Daredevil Daze Enthusiast Event

Every year Six Flags St. Louis throws with the American Coaster
Enthusiasts Heart Of America Region the Daredevil Daze enthusiast event.
The event is a blast but over the last three years it has became the
Negative-G Family Reunion as about a third of attendees are all friends
from the Negative-G Forums.
Being an Assistant Regional Rep, our very own Greg is one of the folks
who puts on this wonderful event. Here he is hanging out with
Andrew "Beastbass" as we all get our lanyards, nametags and passes for
our early morning and late night exclusive ride time, lunch and
Screaming Eagle behind the scenes tour that are all part of the event.
Here's the Regional Representatives Jeff Mast and Jennifer Lovesee-Mast
who ran the whole registration for the event.
Daredevil Daze is really one of the best ways to experience Six Flags
St. Louis for several reasons. First we get a couple of the
coasters before the park opens in the morning, in this case Mr. Freeze
and the Screaming Eagle and then we also get an hour on two more
coasters in the dark after the park closes, Batman and American Thunder
this year. Then the park is normally dead when they have it so you
get a virtual exclusive park time and to top it all off they always give
us a really unique walk back like last years behind the scenes tour of
the Scooby Do dark ride or this years Screaming Eagle tour. It's a
great event and you should join us next year.
American Thunder is a favorite of everyone so of course we spent a bunch
of the day getting some rides on this.
Since American Thunder is no longer Evel Knievel they had to paint over
the signs that laid out his career. Replacing them are a bunch of
signs that give the history of roller coasters that was put together
with Six Flags and the American Coaster Enthusiasts. The final
sign is this nice one promoting the club so hopefully we'll have a few
more people joining us at Daredevil Daze next year.
