Don't worry, they will make up there losses by people like me paying the $30-$43 ticket to get in, $10 to park, $6.00-$7.50 bottle of beer, $3.00 20 oz bottle of pop/water at cedar point. $1.00 every time you want in a locker. The list can go on and on, if they can get about $70.00 Just off of me in one day.. Multiplying that by the amount of cars in the lot, and about 2-4 people that came in each car.. ah I get sick thinking of it.. Posted by: Jeff (N.W. Ohio) on July 14, 2008 3:12AM
That is just so sad. My friends and I used to drive to Geauga Lake at least 4 times a week! So much history for me I cant believe that Cedar Point would jack up the prices so most people cant afford it just to make it look like the park needed shut down! And then say that people came there to swim! Pffffft! They had no idea! There goes my summer spot, and I wont give their water rides the time, money, or day! I hope they screw themselves hard and lose millions and millions of dollars. Posted by: joeshmoe (warren) on July 12, 2008 4:38AM
