I took my brother and his friend to the park. We got there at about 7:15pm, and went to see how long the line was for Dungeon Drop. It was about an hour, so we checked on Serial Thriller, expecting it to be 2 hours. Boy, was I wrong.

Serial Thriller-Vekoma SLC-The line was only 20 minutes. While in line, i looked up at the sea serpent, and it looked just...awesome It was lit up with purple lights, but it got the light got dimmer and dimmer as it went up. It just looked great. At one time they had to send the teal train unloaded, but that was it for break downs. I got on the red train, 4th row. Let me say that this ride is AWESOME! yes, ive been on it before, but it has never been so smooth and fast. The only rough part was on the Sea Serpent inversion. The rest was almost B&M smooth. I give it a 8.5 of 10.

After we got off, my brother wanted to go home. He was going to spend the night at his friends house. I said he could walk home, but otherwise he wasnt going anywhere. Then we checked on Dungeon Drop again, even longer, so we went to Texas Cyclone. This was also an hour, so i went to Ultra Twister. This was 20 minutes, so my brother's friend and i rode it, and by brother waited.

Ultra Twister-TOGO Heartline-This was the only line with people smoking. But it wasnt a huge line, so it was bearable. We got to cut a few poeple becuase they needed 4 riders. We got the first row. The tunnel was lighted purple and at the end of the tunnel it was green.(the tunnel is the place where you go backwards) It was also smoother than usual. The drop has some nice air and then at the bottom you get some nice g's. then you get air on the hill and then you do a roll. Then you stop, and go backwards, and do 2 rolls. It was really fun, but the first roll hit my shoulders hard, so they kinda hurt. 8 of 10

We then got my brother, who said he wanted to go home, and checked to see if B:TE had a 2 hours line.

Batman: The Escape- Intamin Stand-up- It didnt have a line outside the graffiti area, so i kept going into the drainage pipe, still no one, and then there were people right before the stairs. My brother said that the line was too long because it wasnt a very good ride. I said, "See ya. You can wait at the exit."He went on it, and we were in the 3rd row. Before we got on, the ride attendant told the guy behind us to take off his earings. The guy was like, "You gotta be kidding, this are brand new." The ride op said he had to take them off to ride. The other guy said"What if i said you arent liable?" The ride op shook his head, and left. Mr. Earing said he wouldnt ride. When I got on I was on the closest seat to the gates. They got the trains out pretty fast for B:TE using a new method of checking seats and restraints. SFAW sure has done very well with ride ops this year and trying to keep lines down during fright fest. The drop was fun as usual, and at the bottom there was a bump or two, but then it was smooth from there on out. The loop had some g's, the turn around is almost an extra inversion if you are standing in the seat i was standing in. Then there was the airtime hill, which is really cool when you are standing. After that the breaks and a little drop into a few turns. One turn goes through the loop, and then the train speeds up and you are in a mini helix. Then you come to a turn where the trains slam against the track for some reason. I knew about it and held on, suffering no pain whatsoever. Also at this point are some cool lights that move, if you know what i mean. Then then you go into a tunnel with some lights that are moving backwars, making it seen like the train is slowing down alot. There is a hill in this tunnel, but the airtime isnt as good on the other hill. Then you do a banked turn and go into the breaks. My brother and his friend didnt know about holding on and bumped their heads hard. I had told them bout the spot, but they didnt listen. Rating: 7.5 of 10.

After that ride, i didnt go on any others. We ate, and i ordered a five dollar burger, and they didnt give me any fries. Then i left. It was about 10:00. So, overall, it was a good trip, except my brother and his friend were stupid most of the time.
