Cedar Point OCTOBER 2020

[@matthewbuttery8529]

This is the closest I'll get to visiting Cedar Point this year. Thank you so much for making these.

[@CoasterBob62]

You're welcome!

[@jaydazanae3336]

The park is so busy. I’ve never seen an amusement park this busy during the pandemic. Be safe out there and love your videos. 😷💖

[@CoasterBob62]

It was a bit scary being around so many people, but I still felt safe for the most part. Thanks for watching!

[@metallifreak100]

It was busy when I went 2 months ago. The busiest I’ve ever seen it to be honest. Though, I usually go during the end of April/early May. When a lot of places remain closed, all that does is bottleneck everyone into the places that are actually open. I’m a big hiker and visit a couple national parks every year. This year was the busiest I’ve ever seen it in the Smokey Mountains, Glacier National Park, and the Grand Canyon.

Great footage I am now 38 years old when I was a child we would go every year I went as a teenager and an adult. This is the best park in the United States if you want my opinion so many memories.

[@AKSURFS]

This is so cool..... I haven't been there for such a long long time, it's so great to see this!

[@vortexluigirosalina5557]

It’s still packed even though with limited capacity

Because it was on a Saturday. Go on a Monday or Tuesday and it’s dead.

[@noname-il6nq]

Omg...i clicked so fast! Love your videos and CP!!

[@CoasterBob62]

Great to hear -- thanks!

[@kelseyfleck2348]

I was there that day and I waited in that line for GateKeeper to open. I only rode that, Dragster, and Steel Vengeance. It was almost an all day process to ride SV. Had to get in line for access passes at 1:30 and didn’t even end up getting on until 7:00. Missed my Maverick and Millie time slots by hours but was only 10 minutes late for Dragster. God that day was terrible.

[@confranfan]

Nice job with this Bob! Can’t be there now but feel like I was watching this! Thank you!

[@CoasterBob62]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jamiescott-gobin3376]

Really lovely footage!

[@barbaradowell4182]

Coaster Bob, thanks for another very well done, fun video. You always get such great shots of the coasters, as well as other points of interest.

[@CoasterBob62]

Thank you, Barbara! I always enjoy putting these together -- it's nice to still have an audience.

[@ebkdnb77]

Even if I lived in Sandusky I wouldn't go to cp on this day. But great video thanks for letting me see those crazy lineups WOW.

[@stillborn62]

It amazes me they still went all out with the pumpkins for the set up some displays that's awesome

[@bonniegottschalk2978]

It was great to see how things are different this year I miss not being there but I am on Mackinac island needed a little change great video

[@SeanFlaharty]

Yikes! That place was packed. I was at KI a few weeks ago and left early as it was just too busy. Hopefully it won't be too long before we can hang out at a park again.

[@CoasterBob62]

When I saw the line of traffic on the causeway that day, my anxiety level jumped. But I was also excited about being there to document it. I really missed hangin out with you this year, dude. We'll try again next season.

[@SeanFlaharty]

@@CoasterBob62 I missed hanging out with you as well man. I went to KI yesterday and it wasn't the best day if I am being honest. Too cold and most of the rides shut down due to the temperature. I had a great time running into folks. I applaud the KI staff for opening the park this year. It was needed.

[@CoasterBob62]

@@SeanFlaharty I contemplated going to KI again on closing day, but thought better of it. Just too cold. I was checking in on CP during the day and it looked even worse.

[@thomaskylecreative]

Wow. And I thought our lines were bad. Hopefully you were still able to enjoy your visit! Amazing as always, Bob.

[@CoasterBob62]

Thanks, Kyle! I had a decent time, even though I didn't ride anything. I hope to visit your home park again soon!

[@bobs_coasterexperience3025]

Wow That was very busy. Great stuff Bob. I miss the company. I am sure next year will be better, we will once again be the BOB'S only separated by a DECADE Mr. 62, and Mr. 72. Take care. I hope to make it to Kings Island on Nov. 1st but that is still 2 weeks away a lot can change. Be Safe, Be Happy, and most of all BE YOU!!!

[@CoasterBob62]

Good to hear from you again, Bob -- you're still alive! Awesome!! Not sure when I'll be at KI again, but I'll be lookin' for ya. You be safe as well.

God, Raptor is so pretty. It’s compact location on the midway is just beautiful. I often take this park for granted because I’m a Cleveland native, but it’s truly unlike anything else.

[@dindog22]

you have some really beautiful footage

[@CoasterBob62]

Thank you very much!

[@littlestextstorymha2524]

Lol its funny how you posted this as i was on a ride AT cedar point

[@adamdragster]

Hooray! You’ve had good luck with Top Thrill Dragster for both of your visits this year!

