Did a Hersheypark trip last year. It was pretty great actually. My biggest criticisms are they need some more indoor family things to do and better food that’s not sweets.
Thay have a full stake house they have plenty of food besides sweets and of course they have sweets there themed to it
MORE indoor family things!? 😂 They have musicals, zoos, seal acrobatics, an indoor coaster, arcades, games, the chocolate tour, and all the shops, restaurants, and public areas. You could spend a whole day at Hershey with kids and not do a single ride. If you get tired of all that, just hit the boardwalk for a while and relax. Not indoors, but you get my point.
bro no shit they have so many sweets the park is literally candy themed
lmao what hershey park probably has some of the best indoor family things out of any theme park in the world
@@stephen8797 Dude, that’s what I’m saying lol, especially compared to all Six Flags parks and all Cedar Fair parks. Obviously, it’s no Disney World, but this guy simply has never spent much time at Hershey. If he thinks there’s nothing to do inside for families. You could spend an entire day at the park and never do a ride. And all the restaurants are incredible. From Gyros, to Wood-smoked BBQ, to their new restaurants in chocolatetown, to run-of-the-mill stuff like Chick-fil-A or Starbucks…it’s all there.
I think you also gloss over the fact that Hershey has the best theme park hotel I have ever experienced. The food was fantastic, the grounds of the hotel were *gorgeous*, there's free chocolate at every counter and on your bed each time it gets made, on top of all the usual amenities. its just all around such a great hotel and is one of the main reasons i want to return to Hershey park at some point.
This was the video we all needed.......my home park and I'm glad that I'm not the only one who now thinks this
Not better then cedar point
@@Steven._..never been but hope too
@@Steven._..fr Hershey is my home park too and it’s not even a competition
You make some great points. Honestly the only major issue I see with Hersheypark, especially since it's my home park, is its awfully slow operations. It's a great park and I love it to death, but something has got to give with the ops.
To be honest the only slow ride ops in candymoniom
@@polishfalcon1Comet does tend to stack as well
@@polishfalcon1 and skyrush too 💀
I personally have never been to Hersheypark but I have been to Cedar Point and while the lineup of Hershey is elite, im gonna give layout to Cedar Point. I think CP has a vibe of the new mixed with the old and I really love it. Oh! I think a park to contend with CP other than Hershey could be Kings Island.
Why do u think kings island can surpass cp?
@@spicypigeon5771 KI has more space and is generally better run than CP
@@rcnerd2061 hmm interesting, i havent been to both parks so its fun knowing the atmosphere of each one.
King's Island destroys Cedar Point in my opinion.
Less coasters but all of them are quality while Cedar Point has ton of janky garbage.
Amd its an overall prettier park
Agreed! I'm a huge KI fan boy since it was my home park for a long time- but when it comes to level of quality and immense amount of space to expand Kings Island would beat both imo. Kings Island has more room to build than both CP and Hershey combined. Future is bright in Mason, Ohio
Hard disagree on "quaint" it doesn't feel quaint, it feels cramped. What gets passed off as "small park charm" is just a glaring space issue made even worse by the ever growing lines at Hersheypark. Cant get anywhere without fighting through a line
I went to Hershey for the first time this past summer (which is crazy giving its only an hour from me) and I couldn't wait to come back when I left. I think you really hit the nail on the head describing its quaint, family oriented vibe. Its incredibly Clean ,safe and attracts a good crowd of people. Im moving to Florida in 2023 so I wont be as close, but will definitely visit again.
Have always felt strongly about Hershey since they got Skyrush. Its been my home park on and off my whole life. But the new RMC just pushes it over the top for me. Cedar point is worth the 5 hour drive once-twice a year. Hershey is worth the 1 hour drive any day of the week.
