Awww..what a heart warming speech at the end of your video. Being positive and humble are what we desperately need these days. I do believe the viewers and subscribers in your channel are drawn to you because of the great qualities you have. And I do believe they are all great supporters of yours! YAY! Cruse is back! Hahaha!
@yongliu3321 haha thanks! Yeah, the group of people we have here are like no other. I really couldn't ask for anything better 😊 I just love sharing my thoughts and feelings. I think it's healthy, and also, I know others like myself are out there. Who've been through what I've been through or worse. I'm here to say it's okay, and things can and will get better.
Yes!! Extend Grizzly!!! I love Grizzly, it's probably one of my favorite coasters at Great America! It's super fun and quite the groovy ride. Extend Grizzly!!! Make a very steep drop.
@@Eldons_Excursions maybe they should also modify the drop if possible by making it really steep. Or they could just add a steeper drop in that additional portion. But yeah Tiki twirl being closed all the time is a very sad piece of news. So might as well just get grizzly here.

Hey Eldon, it was nice to finally meet you in person last night. I did notice that there was more fog and lighting effects in Orleans Place this year and some new Halloween decorations around the park. Thanks for the shout out. Looking forward to doing a video together soon.
@marivega3294 haha oh man, I'm honestly surprised how comfortable I am now with doing it. A couple of years ago, if one person was remotely looking my way, I couldn't record haha
Another great Vlog but I wouldn’t expect anything less by you 😉 that ice cream looked good tho! And I finally realized what was missing in GA and it was over by the treat trail and it was the entire roller coaster that used to be over in that section .. it’s been soo long since I’ve been in that park 😅
Another great vlog Eldon. Darn was looking forward to you eating that ghost burger hopefully they will get the ingredients soon. Also enjoy your interaction with that lady "Lucky Tool".
I'm a ride operator at CGA and I've heard around from other associates that apparently Cedar Fair only sold the land underneath the park to make up what they lost during the pandemic. Six Flags Corp has gave the thumbs up to continue funding and investing in the park. Also, the city of Santa Clara has zoned the area for "Theme Park use only".
I wonder if I missed you. Which night did you go to Great America? I was there on Saturday for the whole day. It was so much fun. Just seeing the decorations by day and by night how everything shined so bright. It may not be the Halloween Haunt anymore but Tricks or Treats is a fun event at the park.
@@Eldons_Excursions I’m sorry I missed you. It would have been cool to say hi to you. I was also working on a video too for my station. I’m glad you had a great time at the park.
@SadBunnyLofi oh the lines weren't bad at all! Especially towards the end of the night. Reminds me of the old Disneyland days when after the shows, a lot of people go home, and the wait times for rides are like walk ons.
Wow when did they stop doing fright fest? We would go to GA every year for the haunted houses and scare zones. Cool to see the rethemed season being catered to families.
I have been trying to see if they posted a Halloween Menu yet...and checked the CA site and their blog but nothing posted! I already have my haunt trip planned again this year and while in San Jose, will be going to Tricks and Treats again between Winchester Mystery House and Pirates of Emerson. With my Prestige Knotts Pass with All Parks pass and Meal Plan, there is no reason to not to go. Just sat with some food and drink at a fire pit last year for a few hours. I had that Bride of Frank Icecream last year, was good...and one warning...it doesnt just turn your mouth and lips black...it turns other things...after a day or two...into other interesting colors!!!
@demonoid7469 Nice! Dude you're going to have a fun time up here this year. Well, you usually always do lol I found the food items on their IG account. Other than that, I didn't see anything on their app or website either. P.S. yeah, I was laughing pretty hard in the bathroom yesterday hahah

@@Eldons_Excursions Yes, and I am sure it would be really fun. Maybe Grizzly could move a bitaster? Maybe 60 MPH rather than the current 55?

Nice hoodie great times 😊
@@terenceaninion4378 yeah! It's a pretty nice one
I was not gonna go as it seems more for kids but after seeing this and I have a Gold pass I wanna go now lol. Love atmosphere at least! Nice Vlog!

Hello was there a lot of rides open? And long lines ?
