All Busch Gardens Rides Were Open! But...

I even got a mini preview of Howl-O-Scream and a small construction update on Project Driftwood.

My 200th Coaster Almost Didnāt Happen | Alabama Adventure Coaster Jay 2026-08-11 | I went to Alabama Adventure with one major goal: get my 200th coaster credit on Rampage! After 2+ years of not operating, the coaster reopened in the summer of 2026. I started the day at 197 credits. I rode the Wacky Worm and Cheddar Chase before heading to Rampage for the big milestoneā¦ only for the coaster to break down.After waiting to see if Rampage would reopen, I left the park for a quick Buc-eeās stop before coming back later ā and thankfully, Rampage was running again.Not only did I finally get coaster #200, but I ended up getting 10 rides on Rampage. In this video, I take you through the entire experience and give my full thoughts on Alabama Adventureās classic wooden coaster. Have you ridden Rampage?

SeaWorld Orlando Was Having a Rough Dayā¦ Coaster Jay 2026-05-21 | I visited SeaWorld Orlando for the first time in 10 monthsā¦and it turned into one of my most disappointing visits yet. Manta was down, Pipeline and Ice Breaker were running one train, Kraken closed early, Journey to Atlantis was closed, and even the Seven Seas Food Festival sample was cold. Thankfully Mako and its ride ops saved the day. Was this just a bad day, or is SeaWorld Orlando slipping?Filmed on 5/10/26 using DJI Osmo Action 4 camera.
Happy 30th birthday Montu! Coaster Jay 2026-05-17 | Montu opened at the last minute so I rushed to Busch Gardens Tampa to get some quick rides before close.
Freedom Flyer SURPRISED Me at Fun Spot Orlando Coaster Jay 2026-05-15 | Itās been years since my last visit to Fun Spot Orlando, so I decided to stop by late at night for a few rides before the park closed at midnight. What I expected to be a quick visit turned into an AMAZING night riding Freedom Flyer and White Lightning! I was especially surprised by Freedom Flyer. Iāve always looked at it as just a mild family suspended coaster, but riding it at night completely changed my opinion. White Lightning was also running great as usual, and I even took on Conquest and managed to pass almost everyone on the track! Sometimes the smaller parks end up delivering some of the most fun experiences, and Fun Spot Orlando at night is something every coaster fan should experience.Filmed on 5/09/26 using DJI Osmo Action 4 camera.

I Tried Busch Gardens Tampas New Ordering Systemā¦ So You Donāt Have To Coaster Jay 2026-04-21 | Busch Gardens Tampa Bay recently introduced a new ordering system at Zagora Cafe, so I decided to test it out for myself during a busy Sunday visit. For those who don't know, Zagora Cafe had walls up because they were adding this new system and it recently reopened a couple weeks ago. However things doesn't go as smoothly. From closed kiosks to discount issues, confusing processes, and overall food qualityā¦ this experience didnāt go as smoothly as expected. In this video, I walk through the full process of using the new kiosks, share what went wrong, and give honest feedback on what could be improved.Iāll always give Busch Gardens credit when they get things rightābut Iāll also hold them accountable when the experience falls short.Have you tried the new ordering system at Zagora Cafe? Let me know your experience in the comments.
