I did it 2 times in a row with rider swap this past trip and I am almost fell asleep in the pre-show, couldn't listen to that guy 17 times
In the days after the COVID reopening I rode 7 times (4 consecutive and then 3 consecutive). If it wasn't for the reduced pre-show they were using I couldn't have done that.

We could have kept going on and on and on. It was especially convenient because they were allowing cut through re-rides from the exit hall back to the entrance. However, we found that the experience stops being as good when you ride so many times in a short period. Your brain starts to get used to the effect.

When it was getting busier in the subsequent months we found that it was more enjoyable when you'd have to wait 20 or 25 minutes in the queue after the first ride.

What is that in Tron: Lightcycle/ Run it's a sign for safety?:confused:
I would assume so. If you look at the very left edge of what @tparris cropped, you can see what appears to be a tapstile, and in some of the wider shots from @DCBaker above, you can see it precedes a series of stanchions along the right side of the flyover pathway. I imagine this is the entrance to the extended queue.

That looked like a height marker to the left. Wonder where the test seat will be in all this. It would be odd to walk all further up to a seat vs near the board/time display.

The tone of what I can gather from this post acts like it is unrealistic. Junior high often goes to 9th grade and there is dual enrollment or IB programs. It checks out.
In our high school it had four years with the years named the same as college. Juniors would be in 11th grade and seniors in the last year (12th)

Yes. That is how many are. 6, 7, and 8 are middle school grades. Some even only do 7 and 8.

Junior Highs are often different than Middle Schools. They end at 9th grade. You can to IB programs and dual enrollment during your HS career. Many High School Students graduate with an Associate's Degree in hand. He could certainly legit be ending a Master's Program since Tron was announced in 2017.

I feel old. Nothing new.

He said he was a junior in high school, nothing about junior high. Must be a boy genius
