The Gold Rusher Rollercoaster - American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Con 42 at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California

With a legendary villain like the Riddler to deal with I made sure to get a few of my super friends like Green Lantern and Super Girl to help me out.

I really like it when parks have costumed characters out for the guests to interact with. Especially for kids these are the little things that make a day at a theme park magical. A know that we are just meeting actors in costume but little kids think it is the real thing. Getting to say hi to a larger than life character; like i got to do when I was six years old when Darth Vader made an appearance at Old Chicago, made a lasting memory.

While Green Lantern may be spending his time at the front of the Justice League Battle for Metropolis ride, the coaster named after him is making a run for the border. No Taco Bell has not purchased this ride. It has been a pretty rough and troublesome ride so Six Flags has contracted with its designer; Intamin, to make it an experience that people would want to ride. The border that the ride is headed for is the US-Canadian one as this is heading for Six Flags La Ronde as the new addition for 2020.

The joke is that ACE doesn't just stand for "American Coaster Enthusiasts" as during our events the meals are primarily "all you can eat". Here's Travis, Chris, Paul and Adrianna after enjoying one of the many feasts during Coaster Con 42.

The Scream rollercoaster - The American Coaster Enthusiasts Coaster Con 42 at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, California

I have to be honest that I really forgot about Scream. Yes I did take it for a ride during ERT one night when no one was there. The problem is being an ok ride in a park with really amazing coasters Scream just blends into the background. It is a fun coaster but what Six Flags really needs to do is to move it to one of their smaller parks where it would be a BIG attraction instead of a coaster lost in the crowd. As it is built out over the parking lot with parking spaces still painted beneath it a plus if Six Flags moved it elsewhere would be to return some of the parking lot for actual parking.
