel you could stand."

What are you talking about? The thing doesn't give much air at all, unless of course the midcourse trim is off, and I don't think I've ridden the coaster with that off in years.

You want a killer pop of air? Ride Dorney's Thunderhawk in the "Schmeck" seat :)

Thanks for the tips everyone. I have taken some notes. We are leaving tonight, and will be at the park tommorow evening. Seriously can't wait.
