    We tried to go to Knott’s today for my son’s 13th birthday but, it was extremely crowded with guests. It took us one hour and ten minutes to commute from Beach Blvd/La Mirada Blvd to the front of Knott’s drop off. But, the line to get into the park zig-zag’d from the front section and all the way to the entrance. The back of the line proceeded to go all the way down toward the outside shops, passed the restaurant, underneath the walkway of Ghostrider, and through the parking lot. It was crazy. I’ve never seen it so busy. The craziest thing is there wasn’t any indication that they were going to close the park so people stood in line, hoping and waiting it would move along. This up-to-date tracker needs to have a live virtual view of what packed looks like so we can see it without having to contribute to the massive traffic congestion we had today. With having one of our guest buying a day pass, Knott’s should be able to refund the cost of the ticket. It’s the only fair thing to do.

    It was absolutely horrible! As a disabled person I was run over by multiple groups of people. I only got to do 2 mazes all night and I was so sore after that I was in tears. I cried the whole next day due to how bad the experience was. There wasn’t even room to walk because it was so packed shoulder to shoulder, literally. I will never go back and neither will my family. Even my teenagers hated it.

    Park was packed to the brim. 3 hour wait on Ghostrider. Forecast was wildly inaccurate.

    This place as many as all other so called “theme parks” are useless now for any type of family fun due to limitless tickets sales and limitless visitors as locals and folks from land far away. Feel sorry for future generations as this kind of circumstances are not changing in foreseen future. NOT build for that amount of prole in 21st century.

    only come on Monday-Friday or Sunday mornings if you want the best experience. I say Sunday mornings because some people go to church and they haven’t left church yet.

    If you come on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday during the school year you can go on the same amount of rides in 2 hours as you would go on if you went on a Saturday.
