I have been! I used to have a season pass.... then i got sick of driving 45 min each way and waiting in lines and paying 5 bucks for a soda...It's fun to go like once a year...
The Boss I hear is the fastest Wooden Roller Coaster in the midwest.
The new ride Xcaliper looks fun haven't been on it yet.
Mr. Freeze is cool, but the ride is like 42 seconds long.
Batman is a classic i love it.
Ninja i dont like because it hurts my neck and ears because the padding is so old it gives you no comfort what so ever.
Hurrican Harbor- it was made i think 2 years ago and you pay admission to the park you get into the water park to, i like the water park big wave pool it stops every 15 min. they have huge body slides one that almost goes straight down. and ones with inner tubes. I like the new feature they have right now.
Laura- If you and keith are thinking about going here is something that might help...I saw an advertisment saying that Adults get in for a Kids Admission Price.
Adult Admission price: 38.99
Kid Admission Price: 24.99
Parking: 8.00
About parking what you could do is park in the hotel that is right by six flags then walk over to save 8 dollars lol and just tell them your a guest there thats what i did...lol
Oh i almost forgot...Everytime i go i have to go on Dragon's Wing it cost like 15 bucks per person but it is so fun, you go on this cord with 2-3 other people they raise u up 152 feet in the air then just drop you and u fly down like superman in the shape of a U... You can see the whole park it's a cool ride but cost lots of money.
Laura- I hope that answers all your questions!
Here's there website if you need more info... http://www.sixflags.com/parks/stlouis/index.asp

I used to get a season pass as well...it's pretty fun. Since I'm a rollercoaster fan, I kinda go to those rides...alot! Screaming Eagle used to be the fastest rollercoaster in the world (approx. 62mph top speed) in the 1970s. The Boss has since eclipsed it in terms of size and speed.

Kinda OT, but the rollercoaster capital of the US is Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH. They have 16 operating rollercoasters! The fastest and tallest rollercoaster resides there...the Top Thrill Dragster. It's 420 feet high, and it tops out at 120mph!

Here's a listing of all the rollercoasters they have: http://www.rcdb.com/locationdetail1.htm

yeah six flags is like 2 miles from my house....i dont have a season pass but get free tickets.

six flags has doubled it size 2 years ago with the new water park, which is fun when not too many ppl are there.

U should go when the little HS kids go back to skool, since the crowd will be much less.

And Cory how in the hell does it take u 45 mins to get there???¿¿¿

Which kind of go-karting? The casual kind, or the serious kind? I've sent you info on the serious kind a looong time ago.

I guess it doesn't have to be on a Friday. It would be better to go on a weekday is all I'm saying. Friday just seems the best b/c that would make a 3 day weekend for most of us... To many kiddies running around there on a weekend.

Keith
