We went to Hershey Park last Tuesday. My first time there, and it was freaking awesome. You already said that you like it Jim, so you don't need to hear it again, but that isn't gonna stop me. Longest wait for any ride we went on was maybe 20 minutes. Most rides had a 5 minute wait. I rode various coasters maybe 10 times. My son, who had never been on one before rode them 12 times. We did tons of other rides too. The go-cart style classic cars with the bumper rail down the center of the track was a hit with the kids. There was no wait for that. They would ride it, and then run around and ride it again. My wife and I let them chauffeur us around the track. We probably each rode 30 rides total that day in the entire park.

And I bought the tickets at AAA before hand for like $10 off each. Around $40 per person instead of around $50 per person.

I love Hershey Park. But then again, I was there on a Tuesday, not a weekend.

Oh, and you measure yourself at the gate to the park, and it tells you what size you are in an easy to remember candy bar. (I was a Jolly Rancher.) Each ride tells you what candy bars can ride it, so there is no confusion.
