    If you love rollercoasters but hate the huge wait times at other parks, this is perfect. You can easily ride every coaster in the park in a day--no wait was over 15 minutes.

    The turnover between rides is too long. Other theme parks move faster and conduct business in a more professional atmosphere. Second six flags trip in a month and they operate the same. SLOW!!!

    The Jokers Jinx will snap your neck and the Apocalypse will cause your glasses, hat, wig, etc. to fly off your head. My favorite coasters are between the Mind Eraser and the Wild One.

    It's a great place to chill out it's usually Shady somewhere in that area so if it's a hot day it's a good place to catch some shade and watch people walk by

    They were awesome to us. We lost a wallet (fell off a ride) and they found it within a few hours! Got stuck on the Roar, but a minor inconvenience for a great day.

    A solid regional theme park, it's good for what it is. you may as well get the season pass if you are coming back a second time. Food lines are always slow, just be ready for that.

    Batwing is a pleasant surprise! - Doesn't look like much until you start off laying on your back and then are suddenly flipped on your stomach as you fly through the air. - Best ride there!

    You can reenter from the parking lot as often as you like, so load up a cooler full of sandwiches and beverages.

    6:55 for turn over time for the batwing. Rediculous wait for no one at the park. The staff really needs to monitor turn over time for rides if they want to keep customers happy. Kings dominion better

    Get online and pre-order your food and drink purchases. Saves time and money - esp. the 2010 souvenir drink with refills 3 pack. Regularly $12.99 each, 3 pack is less than $30.

    Did you know? Roller coasters have no engines or other means of acceleration – they are powered entirely by the conversion of potential energy into kinetic energy, basic principles of physics. Read more
