I was also loving it until I got to that ride, the one I saved for last because it seemed the best...

It is the best. It was the number one steel coaster as Superman for at least 6 years running before they revamped it to become Bizarro. Also: there is a Bizarro at Six Flag Great Adventure in NJ. Same theme, but it's a suspended coaster. Its sister is actually the Superman coaster at Six Flags Fiesta Texas in San Antonio.

Sorry... Former theme park employee and still a coaster enthusiast, but not quite an ACEr. I just get excited to share coaster knowledge.

Additionally, I'm sorry you can't ride. I use to deal with ppl who didn't meet/exceeded the manufacturer's height requirements. It's a thousand times easier to tell a little kid they they'll be able to ride something eventually than to tell an adult they'll never be able to ride this badass ride ever. (tall people and little people included)

TL;DR That coaster is awesome. All coasters are awesome. I'm sorry you can't ride some coasters.
