| | Six Flags St. Louis question I don't want this to become an argument. I realize crowds are unpredictable but the locals to a park have a much better idea of attendance than travelers. So what is attendance like during the week in July? Is AAA day still Wed? Would a QBot be worth getting? Gold? Season Pass discounts? Any good tips for this park are appreciated.

| | | When I went to the park on a Sunday 2 seasons ago I found it extremely easy to get everything done with lots of time to spare (I didn't go to the water park, though). So I wouldn't think getting a QBot would be worth it.

| | | I'm in no way a local of the park living six hours away or so but I've been there twice, incldingjust a few weeks ago. The first time I was there was in 2003 on a Sunday at the very end of June. This year, I was there on a Monday (July 2). Both times, the lines were very short, some practically a walk on. So I feel confidet saying that you probably won't have to deal with very long lines.
A little info on the park, it can be somewhat confusing. Most parks seem to have one big circle to travel aroun with maybe a few paths that branch off. This park has paths that lead everywhere and have plenty of dead ends. It's not a big deal and the park looks nice. And one nice thing about it that's different from many parks I've been to is many of the coasters queue lines offer a lot of shade or covering. So you won't have to worry about getting sunburned as much.

| | | I was there last year on a Thursday and the park was very light on crowds.
Longest wait was like 20 minutes for Freeze and that was with 1 train.
Most parks during the week aren't that bad, unless it's a mega park like SFGradv, SFMM, CP, etc. Even CP wasn't bad at all on a Thurs & Fri last month. Most everything was a short wait except the big boys.

| | | I was very pleased with CP on a Saturdy in July! Couldn't belive our longest line was 45 min. I was with a noobie, so we didn't do the 2 biggest.
