Anyone ever head up the lift on Apollo's Chariot while the fireworks have taken place? Or better yet ─ during the grand finale? I have. It's pretty cool. Best view in the park for this.
Twice
Other moments:
First ride on Nitro: Getting the butterflies in my stomach over the first drop was one of the freakiest moments for me pre-enthusiast days, it's a shame that I've lost that sensation since then.
Getting pelted with pocket change on Apollos Chariot. Some guy who was sitting front row had his wallet let loose or something, nothing like hearing loud clinking noises all around you and then getting smashed in the face with what you believe is a quarter.
Almost getting hit in the face with a cell phone queuing in line for El Toro.
Getting that elevator ride up to the top of Griffon for the coaster tour at BGW.
The ludicrous amount of airtime that Phoenix had after assuming it was a disappointment. I rode it around noon time in the 1st row, and didn't really get all that much action. After texting a friend and complaining about it he told me to wait until later and then ride in the back and then redo the front row. Never experienced such a drastic change for a roller coaster over the course of a day, it basically went from "okay this isn't bad, but not what it's cracked up to be" to "Laughing my **** ass off due to just how much fun it is."
Obligatory "**** **** **** **** ****" moment on the first air time hill on Skyrush, and then feeling the pain in my thighs set in while waiting for the next train to dispatch.
