    First time I've disagreed with several of your choices, but it's your list. Kings Island and SDC are easily S tier and Sea World Orlando is one of my overall favorite parks period. It sounds like it's been sometime since you've been there, but the appearance is top notch, coaster lineup strong, and animal exhibits some of the best. I have BGT and SWO very close, with the edge to BGT because they have more coasters. Having just gone to,BGW, KD, and Carowinds last week, it's easy to see how much I like SWO overall.

    • @ThemeParkAvenue
      @ThemeParkAvenue  Před 2 lety +2

      Silver Dollar City might be S tier but I have to think on that about the overall experience. It is a beautiful park and there are good rides and top tier food, but the experience was different from what I’m used to in a park in a way that makes it hard to compare. I liked it, but it wasn’t the same type of fun I’ve had at the S tier parks. It’s been too long for Kings Island and for SeaWorld it has been a bit as well. I just didn’t have a great experience despite great coasters. I’m surprised this was the first video you disagreed with a lot because I think I’m usually near impossible to agree with lol.

      Just visited Seaworld mid July. B tier at best. The rides are only decent because they are almost all B&M’s. Mako was good, but kind of a let down; even in the back row. Ice Breaker is Meh. Manta is decent. Kraken is really good for a floorless. That’s legit a solid “meh” lineup. Fortunately they are adding more.

      Fiesta Texas sucks now. They don’t let the rides run. Half the park is closed. Some of the rides need bad repairs. The operations don’t make sense and the food used to be waaaaay better. Any day 7 of 18 rides will be down or on massive delays. They don’t give adequate shade and the entire park is pretty much operated by kids and it stinks the place literally stinks……

    I know you haven’t been to Busch Gardens Williamsburg, but I just have to say (in my personal opinion) it absolutely outshines the Tampa park in almost every aspect. It’s definitely worth visiting one day. The “one up” that I’d give to the Tampa park is Iron Gwazi, but besides that BGW is the better park imo.
    It’s also only an hour away from King’s Dominion. So it’s definitely worth vacationing there for like 4 or 5 days. Spend a day at BGW then another day at King’s Dominion, then head to colonial Williamsburg for the sites, dining, tours, etc.

    Seeing my home park Great America as an S tier up there with cedar point is definitely surprising. Definetly the best bang for you buck in terms of Rollercoaster to ticket price. Any rides in particular make you give it that placement?

    • @ThemeParkAvenue
      @ThemeParkAvenue  Před rokem +1

      I love most of Great America’s lineup. I’ve made a few videos about the park and while the best roller coaster there isn’t an elite ride, I love Raging Bull, Goliath, X-Flight, MaxxForce, American Eagle, Batman the Ride, Superman Ultimate Flight, Viper, and Vertical Velocity. The park is also atmospheric and a pleasure to walk around.
