On this day the 19th of October, we’ve participated in something I thought I would never see happen with any Theme Park. It was frustrating and really did light the anger fire underneath us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the 25+ years of going to Cedar Point, I have NEVER seen a scene like we saw today as we tried to make it to the 2nd to the last day of operation for the 2019 season at Cedar Point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We failed! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We left Michigan around 9 Am an arrived in Sandusky, Ohio around 1 pm. We quickly found ourselves in one of the many stationary traffic jams that were near Cedar Point and throughout the Sandusky area. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We tried to be smart and cut through the side streets to try to get ahead of the backed up traffic, but we would end up behind a long line of cars that were stationary no matter where we went. Most of them were out of the car chatting with other drivers. We probably could of held a giant block party at that point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With over 2 hours of trying to gain an edge and find a way over to the main entrance of Cedar point, we couldn’t get close. With the car off we sat, nothing was moving. The frustration began to mount.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We saw people getting frustrated and getting angry. They were hollering at each other. Word was there were several accidents on various routes to Cedar Point as people became impatient. At one point we had a man with white hair and a long bear get out yelling “you cannot block the road” Several times he yelled as he exited his truck behind us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

He continued to walk to the street that was about 4 cars ahead of us and started yelling at everyone “you cannot block the rode!” and a few other obscenities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although I’m not sure why, everyone was stuck, no one could go anywhere. So if he had a problem, he should of headed to the front of the line to take out his rage. After all Cedar Point was the center of this madness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The closest we could get was 51 minutes from the place, which according to this was around 3 miles. From what I was hearing this wasn’t even close as the cars were not moving at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
