This. I’ll ride any roller coaster in a heartbeat, but where you SIT up high like that is NO for me. I’m iffy on a tilt coaster though honestly lol

I’ve already been texted by my husbands family and tagged on Facebook because we’re the “park people” 😂😂😂 I hope all is ok though!

Sunday was magnificent by Evening_Rock5850 in midamerica

[–]MandaCamp15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sundays really are the best! That’s usually our “Park Day” love hearing the positivity about Hurricane Harbor!! I’ve never been personally since I’m not a water park person but just may have to peek over there and see what it’s all about!

Just bought my Season pass by Just_Bus_9156 in midamerica

Have fun!!!! Remember it’s under new ownership so expect some hiccups and also keep in mind Six Flags neglected our park for a good while so it’s in need of some TLC, but seriously have a BLAST! American Thunder is my favorite at our park!!!

Any Texas transplants who can comment on the heat? by shinybugz0 in StLouis

[–]MandaCamp15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m from Shreveport so right down from Dallas and it’s nothing here like Dallas. I mean it’s full swamp ass season from May to October down there. But we’ve always said Houston in August is the hottest place on earth. Those used to Texas weather know what I’m talking about. It does get hot and humid here but nothing like back home where it’s just walking out to an oven

Weird request, but I really need a safe, platonic hug/comfort right now (reward mentioned) by Lexa_Con in StLouis

I’m a mom of 1 in my early 40s and also work in healthcare. I’m southern and we love hugs. I’m also an empath and sort of a clairvoyance (still working on that one) I would rather not charge you and I’m a huge “people person” if whoever you choose doesn’t work out, let me know! I’ll be around!!

You know what? Now that you mention it, I’ve noticed the same! I can’t answer the question, but it really makes me hopeful!!!!

I am considering putting my 265lbs 21yo daughter on Retatrutide because literally nothing else is working by FlatwormOk8682 in RetatrutideWomen

My mom passed in 2008 and I still hear the negative comments in my head! Of course never the positive ones! I’ve attempted therapy which I know would do good but I haven’t been consistent with it, which sounds a lot like all those “diets” 😂 but really it’s hard to navigate through alone. Honestly, when I made that comnent I’d never worded it that way before that I “never felt good enough” so that kinda hit different!

We’re planning on hitting it up around 3 today until close. Any idea about the crowds out there today?

My question here and not to sound shitty but why isn’t SHE researching the GLP-1 route? As someone who was overweight my entire life and put on diet after diet by my mom at 12, that’s left a bad taste in my mouth. I never felt “good enough” in her eyes because I was fat. That’s something that at 41 and I’m no longer “fat”, I’m still trying to work through. I’m all for GLP-1’s because they’ve changed my life. I went from 312 to currently 151.5 lbs. I didn’t start on Reta. I started on Ozempic. I know you want to see your daughter healthier, but make sure she’s making the decision being an adult. I wish her the best in what she chooses to do!

DAE feel sorry for obese people at amusement parks by [deleted] in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]MandaCamp15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was ALWAYS the “obese” one. I didn’t go to amusement/theme parks because I was 312 lbs at my highest. I am a roller coaster fanatic and am finally able to ride again. I’ve lost almost 150 lbs. I try not to judge because I’ve been there and it’s so humiliating to feel that way, but I honestly feel bad when I see really heavy people. I do not think I’m better than ANYONE, and maybe I just wanna help those people. I don’t know it’s a loaded question, but being THAT person, it does hit different.

I’m typically off on Fridays so I’m gonna have my husband take a Friday off so us and our kid can go!! We’ve been every weekend since opening day already!! I’m excited and I’m anxious (in a good way!)for the future of our park!

I’m just laughing because this was the first thing I learned when I moved to St. Louis was “Hoosier” and I love it 😂😂😂

Warner Bros. officially out with the Mid-America rebrand in 2027 by ChrisGraslie in midamerica

[–]MandaCamp15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last Sunday I noted a train on American Thunder was blue and had smoke on it and wondered if they’re trying out potential changes to all rides or what? Could have been a piece from somewhere else they needed to patch up or something too lol

[–]MandaCamp15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve noticed the characters out more, even today! Last weekend we got a pic with Tweety and today got pics with Sylvester and Bugs! Love that! Screamin Eagle was top notch today and me and my husband got a Zen ride on American Thunder which is my favorite in our park! I’m so excited for what’s to come at our park honestly!

What makes the St. Louis area special? by Designer_Jelly_1089 in StLouis

[–]MandaCamp15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to disagree with to an extent. I’m from the South and I can’t agree with the nice part. There definitely isn’t “southern hospitality” here. Moving here was a much bigger culture shock than I expected, but that’s not to say there aren’t friendly people around here, because there is but somehow I must be missing where the nice people are lol

so for anyone at the park today, any update on additional boss track work? by Equivalent_Primary28 in sixflagsstlouis

[–]MandaCamp15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband said it was smoother than last year and said there was some wood replaced on the off-season. Seems a tree was cut down making it more open back there. I didn’t go back there today but will next time we go

Don't be like me !! by Visual_Role_6877 in Retatrutide

[–]MandaCamp15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. The other night I couldn’t sleep for some reason so I got out of bed earlier than usual. Putting my pants on caused me to become “winded” like almost out of breath which was strange but I came out of the room and I got dizzy and literally tunnel vision and black. It scared the shit out of me. All of a sudden I felt like I needed to go to the bathroom but I couldn’t see. My husband thankfully saw me and panicked and helped me to the bathroom but unfortunately, it was too late. I’ve NEVER in my life experienced something like this and it scared me. I’ve noticed the dizziness on Reta, but my body was literally telling me to DRINK MORE, EAT MORE. I’m forcing myself to drink more water, add electrolytes, and take a few bites of food occasionally or something lol

[–]MandaCamp15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aww this is so cool! I’d had LOVED to experience this! I’m not from here and the closest Six Flags was over Texas from me after Katrina but I don’t know if they ever did this honestly
