I am really getting excited to try it out.  If I am not mistaken I am thinking they have a hot tub out by the pool, is this correct?

They only had 1 side running at the swing, I did not look at OR or PK close.  WF was only running 1 train.

I had forgotten but I also seem to recall different vendors have different sauces, which they used to sell.  Anyway, I will eating any of the BBQ down there again and if I do it will be at the mine since it is all you can eat for just a couple bucks more.

I drove by your place today but am currently staying at the Hampton out by the golf course since this is a business stay.  Next time I am in town I will be doing the Ozark!

I was just referring to the BBQ offerings at the festival.  I can now answer this question.  I got the sliced brisket dinner which was $14.99 and the wife got some sort of smoked sausage with cheese and other stuff on a bun.  I can't remember how much it was.  Anyway, the brisket tasted old and dry to me.  Wife said the sausage was OK but not worth the price.  So, IMO if eating BBQ at the park, forget paying $14.99 down there and spend an extra $2 and get the buffet at the mine.  I will NOT be doing any of the BBQ in the red/gold anymore.  I bet it was a lot better when they had outside folks in there selling their BBQ.

That is not too bad.  If we would have got there at opening we probably would have rode more rides.  It was not super busy by the time we left at 3 but as mentioned on another thread we skipped many because the lines were longer than we wanted to wait and they were only running 1 train on most.

We were there today but by the time we got to the FITH the line was too long.  We ended up NOT riding FITH, PK, TGS, and WF, and OR because the lines were too long.  Actually, we got in TT within about 5 minutes after we arrived at around 11am and then did FM and went down to the GE area taking our time.  Sat on the back porch at the cooking school looking at the new stage where my 10 year old commented he did not like the new stage, it was just plain and generic.  Nothing special like the old one.  Then had lunch at Red/Gold and after that lines started getting too long for rides.

In all the years I have been going to SDC during the Blue Grass/BBQ festival we have never eaten any of it.  We have strolled thru the red/gold hall and checked it out but thats about it.  Since we will be there tomorrow what/where is the best bang for the buck for food at this deal?   We usually do not eat at the city very often but end up leaving early to mid afternoon when it starts getting busy if we get there pretty close to opening.

Well, I am not into Blue Grass too much so I guess that explains that.  So for this Sunday it sounds like earlier is better and it will start getting busy later in the day from people going to this show.

I have no idea who Rhonda Vincent is, so I guess I should be good.

Ok got ya.  I asked on the other thread how their behavior was and this answer is nicely.  It is quite sad adults act that way.

So what was their attitude?  Were they just rude or what?  Just curious.  Was it worse than a typical YCW?
