Longest Wait Time

Not my wait time, but what I've seen...
I was working Main Street Vehicles during the final days of the Electrical Parade. People would get spots around noon to watch an 8pm show. Wow.

Those days were tough to work.

I waited 1.5 hours for the rocket rods once, god what a waste of time that was. I was so p*** off. That's like waiting for subsonic to give you backup in paintball. (I KID I KID adam)

Oh yeah, the ONE time I got to ride that it had an insanely long line. I must've blocked it out of my memory.

The longest for me is probably... 45 minutes for Indy.
I know it's not long, But I usualy go on weekdays durring school and no one is there.

I once waited almost 90 minutes for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at WDW. Start looping through the queue and when you THINK you're almost there. the line bends around a wall and goes on for about 30 minites more... And, in the middle of summer, those fans they have REALLY don't help...

Never been to WDW and DLR I haven't been there since I was at "senior night" so really I don't remember line

Five hours for Star Tours on opening day...

But a roommate waited overnight for the opening of DCA. Be afraid.

Oh God, I'll never forget waiting for 2 hours to ride Splash Mountain at WDW in 1994. So, this was long before the days of Fastpass. I had never ridden Splash before that point and I didn't particularly have a desire to, but my whole family did and I had no choice. It was also just before park closing, so it was the last thing we could do that night.

I thought the drop was cool, but having never seen Song of the South (for what should be obvious reasons to Disney buffs), I really didn't get anything that was going on, so I did not feel like it was worth the wait.

It's still one of my favorite attractions now, but I wouldn't wait 2 hours for it!

Hmmm...I think the longest I have ever waited was 85 minutes for Tower of Terror before Fastpass. When I visited WDW last year, Test Track was a 135 minute wait. The longest I've EVER had to wait for a ride was at a non-Disney park (Spiderman for 2.5 hours at Islands of Adventure).

I think the longest I've ever waited was an hour

It was test track, that ride has major lightning/technical/popularity to throughput issues, which added up to something insane, probably 2-2.5 hours, usually my family does the get there early run to popular stuff at the back of the park, work was back then hang out, usually we pratically walk on to the popular rides.

Wow only 3 people mention Rocket Rods. Well when my family forced me to go on it the wait was three hours. Watching the same movie in the circle-vision theater 3-4 times can make you kinda dissy. But it seems I have nothing on some of your waits.

Probably an hour for Indiana Jones back in 1997. What with Fast Pass now and all, we won't wait for any ride longer than 1/2 hour.

By the way, my husband and kids liked it, I just thought it was OK.

Not much tolerance for waits and we're spoiled with Fastpass -- I thinkthe longest we've ever waited was 60 minutes for Space Mountain a few years ago.
