Top Thrill 2 + Fireworks
I’ve been going to cedar point literally my whole life, so I really just had to share this experience because having been there so much, I feel like there aren’t too many standout experiences for me anymore.
That being said, my brother and I decided to head to CP tonight literally at like 6 pm because we saw how dead it was. My brother hadn’t been since 2024 and unfortunately couldn’t join the family for pass previews for TT2. I also hadn’t been since 2024 and only rode TT2 once. We were a bit concerned when we saw a decent line with only two trains, it ended up breaking down twice, but we lucked out with back row, and during the fireworks show.
It was legitimately one of the most beautiful sights and experiences of my life. Goddamn I loved my first and only ride so much on TT2, but I was absolutely blown out of the water with this ride. The backwards launch is one of the most diabolical things I’ve ever experienced on a ride. Cresting the spike and being able to see the fireworks in my peripheral vision was just insane. Not to mention the drop off the spike lasts forever omg. The fireworks show was in the grand finale and my god cresting the top of the hill and just seeing all of the colors, rides, literally just so fucking beautiful. Not to mention the reflection on the lake and all of the fireworks being launched around Sandusky + greater area.
Just had to share, but truly one of the most incredible and most memorable rides I’ve had in SO long.
