Thumbs up Yucky but good day at Sixflags New England

Yes Yes yesterday i went to sixflags new england. I saw the weather and was prepared for rain. It didnt rain that bad because it didnt cause any of the rides to close down which was a good thing. Because of the rain it kept a lot of people away which was a VERY good thing because EVERY SINGLE ride there was a walkon except of superman of course. Ill list the rides i went on and rate them on how i though of them.
I got to the park at opening (12:00) and my first ride was.......

SCREAM (one time)- Scream was the first ride I went on. I was very excited since it was my first time on a drop tower because every time i would go to six flags it would always be closed. I would have to say that this thing did not reach my expectations. The only thing i found scary was how they hael you at the top which seemed like forever. The drop wasnt that great but it wasnt to bad. 7/10

Batman the Dark Knight (Four Times) This ride was alright. Its no Medusa or Kraken but it was pretty good considering the limited space they had. I had two rides in the middle and one in the front and one in the back. Pretty smooth ride. 8/10

Mind Eraser (two times) Wow this ride really hade me suprised. The first time I went on this ride which was last summer, I hated it. I had the biggest back ache of my life after getting off and i had a huge migrane. But today IT WASNT THAT BAD! I know I know you probably think i was stoned or something but it wasnt as rough as it was. I had so much fun the first time..........I went on it a second time! Very good. You just have to lean into the turns and inversions to avvoid headbanging. 7/10!

Flashback (two times) Ehhhhhh this ride is short,rough,uncomfortable,short,small,shot,anddid i say short. Geez they need to do something else with these boomernangs. I mean cant they add another element or something. lol. All are the same! Well it was alrigth but i only went on it cause no one was on it. Got back row both times. 6/10

Poison Ivy (once) Ok this ride dosnt even deseve to be talked about. I just rode this thing so i can say "I rode all the coasters at the park" Front row! lol. Ok my part of the train was over the hill before the back part of the tarin was out of the station! ha 3/10.

Cyclone (once) I love this ride. Got front row. Of course it was rough but you just gotta accept that. You cant expect a very old woddie to be smooth. I like it. Bought the on-ride photo since it was the funniest picture i have ever seen of myself. 8/10.

Thunderbolt (once) Just went on this to burn time. Nothin special. Good for a beginner. 4/10.

and last but not least........................

SUPERMAN RIDE OF STEEL (twice) oh my god. I cant even explain this ride. The only thing i can say is that it kicked the crap out of my recent number one coaster which was nitro. wow that first drop has to be the single greatest drop on any coaster. The airtime is so overwhelming i felt as if i was being thrown out of an airplane. The rest of the ride is great providing maximum airtime on every hill.

And to finish the day i did a couple of flat rides such as buzzsaw and tomahawk. Had a good day over all. It woulda been perfect if it didnt rain out. Would have to give it a 8/10.
