[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 2266620, member: 10619"] Yep. Unfortunate when this isn't a possibility, though. Bigger theme parks like those at Disney World have Fast Passes, which allow you to wait in the shorter of the long lines for rides. At least the rides at bigger theme parks are usually worth the wait. The fact that you have to wait for over an hour just to ride the Steel Lasso mostly-kiddy coaster is stupid. As a kid, Frontier City was a blast. Nothing was better than getting your 13-year old ass dropped off with your friends on a summer morning to spend the day riding all the rides at least 24 times and scoping chicks in between. As an adult, my favorite part about Frontier City now is the water park thing. It's actually not half bad for being free (well, for not having an additional cost). I was at the White Castle next to Six Flags Mid America (outside of St Louis) yesterday and saw their advertisement for season passes... $10 LESS than Frontier City. Granted, with the Frontier City season pass, you also get White Water, but Six Flags is bigger than Frontier City with much better rides. Plus, they have a full size water park on site, no need to drive 30 minutes across town and pay for more parking! Though I'm not sure if Six Flags gate admission also grants access to the water park.
