text: Personally this is not for me but I am giving it three stars because I realize I was able to ride this for Free due to the Veterans day special they were offering to give Active Duty Veterans free Ticket for them plus a guest which is such a awesome deal If I had paid full price for my ticket I imagine I would of left with a worse taste in my mouth because this thing is honestly very slow and not nearly as intimate as I had imagined The pods are roomy because they do not JAM it packed with people but it includes very little space to sit and our pod had a little toddler that ended up dumping my purse everywhere when my friend was taking our photo The view is truly amazing and I think if you are going to pony up the it is worth doing the ride that is at night If I had to ever ride this again though I would definitely go with the VIP ride that includes open bar because at least I would feel like I was doing something I am more of a fast paced personality and I do not really relax and take in the view all that well especially with their TV monitors blaring that annoying guys voice with fun trivia facts Overall everyone that worked that evening was super friendly and I did end up buying the photo at the end because it was a pretty good special they were running for three photos it was plus the frame Since my ticket was free I figured why not especially since I do not plan on rushing back to the wheel anytime soon
