It is cheap to get in, but feel nickel and dime'd all day long. The nice rides are really nice (very impressive roller coasters) but it is disappointing to see how poorly most things are taken care of. Most of the food stands are really dirty and not kept up well. Paint is atrocious and cleanliness is out of the question. Cups fall on the ground and are left all day. It is like it is the end of the season and they don't care anymore. The soda stands are the worst. Everything is sticky and looks like it is rarely cleaned. There are bees EVERYWHERE. I have been here about 3 hours and I have been stung, as has my son. It is a bit ridiculous. Maybe if they cleaned things and treated for the bees, it would be a little more enjoyable. I have lived in Charlotte for 12 years and this is only the second time coming here, and this is just because I had to come today for a corporate function. I doubt we will be back again. I'd rather go to Disney World once or twice a year than come here anytime that we want.
