gasmspiritblue Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I always loved this coaster in the front because you feel free but in the back you whip down the hill!!!! I diddn't go on it this year thought because it always had a long line, longer than Nitros ans my ears are really sensitive to the air pressure beeing released.

gasmspiritblue Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 B:TR will be 20 years old in 2013. I can't believe its been this long! Almost as old as my Scream Machine!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batmanrobinchiller Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 That's my baby. Of all the rides I worked while at Six Flags (and let me tell you, it's got to the point over 2 and a half years where it's easier for me to tell you what I DIDN'T work), being the lead of Batman was the most fun I ever had. Ever. Hopefully, I'm chosen ride assistant for Batman this up coming year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargazer Alchemist Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 Hopefully, I'm chosen ride assistant for Batman this up coming year! Good luck!!!! Treat the Bat right, and she'll do the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Master Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 I still wonder why the park doesn't fix the pin holes in the station's roof? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargazer Alchemist Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Thanks man! I look forward to this! Oh, a challenge for ya. When I was lead in 07, my crew and I used to hit around 850-900 (sometimes more! 1K is our record) an hour. I don't know if you guys had a ton of rule changed since then (most likely) but see how much you can get (being safe of course) If you have any questions about the Bat, hit me up via PM.

Oh this is my first year as ride assistant! I'm still a rookie, but I'll try to meet your expectations safely, or beat them, which ever comes first .

CycloneMan Posted January 25, 2012 Report Share Posted January 25, 2012 Working at the park was a lot of fun. I do miss it quite often. But I prefer the park I work at now. Side note, Batman the Ride was my first ever roller coaster with inversions when I was 8 years old =) "When the floor goes down, don't you frown.

I was at the park last year working in the food department. To be honest, it was grueling. I know working as a ride attendant is hard, but I will strive to do what I love best.

batmanrobinchiller Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 I was looking at old photos and I noticed a little shed at the end of the exit of B:TR. Did B:TR ever have a photo booth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarioSonic94 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 (edited) The Great Ohio Coaster Club just posted this to Facebook from No Coaster Con Six Flags Great America just announced Batman the Ride will be running backwards for a limited time in 2013. Not sure if this is unique or the set up for a bad idea. Edited January 23, 2013 by MarioSonic94 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29yrswithaGApass Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 The sign on the left was auctioned off at Winter Adventure this past Saturday for around $300! If the winner of the auction happens to read these forums and would like an unwatermarked version of the photo below to go with their new sign just let me know.