It’s not that Hershey will be better, but it makes it so that since the ride line ups are close to equal, it can come down to what vibe you look for in a park
T-Shirt you wear a T-Shirt at the parks
Hershey being my home park, this is certainly not going to be the best in the country, Hershey is a very good B+/A- park, at most things, however it has glaring issues with operations and staff morale. Still have not put the effort into returning to normal hours this decade, those things alone disqualify from best park. Atmosphere is good and the park is clean, this is correct. It does many things good, few things "great" and few things underwhelming. Solid B+, I have always considered it almost but not quite best at literally everything. Which there is no shame in, in any way. Where Hershey shines is it's seasonal events, "though dark nights was a disappointment to me personally", again the staff😒. Christmas candylane is very good and has been improving yearly. Springtime is "fine", definitely worst part of the year as they don't seem prepared to operate, but rather then vs summer season. For my money KI is the country's best park with Silver dollar city on it's tail based on experience.
I 100% agree with your take of Hersheypark and grading of it between a B and B+ for me. I live less than 20 minutes from Hersheypark, visited the park numerous times since my first visit in 1996 & worked there from 2005-2009. The staff (ride ops particularly) there does make it less than satisfying for park goers and having worked there in the past, that disappoints me. They really make or break the experience whether they believe it or not. I prefer Knoebels over Hersheypark because of that and other obvious reasons - reasonably priced food and ride tickets, free admission and parking.
@@marquessmith7428 agree totally on the staff make or break, and I hate saying it regarding Hershey as it takes away from the many amazing staff members they surely have. Compared to other parks I've been to the good/bad/lazy/disinterested ratio of Hershey just doesn't hold up compared to Knoebels for sure, even Great adventure this year was leaps and bounds above the Hershey staff, and given that's a six flags park I really hate saying that, but the staff there was fantastic. Kings Dominion about on Par/slightly above Hershey as was SFA. It feels being a local Hershey has cried wolf on staffing now going on 8-9 years, it's enough to make me question how staff is treated from above, I've never worked there and can't speak to it, but it's entered my mind. They seem to have problems staffing all over the complex from Chocolate world to events at Giant center, and this started before COVID. I actually hope to someday for a year as I feel all theme park fans should work 1 for a year in a way just to see how much BS they actually put up with, I can only imagine.
My home park is Hersheypark. I just visited Cedar Point this last summer and you are completely right! CPs coasters are better imo, but Hershey beats CP in everything else.
It will be very hard to compete with parks like CP that arguably have better coasters, or Silver dollar city that has good coasters AND good theming
While I do enjoy the theming at SDC/Dollywood, I think people give it more credit then it deserves.. making a Western theme is the easiest of all theming... Only their commitment to staying in character and forcing everyone to dress old school makes it more then other places with Western sections. But that isn't that difficult, any park could recreate it fairly easily.
kings island beats out both of them. the operations are better than both the park is pretty. lines are not as long. really good lineup. and good atmostphere and night rides.
I am a huge coaster enthusiast, but I don't have the privilege of visiting these massive amusement parks very often. I basically get 1 park a year so when I go, coasters are my top priority. I value coasters 100x more than anything else because of how rarely I get to ride them (and I have to imagine my situation is pretty common). SteVe, MF, and Maverick being better than everything at Hershey more than justifies visiting CP instead. Plus, the location of CP is pretty spectacular. The view (especially from MF lift hill) is just unreal. I still think Hershey is a top 3 park in North America, but CP is in a tier of it's own for me.
I still enjoyed the video, it was cool to see how differently we view the same thing
Finease i have Hershy park as a top ten its not in my top five parks in north America
I’ve been to cp but never been to Hershey I prefer the coasters over atmosphere and I know what a good theme is cuz my home park is ki
Hershey’s vibe has always been my favorite. I’m glad other people are starting to see this park the way I do!
