Going to Great Adventure- Questions

[sxemike1215]

I'm going to Great Adventure with a bunch of my friends for one of their birthdays on the 22nd and I have a couple of questions.

1. This one is really stupid but my friend wants me to ask it, if you have diabetes does your party get to cut the queue?

2. Which coaster should we go on first I was thinking Superman: Ultimate Flight because that line gets really long.

3. Does the food there cost a lot or should I just eat a lot before I go and just get drinks while in the park?

4. Does the crowd get massive on Saturdays in September or no because of work and everyone waiting for Fright Fest?

Answers would be very appreciated.

EDIT: By the way this will be my first time EVER riding a 'big boy' coaster and I want to get a good impression of them so I'll get more into them.

1. I think that there is some type of condition you have to have to pass the line, but i dont think it's diabetes.

2. Kingda Ka

3. For one person I would bring about $40 but if you buy soveniours it will not cover, so bring a little extra.

4. I went there last saturday and there was nobody, usualy the park should be empty and if you go next staurday than im 90% sure that there will not be many people. (Im gonig again that day :p)

1. I don't believe diabetes will get you to the front.:p

2.Kingda Ka, El Toro and Superman, since they are all on the same side of the park. I don't believe The Chiller will be open, so I would stick with those three to start.

3.The food and drinks are very expensive, so eat a big breakfast. ...and hope for the best with drinks.;)

4.I usually have a rule about not going to parks on Saturdays, so I can't really help you there. ...but you might be alright since you're between summer and Fright Fest.

Thanks guys, this will really help. I have another question though does bringing a Coke can on Saturdays get you $10 off or $20?

Well I already finished my day at Great Adventure yesterday but it was cut short sadly. Here's how it went. First we went to The Runaway Train and than we ate in the restaurant next to it. $15.53 for chicken fingers, potato wedges, a pickle, and a medium drink! At Wendy's it's only like $3.00. Then we headed to best ride ever . . . Tango! Then we went to El Toro, the first drop is insane. Then to Medusa it was sweet, really smooth and the zero-g roll and cobra roll were well worth the wait. Then we went across the park to Skull Mountain. Even the 15 minute wait wasn't worth it I definitely would have rather got a spot on Nitro but didn't get on by the time we left. Then we went to Batman, it's beastly the zero-g roll is the best. Then we headed to the Boardwalk to Superman which I think wasn't worth it, way to short and we waited an hour when we could have went back to El Toro.

Hopefully my next visit is going to be on a Monday Morning so it's deserted but now I think it's closed so maybe next year. I have some questions about different parks too. Is driving and paying to go to Hershey Park or Dorney Park from where Great Adventure is worth it? And by worth it I mean going on at least 5 roller coasters without hour waits.
