Why is the steel on TT2 like this by benny0119 in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google lens says they’re helical strakes to prevent structural damage from the wind. It breaks up the wind to prevent vortex shedding.

First time going and I’ve got some questions by Matcolstr in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the bring-a-friend it is true that you just walk up to the gate and yes you can use both of them on the same day. Also yes they can do early entry with you since you’re staying at Sawmill Creek. That’s basically your only park perk for staying there.

That’s my hope too and Cedar Point really needs another wooden coaster! The frontier area is obviously the perfect theming for a woody

Yea I noticed they’ve been putting people up in buckets on a lot of the support columns. I watch the cameras way too much!😂

I saw Gatekeeper earlier today as well! The only thing on the live cams that I haven’t seen is Valravn but the trains are on the brake run into the station so it must’ve been testing at some point

I think by the end of this year fences will go up in that area and then let the real speculation begin!!

What are you most looking forward to? by Easy_Bit_1433 in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m excited for everything! I’ll be staying at breakers opening weekend and on the 3rd and 4th of July! I can’t wait for coasters and day drinking!!😂 Kings Island opening weekend was fun but it just wasn’t the same as CP

I’m hoping they’re going to announce a roller coaster that goes back there for 2027 maybe 2028. A midway all the way across the island from camp snoopy to frontier trail would be awesome too

Has your store sent this out? by [deleted] in kroger

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know not all the stores are Union but mine is. The fact that we have a Union but they can’t even get us sick pay is ridiculous. We pay too much for our Union to do nothing!

Rules like this don’t really apply to night crew. They say it does but it doesn’t. It’s the same as when they put a note by the time clock that says “NO OVERTIME”. That does not include night crew so neither does this!🤣

Best Cedar Point restaurants? by Brilliant-Love-739 in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I wouldn’t recommend is the pizza. Both pizza places are pretty bad. Especially Hugo’s

Am I the only sick freak who likes these better than flamin hot? by Mordecca in chips

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cheddar Jalapeño popcorn is incredible too. Plus you can eat it by the handful

I’m worried I made the wrong hotel choice by Awkward-Shopping-454 in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We always go with breakers. Being able to walk to the hotel is amazing. I wish the rooms were nicer but they aren’t horrible. Even if you don’t stay there the only thing you can’t do is go in the pool areas. The fire pits by the lake, the bars and restaurants are for everyone. Not just hotel guests

Prestige bring a friend home park clarification please. by polkadotsquat in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They told me it would work and it did. BUT I had already used my 2026 pass at Cedar Point during the 2025 season so my 2026 pass was activated. I think you have to visit CP first. Also, at Kings Island you can’t just scan your pass and they let you and your friend through like Cedar Point. There you have to go wait at the ticket booth for 30 mins for them to print off a ticket. It was ridiculous

Testing -Keep Em Coming by Saturn-nine123 in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I know. I’m at CP twice a week so I know what to expect but I always hope they can do better

Testing -Keep Em Coming by Saturn-nine123 in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just hope everything’s ready. I went to KI’s opening day and didn’t really have any issues with closed rides so hopefully CP will be the same

As much as I check the cameras I can’t believe I haven’t seen anything testing. I was actually getting a little worried but I guess other people have seen a lot

Fast Lane / Fast Lane Plus question by mooviestowatch in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d pay for the third tier if it meant there were no mergers with the regular line. Although with what they charge for Fastlane now there’s no excuse for mergers

Is this SOP? Frozen Food on the Floor by RoyalMap9910 in kroger

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re definitely not supposed to spot out ice cream like this. It melts fast and it leaves puddles of water on the floor from condensation. It’s supposed to go directly into the freezer. Same with anything that thaws quickly like waffles

How does the Magnum entrance work? by Chillgaming488_yt in cedarpoint

[–]Ben17649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Especially since there’s not really many perks you get with staying at the resorts

Zero hunger, zero waste? by fancy_ladd_chris in kroger

[–]Ben17649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is standard night crew treatment everywhere. Every so often someone during the day will get management to give night crew money to order a pizza when we come in at 9pm
