From @BGTNation:

Thats great news! I love how BGT does passholder previews.

I know I will be there for the extra hour!

You and me both man.

I remeber when they did that with Sheikra and there was no wait at all! I'm excited.

It was epic, but unlike Cheetah Hunt if I remember correctly Sheikra was everyday for the month of June from 8-9 AM not just select days.

How is that a pass member preview if the ride is scheduled to open this month?

Well they are giving pass holders an hour head start, it doesn't say "preview" but I am still hoping for one.

Just a heads up for all of the locals. Tampa radio station 97X (97.1 FM) is giving away tickets for Busch Gardens at 2:40 PM EST today.

Just got my BGT/SW Fun Tracker flyer in the mail and its says to
"Look for your special Pass member invitation, coming soon!" on the Cheetah Hunt page.

I just saw my first Cheetah Hunt commercial on TV about 2 minutes ago. I believe it was on ABC but I could be wrong. In my opinion, it was really cheesy/fake/bad. It featured a car with a what appeared to be a family in it riding along the tracks going at a ridiculously unrealistic speed and a cheetah running alongside it for a shot or two.

Has anyone else seen the commercial or any other yet?

 

[dmkrc5]

I just saw the commercial, besides the cheesy train animation with the people, I thought it was awesome. I felt that it had the same feel as the Manta teaser commercial.

Is that hour early admission only good for the platinum card holders, or the regular one/two year pass as well (not fun card)?

 

[dmkrc5]

When they did it with Sheikra it was good for all passholders, since I was allowed to go on and I had a fun card, lets hope that doesn't change.

Wow, that was cheesy! Thanks for posting it, though!

Platinum and regular pass holders.

From the BGT FB page
"Fun Card is not valid at this special pass member event."

I think the Platinum Pass holders should get an extra 30 minutes. We should also be taken there in rickshaws or some type of wheeled device to separate us from the People who park in regular parking. Yes I am joking. Well I would like the 30 minutes.

If you wanna see more Baby Cheetah, check out the Tonight Show with Jay Leno tonight.

If you visit the park today or tomorrow, you won’t see Kasi the baby cheetah and his puppy pal, Mtani at Jambo Junction. Why? They have embarked on a cross-country trip!

You can watch them on Tuesday as they make their national TV debut. Julie Scardina and animal ambassadors from SeaWorld & Busch Gardens will be on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on May 10.

The lineup of exotic animals Julie will present will also include Asian small clawed otters, several baby owls and three different species of lizards.

May 21st would be a great day to be in the park.
