Six Flags St. Louis
Eureka, Missouri
Opening Weekend

The rumor was that Evel Knievel was originally supposed to go to Six Flags
New England but they couldn't get permission to build it so at the
last minute Six Flags moved it here and I thank them for doing that as it's
such an awesome ride and is a great addition to the park
Just a short walk around the building that houses the Scooby Doo dark ride
from Evel Knievel is Mr. Freeze. Freeze runs the best at the start
of the season because since it's not totally warmed up you get fantastic
hang time going backwards through the top hat inversion.
On our first ride we were just a millisecond from valleying as it crept
through that inversion. It would have been a pain for the park but
I know all of us would have loved being evacuated from the ride which is
something that I have never had happened on a coaster.
Like Mr. Freeze opening weekend is the best time to take The Boss for a
spin.