ApolooAmi it does have a nice family vibe and good roller coasters but it is not a top 6 North American park for me but a top ten it may not be in my top ten top 13
I went to CP this year and it was really poorly ran. Multiple coasters were down for maintenance issues several times per day. Maverick was closed for over half of the day. It was also sort of a weird vibe with dragster being down. It was my first time back since the incident.
when did you go? i went over labor day weekend and everything was running great both days
Could Not agree more!
if Hershey gets another really solid coaster to go in that supporting lineup like now a tilt or a Bermuda blitz or they could build like an intman blitz make it Not pantheon and then clinch best park
I live about an hour and a half away from Hershey and have gone there every year since I was a kid. It’s a great park but it doesn’t come close to CP. CP has the better coaster lineup (which you proved trying to prove Hershey has the better lineup, lol), a better atmosphere (I’ll take the beach and island feel over candy theming everywhere), and is more of a destination park. I also for one love how Cedar Point feels so big and spread out, it makes everything feel like a new adventure rather than crammed. HP may have better food though, I’ll give it that. Overall though Hershey might be a more UNIQUE park, but CP is by far the better park.
I rode Storm Runner twice last year
I will say that they could add a layout after the top hat for Dragster because they removed *all of the track* except for the top hat, so I wouldn't immediately say Storm Runner will be better, although it could be since I haven't ridden either.
We all actin' like the land under Candy isn't gonna get developed lol .... Let 'em cook. Let's revisit this in... idk, 5 to 10 years when Hershey has ADDED 2 or 3, and Cedar has REPLACED 3 or 4.

I love hersheypark i went Sunday and skyrush and wildcats revenge easily better then steve and maverick. So yea Hersheypark is so much better! And skyrush is a lot better now that it has the new restraints.
Hershey is my #1 park (although my #2 park is Seabreeze so I can't be talking)
You have some good points but I still think Cedar Point is better. Imo lineup is better, and some areas in the park have a better atmosphere, such as the Midway. Also, hershey feels more so an amusement park than a theme park. Cedar Point is too, but it’s hard to beat Frontier Town in terms of amusement park theming. Even though I absolutely love going to hershey, I think Cedar Point is slightly better.
If you care so much about atmosphere, you should have gone to Kings Island over Cedar Point.
I understand why CP was used as a reference for the best park in the US, though I feel you could make a really good argument King's Island tops both of these. Most enthusiasts agree SteVe beats out King's Island's top coasters of course, but the level of quality of their lineup applies here, but what really does it for me is how well the park is run. Kings Island, compared to Cedar Point, has excellent operations and very little downtime on rides, a massive selection of merch for every ride, and very kind and welcoming workers.
Having just recently visited both Kings Island and Cedar Point, I had a much better time at Kings Island. Their top 5 coaster lineup (Diamondback, Mystic Timbers, Orion, Banshee, and The Beast) is by far the best top 5 of any park I've ever been to.
This whole thread pleases me. (KI is my home park.) haven’t made it to Hershey, but I hope too sometime in the future
Kings Island is awesome & I'd probably put it over Cedar Point and Hersheypark. I went there last year on Memorial Day weekend as well as Cedar Point and Holiday World in Santa Claus, Indiana.
i just know that both are still better than any other Cedar Fair and Six Flags park
For someone who goes to Hershey multiple times a year cedar point sweeps their coasters are generally better except for hersheys intamins and they have better flats
POV:you opened this and thought this wasn’t an English speaking channel
From the perspective of a coaster enthusiast living across the country who has a limited number of trips I can spend the vacation days + travel dollars on...nothing is a bigger factor to me than "where should I travel to if I want to ride one of the top 10 coasters in the world?" Cedar Point has one of those rides, Hershey does not, and that's pretty much the end of the debate for me.
Also, East PA is much further out of the way for a midwesterner than CP. As a Michigander I do not like the summer climate of PA. Way too hot and humid. Sandusky can get that way occasionally but not deep into September like that.
Cedar point… boi bruh cedar point is the best Hershey is not.. period
I feel like people forget about kings island
Once they add a Mack Extreme Spinner or a Vekoma launched flyer they'll solidify their spot as one of the best parks in America.
One of? They solidified their spot as _one of_ the best about a decade ago. They're about to solidify their spot as one of the top 3 or 4 in the US.
@@Asshat237 Trying not to cause a ton of controversy, lol. Personally I believe that it already is for the most part. The only problem, in my opinion, is their woodies. I'm not a huge fan of them, even though Lightning Racer is really fun.
