pashacar Posted October 11, 2009 Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 Odd that you have to buy in advance and that there's no mention of verification of Firefighter of Police IDs. Also weird that it's only for those two days. . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Too bad it's only going to be 48 for the high and rainning Friday night, the park will probably close early unless the forecast improves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThemeParkRider Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Interesting idea, but I really dont understand what the point is when there isn't and ID check. Then, couldn't anyone just pose as a fireman to get in the park? Or did I miss something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted October 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 Anyone could, and I don't think the park really minds if they do. This is being advertised to the first responders, but just like last week's $15 ticket deal, anyone is welcome to share it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Too bad it's only going to be 48 for the high and rainning Friday night, the park will probably close early unless the forecast improves. Sounds miserable, I can deal with the cold or light rain but not the cold and rain. Hopefully the forecast will change or they will be wrong just like this past Friday when it was supposd to be in the mid 60's and thunderstorm/rain all day and night and it didn't rain once and it was 73 out when I got to my car in the lot around 11:20 after the park closed.

The Master Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 (edited) The weather forecast this weekend is looking bleak with two nor-easters hitting the area. The event will probably be cancelled due to our usual crappy Mid-Atlantic weather. Hopefully the weekend after this one will be better.

ThemeParkRider Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 I heard that too! Doesn't look to good for GA... So I should avoid it this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
