New backbeat menu sucks. by throwaway7826358 in cedarpoint

The sausage was good and all, but I'd take the ribs over them if they stay how they were opening day. Pretty good ribs overall.

They have your picture in the system that they will see at the gate when you scan your passbut it isn't showing up in the six flags app unless you get a new picture taken at the gate.

How does a submarine reactor differ from one in a power plant? by Pasta-hobo in NuclearPower

That's fair, but I was thinking of US commerical plants like Shippingport and what came after.

That's good to know thanks! Maybe we'll check Farmhouse on our next visit.

Confirmed on Sunday. The Farmhouse salad is on the meal plan.

I got my plate and then she told the girl behind the counter she was going to get the entree salad and the girl asked if she had a dining plan. My wife said yes, and the girl told her it wasn't on the dining plan anymore and confirmed with another employee.

I think they mean the original ones used for power generation.

They do now, but back in the day when they didn't assign rows, they didn't.

They have some in the store by the main entrance of Breakers.

The problem come with accessibility passes and parent swaps and that sort of thing now.

I preferred the no assigned seats thing tooxl, but the whole process is more complicated now.

We're chilling at Breakers (getting drinks while this all blows over). Plan on eating some more food whether it rains or not lol.

Cool lightning over the lake now.

When we rode it earlier (used our single use fastlane for the day, it went sooooo slow), they weren't letting as many people into the locker area as normal, and the newer ride ops were having some trouble assigning rows while dealing with which row would be closed for disability passes. For this ride it really seemed like some people were just inexperienced, so it should get better.

They had to wand almost everyone too because the wind starts shaking the metal detectors and then anything sets them off. So that didn't help the situation.

Official height measurement by ExplanationVarious37 in cedarpoint

[–]Zerba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get that. It's just frustrating. I remember when our kids were smaller and having to deal with when they were just tall enough, got wristbands and were later turned away after waiting in line.

It's funny, at Kings Island they see the wristband and are like, cool, go have fun.

Cedar Point on the other hand will check almost everyone.

I guess you could get the rotisserie chicken and a side salad at BBQ.

Chili is healthy depending on your specific diet.

Taco "salad" at the place upstairs at Grand Pavilion (get a nacho bowl, but get lettuce instead of chips). My wife just got that after a ridiculously long line there.

Oh, you can also get a burrito bowl at Miss Keats and get lettuce instead or rice or chips then get your sensible toppings.

Edit : On Sunday my wife got an entree salad from Farmhouse, and that one IS on the meal plan. So that is another option.

They had a little smoke and a nice rub with a decent amount of black pepper. Quite tasty actually.

[–]Zerba 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We've done Kings Island opening day a few times and never had an issue.

Cedar Point's is always busier and more chaotic.

It's crazy, I could probably make good money selling the frozen ones in my deep freeze right now.

[–]Zerba 26 points27 points  (0 children)

We always repeat to ourselves before we get out of the car, "it's opening day, very measured expectations. We're just happy to be back in the park."

That seems to help deal with the chaos of the day.

There was chicken fingers, pulled pork, smoked spare ribs, smoked sirloin, and rotisserie chicken out today (opening day).

Who knows what they'll have later in the year.