@@ethanhcomposer oh man I haven't been there in 15 years (stopped riding coasters in my early 20's), but I am definitely going there on a weekday a couple weeks after wc's revenge opens!!!
I agree with virtually every point, atmosphere, food, extras, flags, Hersheypark all the way. I’ll take the coasters of CP, but I still love Skyrush and the others.
However one thing that easily keeps Hersheypark out of one of my favorites is the ride operations. I visit a lot of parks, 25 parks in 2021, 23 parks in 2022 and Hershey has some of the slowest moving ride ops around. I don’t expect Disney/Universal or even Cedar Point/Kings Island quick ops, but with how great that park is their lines move very slow. If their ride ops moved with a sense of purpose I would absolutely call Hersheypark one of the best in the county, in my opinion it’s the only thing holding them back from being one of the best.
IoA is my favorite park... when it comes to coasters, all they need is an airtime focused coaster, like a B&M hyper or an airtime based RMC to really round off a strong coaster roundup. I think they could do some really good work with a B&M wing or a flying dinosaur clone too
I think ioa focuses on themed rides to movies and HP i dont really know what they can theme a bnm hyper too even tho it would be sick their main focus is theming yk
are you doing a new top 25 for next year cuz I need your opinion on ur top 25
Hershey would be way better if its staff was halfway competent and they didn’t close Skyrush as soon as a single water molecule drops from the stratosphere. Until then no way is it even a top 5 park in the US
The staff part is 100% true, that is absolutely a liability to Hershey being top notch. Their weather policy is while inconsistent pretty casual, the rides they do close for "any" precip I mostly understand, Skyrush poor brake run design makes it nearly incapable of running wet, the drive tires struggle to move the train, "same thing happens in cold", any temps below 50 the train will spin on those tires because of the terrible brake run design, I assume too flat. 1 visit this year I was in line for great Bear and the skies just opened up and instead of closing they just announced attention riders of great Bear you will get soaked on this ride please be aware, clearly we were quite aware😆. Fahrenheit,Bear, Lightning racer, Comet a couple other coasters and mostly every non coaster will stay open unless the rain really gets out of hand
What about disney, like I know it is not the best thrill but as he said it also comes down to heming layout and food wich is all disney does very good. Just saying-
Gonna be hard to consider especially with their prices. You're not going to attract a huge demographic who can't afford to go there for less rides.
Cedar Point is in my opinion one of the most OVERRATED parks in the world, I went for the first time this year and I think Kings Island, Alton Towers, IOA, and Dollywood are way better, you can make arguments for parks like Carowinds, BGT, and KD being better. Cedar Point is still really good, but way overhyped.
Kings Dominion doesn't come close to Cedar Point. Since getting rid of Volcano: the Blast Coaster IMHO the park hasn't been the same. Its only good coasters are Intimidator 305 which pales to Millennium Force, Orion & Fury 325 in the giga coaster department, Twisted Timbers & Dominator.
@@marquessmith7428 I said you could make an argument for KD being better, overall CP is better but I305 is the second best giga, but Orion and Mille are still both fantastic.
*operations and crowd levels have joined the chat*
I would love for Hershey to get some higher intensity thrill flat rides, replace Claw with Discovery, put in an Air Race, Screaming Swing, Sky Fly, Endeavor, etc.
I think they are getting a new flat ride. We think that it is a screaming swing
Hersheypark mite be getting a new height intensity flat ride
My main issue with Hershey is that it’s park layout is bad. There are a lot of dead ends and people get stuck in the front of the park and leave the back of the park abandoned (Wildcats revenge will probably fix that tho)
Cedar point is way better
Happy thanksgiving my fellow coaster enthusiasts
I haven’t been to Hershey, however, I have been to Cedar point and I would probably love Hershey
Update: I have been to Hershey and it was amazing
The guests at Hersheypark are amazing, the people there are really nice.
