This new system was extremely popular with consumers, as it eliminated additional ticket fees and purchase hassles. Guests paid for admission to the park and could go on any ride in the park. Magic Mountain, a similar theme park, opened about 60 miles away with a single admission system. But then a new admission model came on the scene in the early 1970s. While not always popular, this fee-for-ride system remained in place for almost 20 years. If a guest wanted to go on more "E" rides than they had in their admission ticket book, they were forced to purchase additional tickets for an additional fee. The "D" and "E" tickets were added to the admission coupon book a few years later when better rides were introduced, with the "E" tickets reserved for the most exciting rides. This also served to keep the lines shorter on the more popular rides. These tickets corresponded to various attractions and encouraged guests to spread their time across different levels of rides. Each guest received a book of coupons (tickets) with their paid admission, which included a few tickets of each type.
