Yoshi Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Yeah the forecast does not look good. 20% chance of rain at 6, 50% chance at 7, 70% at 8 and 80% chance at 9. I'll wait until tomorrow afternoon and see if it updates. If it stays like that I'm probably not going to go to the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonlee Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I work 10 minutes from the park so i won't know until last minute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Master Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I noticed GADV is having more and more multi special events to keep the park more crowded whenever it's open, and it's getting worse every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoshi Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Hopefully next year if the park opens earlier next year they will spread out the events more so they don't all overlap like this weekend. The forecast got better so I'm still going to try to get to the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the park "more crowded" means higher profits and better business. In the end that translates into bigger and better capital investments. In the long run we win.

Yoshi Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I just got to the park now, they let in passholders early. There are some schools here but many are leaving. I went to Nitro first about a 10 minute wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdc12192 Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I'm just waiting for my friend to get here then I'll be heading in. Decided to go since weather is supposed to hold off until later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I noticed GADV is having more and more multi special events to keep the park more crowded whenever it's open, and it's getting worse every year. And attendance is not going up that significantly. With about 2.5 million guests a year, it is way off the 3-4 million they used to get years ago.

Yoshi Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 It looked like there were maybe 200 cars in the lot and at closing only 1 or 2 buses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boldikus Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 Hi guys! First post. Was stalking this forum/thread all week as I was highly anticipating CAD last night. Worked out great w/ the weather. Actually started raining just at 9:15 as we were walking out of the main gate. Crowds were really light and operations smooth and fast. Crowds so light at times it was eerie seeing it so empty yet open. Happy to get a few rides in on my faves and a first time ride on S:UF, as the line is always too long for me to be bothered to wait. Walked right on in front row. So fun. Glad I did it. Marathoned Nitro 5 times in a row right before closing, sat in last row the last three rides, including the last train of the night. Now only if they would do this event more often!El Toro 2xBizarro 3xSuperman 1xNitro 5x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlumeOp1974 Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 The park being empty on a Friday evening early in the season? Wow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