I think CP has the better atmosphere, it's so beautiful and you can even go for a walk on the beach. But Hershey is great too, love how things are crammed in, although it's really stupid how that came to be necessary and the entrance layout etc. The Point is also a victim of its own success, can be an ordeal even before talking about how far away it is. HP is also getting more crowded, but you still might have a better time there, or even further southeast.
bro i’m going there in aug
I dunno man. I kind of disagree with this take. I have never been to Hersheypark, which I know kind of discredits my points, but I still think Cedar Point is a great park, and it’s hard to see another one topping it. However, one bias I had is that I had the Fast Pass for Cedar Point, whereas you didn’t which may have impacted your ability to really slow the pace of your visit.
1. I really like Millie. I got a front row ride, and It was just perfect. It has the best view from actually on the roller coaster from any coaster I’ve been on. The station music is great, the ride is smooth and intense. Millie is extremely close in quality to Steel Vengeance for me.
2. I think Cedar Point was extremely beautiful. The beautiful views of Lake Erie and the pond around Iron Dragon were mesmerizing.
3. I don’t really like overly sweet desserts that much.
4. I think that with everything operating, Cedar Point was a much better coaster lineup.
5. The Weather on my Cedar Point trip was immaculate. 72 Fahrenheit, No wind. This is just a bias thing for my visit, not an actual point against Hersheypark, as I’m sure the weather there is better on average.
I know I shouldn’t draw conclusions before I go to Hersheypark, and I do think it will be amazing. However, from my visit to Cedar Point, it’s hard to picture any park beating it.
If they get a Giga, it'll literally be a new Cedar Point
It'll be tough to fit a giga with Hersheypark's tight layout unless they somehow expand the grounds.
Babe wake up, coastoons posted a new video
If it is I’ll be proud
Well done. Although I haven’t been to either park and I’ve only stood outside of hershey park in 2019 before chocolate town. I would have to agree!🎉 congrats
Tbh I think both are super good parks, but with Hershey being the park I went to when I was 5 and my first major coaster was comet. It got me scared, but I am riding a giga every 2 weeks. I think cedar point is more beautiful and have better rides but Hershey has the nostalgia for me. I can’t really decide which is better, but I give cp the slight increase, mainly because steel vengeance is there, I didn’t ride iron qwazi.
Dollywood beats them, or really any park in the US, for atmosphere and theming. I'd place Dollywood above Hershey in my overall park rankings
I just don't see anything 4 rides beating ( forbidden journey, hagrid's, hulk velocicoaster)
And don't get me started with Epic universe
Magic mountain has a better lineup than both ngl. Not a magic mountain, cedar point, or Hersheypark fanboy just giving my opinion objectively
Steve > Wildcat's Revenge
Don't even need to explain this one
Maverick > Skyrush
Just the more aggressive and violent version of skyrush
Magnum > Candymonium
The better hyper with a mix of floater and crazy ejector
Dragster > Storm Runner
Launch is punchier, better restraints, fast af, and insane tophat
Valravn = Farenheit
Farenheit's layout is slightly better but those restraints are trash, also it's much scarier diving 200 feet and going into these massive disorienting inversions
Raptor > Great bear
Has all of great bear's snappy elements and more, and just contains more intense elements
Blue streak < Comet
They both have ejector but blue streak is just shorter and rougher
Laff track = Wild mouse
Their really just the same but Laff track is just in the dark and has theming
There's no real answers Hershey park has for Millenium Force, gatekeeper, Rougaro, and Gemini
Lineups honestly don't really compare here
For flat rides CP is just better
Power tower > Hershey's triple tower
It's everything Hershey's triple tower is but better, and with a space shot
Windseeker > Kissing tower
The view for windseeker alone just feels stunning, and you really feel free with these rides
Flat rides is another w for CP
As for atmosphere, I gotta give it to CP, the whole peninsula feeling is just crazy. Even driving up to the park just feels grand, it's pretty insane. Especially when you can take a fricking BOAT to CP. Walking through the park really just feels like a palace but with rides. You have the on site hotel giving you an amazing view out on Lake Erie, the coasters dominating the skyline, and just the sheer mass of the park.
I will give the win to Hershey park for the food and dark rides since Cedar Point doesn't have any answers to either, but every other category is beaten out by Cedar Point.
