So I have a CF platinum pass, and I haven't been to KBF yet, so why the hell not?!

Anyway, Knott's I actually liked, not really the greatest rides but there was some charm to it, and I can see how it was probably at one time really good, but Cedar Fair ruins everything right?

In all honesty, I hate CF and if it wasn't such a whore for credits, then I would have probably not gone till Xcelerator opened. Which BTW looks sooo good and sucked to look at, whatever I'll be back sometime I guess.......

Perilous Plunge I thought quite frankly was the most awesome thing since El Toro's first drop, I couldn't get enough of that drop in the last row, seriously amazing, even if there are OTSR's! My favorite ride at Knott's

Silver Bullet was better than I expected, maybe I just like it because I'm a B&M fan and most people are always raving about Intamin. The over banked turn is pretty darn sweet.

It looked like Xcelerators catwalks next to the launch were almost done being built.

Jaguar was open even though the website said it would be closed.

If your still reading this then thanks, If not.... well...

Picture time :)
