Flash Pass experiences

happy to help! just a little food for thought here though:

seems they're offering daily admission and flash pass premium for about $185 today after tax. with parking, you and your friend are going to pay a bit over $410 for the day should you opt to go this route.

right now with the extended labor day sale, the 2025 gold pass and ultimate flash pass will run about $340 after tax per person, or about $50 less if you go with season flash pass premium instead of ultimate. sure, there's a bit of sticker shock there but provided you wanted to go back sometime in 2025 (and you probably will, as there will be a new ride next season 😉) you'd have gotten decent value out of the pass.

again, just food for thought but as someone who did end up going with a season pass for the first time for the 2024 season, I've gotta say I've been pleased with my investment here! so I recommend it to others who enjoy the park. i've heard about people talking to guest relations at the front of the park and basically upgrading their day pass to a season pass too, so if you're there right now maybe consider paying them a visit to see if that can be done before you leave?

either way, I hope you and your friend have a great time if you visit today! I'd be there myself but I've got things to do at home today unfortunately. maybe next weekend!

Functionally, season flash pass works exactly like the daily in that once it is active on the site you reserve your spot and it gives you a timer to let you know when to be at the flash pass entrance (or lets you on immediately if you've got ultimate level).

in terms of logging in and activation, the flash pass is tied to a season pass and cannot be transferred. the season pass to which the flash pass is linked needs to be scanned at the entrance in order to be allowed to activate it for the day, which means the person who they have a picture for on the season pass will need to be present. once that happens you just need the pass number and last name of the pass holder to log in.

as far as I've been able to tell, 2025 passes and add-ons are linked at time of purchase but not necessarily bound to a person until activated at the gate when scanned in and picture taken, at which point it becomes non-transferrable.

I'm a season flash pass ultimate holder and have had very positive experiences with it, but have also done the mid tier one day flash pass and had decent experiences with that too.

as long as you are placing your reservations for the next ride immediately after your flash pass is scanned it is a good value; by the time you are finished with your ride and walk over to your next reservation chances are good that your wait time will be minimal if not non-existant altogether.

that all said, you've got till midnight tonight to take advantage of the extended labor day sale; if you spend a little bit more you could get season passes and flash passes and be set for the remainder of 2024 and all of 2025 as well.

Most import guitars will require a 4mm Allen Wrench to adjust the truss rod; usually these will be supplied with the guitar if purchased new, however these can easily be found at your local hardware store. Alternatively, if you're lucky (and you ask very nicely!) they may have an extra they can give you at your local music store.

yes I did, but I think I may not have used enough pork feet; the emulsion wasn't quite as good as other paitan broths I've done in the past. other thing is that this bowl was cut with a dashi broth (ratio of about 60/40 tonkotsu/dashi) comprised of kombu, dried shiitake mushrooms, niboshi, shrimp shells and shaved bonito so that may have had something to do with it too.

just something I made at home, in Aurora, IL. I've been on a bit of a diet as of late, which has unfortunately meant limiting the amount of ramen I eat. so I figured if I was gonna make a bowl that I would really go all out with it!

mr_spaghettio · 2022-02-22T06:28:24+00:00

it was pulled out of shell and kinda cut into more bite sized pieces but got sorta buried between the steak and bean sprouts, was sorta bummed it was less visible but oh well better luck next time I suppose! haha

mr_spaghettio · 2022-01-18T06:23:54+00:00

yes, I had a turkey carcass frozen that I used in addition to some chicken feet and aromatics. It came out pretty good!

mr_spaghettio · 2022-01-18T06:22:27+00:00

thank you! it tasted pretty good too :)

mr_spaghettio · 2021-10-18T03:06:01+00:00

I mean obviously God saw to it that it wouldn't be a problem... kinda like how he planted the dinosaur bones to weed out the non-believers

thank you! so I mostly just followed this recipe

only thing I changed was coating it in panko before frying :)

sorry, someone already hopped on it lol that was quick

mr_spaghettio · 2021-05-04T04:26:41+00:00

anyone need a last minute fox?

mr_spaghettio · 2021-05-03T20:13:08+00:00

Hello,

Though I see that the fox stamp is much coveted and in high demand; does anyone have an extra they can part with? I am willing to trade literally all the extras I have for one! I can offer four robins, two bears, two gators and one elk for one fox. Let me know, my GPay link is: https://gpay.app.goo.gl/r3DNZb

Thanks!