The fact how hershey park was a family theme park that casually turned into what might be the best park in the us is crazy, 1-2 decades ago it was nowhere near the best park, nowadays times have really changed!
Hersheypark will never be better than CP. The operating calendar is very short and the hours are disappointing. No Halloween / fall fest, so no real opportunity to go and ride when the weather is more temperate. Steel Vengeance and Maverick are the best. They (Hersheypark) aren't part of a chain so no season meal plan or season drink plan. It's way out of the way location wise for most so no real point in getting a season pass there. It's a single independent park so no multi-park perks. Putting a crappy B&M hyper Candymonium over Millie is absolutely ridiculous. Hersheypark never open past 10PM. Just ridiculous. It's a glorified family park with a few bucket list coasters. Family park will never stack up to CP. Hersheypark is worth a trip. But it's not marathonable like going to CP 22 times in 2022 counting Halloweekends.
I'm definitely gonna go back there eventually
Zoo America is actually a real full sized zoo that included with your Hershey Park admission btw
in my rankings...
3. Stormrunner
5. Maverick
7. Skyrush
8. Steel Vengeance
so yeah, gimme Hershey...Gemini is a better racing coaster than Lightning Racer tho
Cedar Point isn't even the best Cedar Fair park. King's Island destroys Cedar Point imo
Hershey Park is the ultimate park period. I wish they would increase the launch speed a little and the ride time by at least 15 seconds on the Storm Runner (wishful thinking). Hershey Park is well managed and very clean. Will be there this summer. Can't wait.
4:43 actually disagree. Cedar point completely dominates the carousel department. you have three antique carousels. including a D.C MULLER, one of only two left in existence, a racing derby, one of 3, and a dentzel menagerie. cedar point is not only the rollercoast, it’s the carousel coast. but hershey has an exquisite PTC carousel, so no complaints there
You lost validity. Raptor claps great bear. Magnum is more comparable to candymonium than millennium. Magnum solos. Sky rush I would say is a fair comparison to millennium and sky rush claps it I won’t lie. Old dragster was better than storm runner as well. Idk if the new version will be though. But cedar point has way more quality coasted than Hershey. Hershey has no answer to rougarou or gatekeeper which are an additional two quality coasters. Also cp is a way better looking park with a better layout and vibe.
You forgot to mention Cedar Point is in Ohio 💀
dawg that’s sus
Hersheypark is the best! ❤
I just don’t agree with a lot of what has been said here. I went to Hershey opening day in 2021, and I found the park as a whole to be an absolute eyesore, besides the area around the entrance. I also didn’t really think any of their coasters were very good. Cedar Point has been my home park my entire life, and I don’t even think it’s the best park, but it still absolutely demolishes Hershey in most aspects. Will say, Hershey’s treats will forever 1-up CP tho.
Sadly the Hershey milkshake was nothing special. Look good, taste eh. Now the milkshake at Universal’s CityWalk that was amazing. The rest of Hershey is great. Sadly people are figuring this out and the crowds can get huge.
I’ve never been to Hershey but as a nicotine addict cedar point kinda sucks. Having one smoking section on a peninsula that long is awful. Any smoke break is an hour plus. When I was a kid people smoked everywhere and that sucks too I just think a second or third small corner should be added. Also operations during Covid sucked, I haven’t gone in a couple years so I don’t know if they improved. Mostly it’s a good park but it’s in Ohio so it has a strong desire to do everything a little sucky.
