Great Adventures employees are ,most of the time, very friendly. Most of Hershey's employees are proably some of the meanest and rudest people I have ever seen anywhere, ever. All of the other parks that I've been to are good, but in my opinion Great Adventure has the best. I know it can be hard to keep up the friendlyness when there is a big crowd, but they still do ok.

Personally, I think there is a distinct difference in the quality and commitment of theme park employees today as opposed to 20 years ago. Even Disney employees do not appear to be as stellar as they once were. I've worked at Great Adventure, Magic Mountain, and Disneyland and, without a doubt, I enjoyed Great Adventure the most. Incidentally, the very first time I worked at GA, it was on the Dream Street Cables. It was hard, but more fun than any other position I worked in the park.

The El Toro staff in 2011 was really nice to me. 1 guy got me on El Toro.



Thank you Sir.

With the area being "revived" I'd love to see a Zamperla Balloon Race themed to the original GAdv balloons replace the remote control cars behind big wheel and a Pirate themed tilt-a whirl for the lakefront where the remote control boats are now

I can officially confirm that the name of the new Scrambler will be "DejaVu" - as in we have seen a Scrambler ride at the park before!

anytime Great adventure adds rides, im all for it. the only problem i have with some of the type of flat rides that they add is, they are never as good as the ones at the boardwalk. GA bumber cars were always slow. when the had the musik express it was slow and didnt go backwards, the scrambler was slow. also, when they added a ton of flat rides yrs ago, they had no one to operate them, and were alwasy closed. i guess we will find out soon.

So I went to the park today for my Rediscovery training and I came across two Deja Vu cars with these logos on it ;)

Great Adventure's renewed interest in its history!
