Extreme crowd pleaser!

A little aside here... People get insane on the platform even after a three hour wait. What's even more amazing is seeing full trains with 72 hands in the air. I guess it's the smooth factor; People feel safe in these trains.

Think late night Magnum platform, make it 10 a.m., then multiply by ten. That's your MF enthusiasm.

Jeff, if you see me on any coaster you will see my arms straight up in the air. I dont care if its smooth,rough, or violent. Thats probably why I have minor back problems but oh well! When I am riding a scream machine I just dont care.
Wow, thats great....So, what does the ride look like at night...From previous reports from other people they say it looks awesome?
Chitown, you and me all the way.
Do the hands go down when entering the tunnels?? Are they headchoppers or what?

When I rode, I don't think that too many people put their hands down when getting to the tunnel. I was sitting pretty much in the middle and, obviously, could not see the back half of the train. Your hands get nowhere close to the tip of the tunnel. While standing in line, I got a good enough glimpse of the two tunnels and people riding through them to make up my mind that it was hands up from the bottom of the lift hill to the unloading station!
Wow I wish people were insane like that at SFO, I was the only one basically. That always gets you pumped up more. I try to do it for the others. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome back Millennium Force riders...We all want to know how was your RIDE!!!!!
I did not go on it myself, but I did make a few observations...

1.People on the trains as they enter the station scream and clap as loud as possible, but they walk down the exit ramp with extremely bizzar blank faces (no smiles, no frowns) I am still stitting here hours later trying to figure this strange occurance out.
2. From people I've talked to in some of the lines on other rides who have rode, it's the same story...speed, speed, and more speed, and nothing more. Is there anything else that is good about this ride?

3. As I predicted, FT looks bad, and the charm of it is completely gone.

4. Uncertain about GW in it's new location. Give me more time on this one.

5. MF is great to photograph, blew a 24 exp roll on it alone today.

Well you know, first comes the denial of the fact your not on the ride anymore. After that acceptance, etc. You just saw the folks dealing with not being on it and seeing the three hour lines!

I think FT is fine as it is. Not sure what charm was lost. What feels strange about it is how it makes that entire part of CP feel almost as if its new. But its a matter of personal perspective I guess.

I think the GW is in a great location, and it seems to fit better there.

All in all, MF seems to have.....brought balance to the force?

Nothing to do with anything, but did anyone else get right on that turn on Thunder Canyon the SECOND the MF train went over the first overbank? That happenned to us, and it startled us, but was sweet!
I did my best cheering, I always LOVE helping put the enthusiasim in the word enthusiast.