[@CoasterBob62]

Almost gave up hope on this trip.

[@adamdragster]

@@CoasterBob62 Never give up hope!

[@jemarihargrove3741]

This reminds me of that time Magic Mountain had 'bring a friend day'

[@randyharrison4065]

I think the fact that the park was that busy just shows how much people are in need of recreation and being able to get out again which is possible to do safely!

[@barsaf9989]

"Top thrill dragster testing dude." Haha! That sounds like a cool job.

[@Stagnant_Gravy]

His reaction is just like mine when riding it

[@EPICsmiley10]

You're absolutely right. It is an amazing job! Too bad the ride shut down right before I was about to test it.

[@zimcatduckie2283]

[@kbuinowski]

what group do i have to look up for the winterchill out at cedar point

[@Paneeks1960]

Loved seeing it all Bob. When you mentioned that the Steel Vengeance was way back here. Roughly how long of a wait was that? Loved the night footage too. You are still a master. No one does these park videos better than you and Sean. You are both legends in my eyes. Next season will be here before we know it. Hopefully we will all be in a safer environment by then. Thanks CB~ 'Rob/Boston

[@timk987]

From past experience it looks like the two lines that Bob commented on where people were "camped out" was the lines for access passes and not the ride itself. Once they begin passing the passes out, then the line moves quite quickly as captured at 18:57. When I visited a little earlier in the year the Steel Vengeance access pass line went passed the railroad tracks by Gemini, but the line for the ride was contained to the queue within in the structure (which for me was a two and a half hour wait) People arriving early (with passes stamped for the upcoming hour) may begin to form a line that wraps behind the sign and may curl back along the lockers. These fall crowds are little crazy with next year looking to be pure insanity!

[@CoasterBob62]

Great explanation -- thanks!

[@CoasterBob62]

Tim K below explains the line situation well. I didn't ride anything, so I don't know any of the wait times. I couldn't imagine waiting 2-1/2 hours in a cue with other folks...too risky for me. Haven't seen Sean yet this season. I'm afraid that next season might look the same if we don't get our act together, but hopefully we'll have a vaccine widely available by then.

[@Firebreather719]

Does cedar point have the fast lane pass this year? I heard they didnt, oh and I went to kings island 3 days ago its been 6 years since I been last time. 4 years since I been to cedar point.

[@tonycommodore8929]

No Fast Lane. Only guests allowed in that line, were Annual Pass holders that had already purchased that perk with their passes.

[@mariahtownsend6345]

Nice. Video ❤️❤️❤️

[@thetrainguy1]

I wish I would've known how crazy the park was going to be before I booked it.

[@markfrommichigan]

Did you make it for 2021 winterfest?

[@Jerrymorrison]

Just curious, what were the wait times on the coasters?

[@tonycommodore8929]

Was there on 10/17 & 10/18 and the coasters all had 70+ minute wait times. Most were over 90 minutes. Even the top 4 that needed an access pass had over an hour wait. IMO, for operating during pandemic conditions, CP let too many people in the park. It truly sucked. PLUS, staying at The Breakers didn't even give you the normal perk of entering an hour early. Talk about screwing the public.

[@verticalelements]

Ha! I was there that day! Busy as hell that weekend

[@NickyD]

no way in hell the park was doing half capaitcy six flags in october didnt loom like this when i was at the one in NJ CP def wasnt doing half capaity park should have never been this crowded this october ever 5:08 you know the place is packed when WT has a line ever or that long ever which also means this park was def doing over capaity limits

[@louiselanthier5135]

I think there are way too many people in the Park. Those line ups can't be safe if you have a speader. What is an access pass?

[@tonycommodore8929]

SteVe, Dragster, Maverick and MF handed out timed "Access Passes" twice a day, at 12 & 4:30, and one pass for each ride. The only way you could get in line to ride those 4, was to first wait in line to get a pass. You got in line during the hour window that was on the passes. Once those were all gone, that was it, no more riders could ride.

[@davesmith3052]

I hate that Witches Wheel is gone......park just isn’t the same.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the park is closed Friday. It's only open Saturdays and Sundays for the rest of the season.

[@Jay-eo2xu]

When I go to cedar point later today I’m gonna freak out if no one is wearing any mask

[@djavatar68]

What a nightmare! No thx. Lines for corkscrew and a carousel? And too many empty seats on the coaster cars. Did everyone in Ohio show up that day? What's the point in spacing out those arcade games when you have all those people standing near each other in lines and walking around?

[@wjcj1234]

Seems like all it does is make the crowds mingle more evenly. It's foolish. It's all about power and control imho.

[@mattman237]

Did they remove chairs from the wave swinger or is it always that sparsely configured?

[@CoasterBob62]

They removed them this season.
