The park is offering a cool package for those of you who are wanting to try out The Joker early before it opens to the general public. Six Flags Over Texas is calling it the "First 2 Ride VIP Package" and it will be valid for Wednesday, May 17th.

The park has uploaded an official video showing off the process of building The Joker as well as informing us that the ride will open to the public on Saturday, May 20th.

Join us in our very first Trip Report Vlog from Six Flags Over Texas as we discuss The Joker construction, Judge Roy Scream retracking, brand new paint around the park, improved landscaping, and numerous other changes for the 2017 season.

This virtual reality coaster will introduce riders to the device’s passthrough camera functionality that creates awareness of their surroundings through their Samsung Gear VR headsets. Complex gameplay is part of this ride which is also a world’s first!

Yesterday, Six Flags Over Texas officially topped of The Joker and installed the final piece of track. Though construction is moving along more rapidly than normal, the park is still stating that we can expect a late-Spring opening.

Six Flags Over Texas, the Thrill Capital of Texas, and Warner Bros. Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, announces the opening of its 13th and most maniacal roller coaster to date, an all-new free-fly coaster called, The Joker.

In 2005, SFOT Source began as one of the most comprehensive, unofficial guides to Six Flags Over Texas that could be found on the internet. Unfortunately, we closed back in 2008. However, we are back with a completely revamped site and hope to add even more features to come.