Yes, IOA is god tier. Ive never been to Hersheypark and while CP is amazing it doesn't really come close to IOA for me. I think the only park in America that could tople it for me is Disneyland
I've been to Hershey a few times with my family and I have to say aside from Disney it's got to be my number 1
W take
i do think cp is better, i do respect your opinion though. and really speaking what above average (not dessert) food does hershey park have? sure you got cp beat in theming but by just accept the fact maverick and steve are the gokus of roller coasters. no matter how much you cant admit it they solo your favorite parks
I’d say Hershey is number 3 in the world, behind CP and MM
No from my experience Hersey park had some of the worst park atmosphere I’d ever experienced I would say six flags park atmosphere is better not to mention would you rather the best rides in the park be incredible and everything else is good or would you rather have slightly better supporting rides and not as many but you also don’t have world class rides so I think cedar point is easily better
Well fan of both born Pennsylvania. I love Hershey, but love Cedar Point. I always agrue Hershey is a top ten thrill park. And overall us awesome. I been over 48 parks
“CP” trying to figure out what that stood for
Didn’t guess cedar point
If you’re talking coaster lineup, it’s in the conversation, but as overall parks, Kings Island, Silver Dollar City, and Islands of Adventure DESTROY Hershey in my opinion.
I personally agree in my opinion that Islands of Adventure and Kings Island beat out Hershey park, but for me I think Silver Dollar city isn't as good as a park. Sure it has good to amazing atmosphere, but I think Sdl has some pathways that lead into a dead end like Hershey park, but I think Sdl has even more confusing layout then Hershey. Sdl has a good theme, better then Hersheys, but I don't really think it has like high Islands theming like some people make it out to be, but neither the less I think Silver Dollar city is still amazing park.
I think a better park then these two is knoebels because knoebels has a better park atmosphere the CP and hershey park and that knoebels has better flat rides then CP and hershey park with them adding bayrne curve and rock o plane. all though both CP and hershey park have a better coaster line up phoenix and twister and flying turns are pretty damn good and their haunted house is the best in the US. And I think the food is better at knoebels then both hershey park and CP.
I’d never take anything over cedar point the only this I have about cedar point is how you have to walk very far to get to one ride to another just cause Hershey has a variety of coasters doesn’t mean it’s good a park has to have atleast one extreme and intense coaster to be good in my opinion and cedar point has 2 of them Hershey only had 1 and that’s just my opinion cedar point will always be better than anything in my opinion
I agree that islands is the best park in USA (even tho I 🇨🇦) and I also have biased
you put up great points and all tho i’m a ohio native and i’ve been to cedar point like 200 times but although i love my home park i can’t disagree with you what you said is fact and i agree with it good video
Hersheypark is basically the Cedar Point of Pennsylvania.
I haven't been there yet, but I hope to visit by 2024 at the earliest.
I love Hershey but wildcats revenge was a let down because it was pretty rough
I have Storm runner over maverick and skyrush over steel vengeance. Skyrush is my #2 with steel vengeance being my #3.
Yeah you do have to explain some of these just making random ride comparisons and saying “Doesn’t need explaining” adds no point to your video
I definitely feel the topics with this video. I live less than 20 minutes from Hersheypark & have worked there for five summers (2005-2009). However, I've also been to Cedar Point five times with the most recent being last year on Memorial Day weekend. While I definitely agree that Hersheypark is the more themed and family oriented park, Cedar Point has more rides that are top end and IMO runs their rides more efficiently and quickly than Hersheypark. I was unhappy with the slow lines considering that I never remembered them being that slow back in the day & with an 11 am to 7 pm park hours in the beginning of the park season. I can understand both sides, but I guess with me having gone there numerous times and worked there, after a while it gets a little boring on some rides. I'm excited for Wildcat's Revenge next year.
This, 1000 times this. The ops at Hershey are incredibly slow, there is no sense of urgency, or theres one train ops when the crowds absolutely justify 2 or more.
Hersheypark is over crowded, over priced everything in the back is jammed together and jt only going to get worse I will stick to knobels anyday
I'mma be honest, the new ride was disappointing. It was basically like sky rush, where as I am more into rolled coasters like the great bear where there are loops
THANK YOU, Hershey is better and it’s my home park so I guess I’m biased but it’s so much better
hershey is already my favorite lmao... now its just more my favorite
park layout alone hershey W hate having to walk 50 miles to get from coaster to coaster
Of course Hersheypark is the best! And I lived here all my life! Sweetest place on earth❤
Another thing not mentioned is Hershey Park Stadium and the Giant Center, where they often host epic events.
Even though I’m six flags biases I think Hershey park is worse then cedar point
