mightbeawannabe Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 And once again every airport in the world is nicer than LAX. Robb & Elissa-Haven't you been to KCI?? It totally SUCKS and has next to nothing and is the most plain and nondescript airport evar! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electerik Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Did anyone actually do MagiQuest? We've only done the one in Pigeon Forge, but we quite enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six Flags Enthuseast Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 "I'm so hungry I can eat at Arby's!" One of my all-time favorite Simpsons quotes. I thought it was 'If I can keep down Arbys, I can keep down you!' when Homer ate that radioactive goo. Maybe both? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Robb & Elissa-Haven't you been to KCI?? It totally SUCKS and has next to nothing and is the most plain and nondescript airport evar! Well, yeah, that's expected from a crappy, low-volume midwest airport - not a place like LAX which is one of the biggest, busiest airports on earth. LAX sucks.

nursemelis374 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Those captions from IKEA were the funniest I have seen in a long time! Hope you guys keep having a great time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Since I have two IKEAs within a good hour's drive from my home, I am continually jaded about the place. Rarely go there, if ever. But then.... TPR always makes an IKEA visit more..... interesting, lol. And FUN!!! Great start-up to this tour, Robb. And HOW MANY Credits does the KTums have, now?

alpengeist04 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Those captions from IKEA were the funniest I have seen in a long time! I agree. Also, any Indy reference automatically makes the trip report awesome. And HOW MANY Credits does the KTums have, now? I'm figuring she'll pass me sometime in 2012.

Chroniq Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 That "where in the world are Rob and Elissa" reference brings back to memory simpler times..Where one could just enjoy themselves trying to figure out the location of others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golfie Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Awesome! I just visited the mall as well last week for the first time since the big revamp two years ago. The halfpipe coaster was definitely worth the 6-hour drive alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Johnson Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) Theme Park Review's Middle America Tour continues.... Day One: Mall of America, Nick Universe, Group dinner at Buca's, TPR's International Snack Exchange, and a very special guest - Leslie Hall from Yo Gabba Gabba and http://www.lesliehall.com/ Leslie Hall welcomes Theme Park Review! Theme Park Review is at Nick Universe!!! We will start the first official day of the Middle America Tour with ERT on Spongebob Squarepants Rock Bottom Plunge! Rock Bottom Plunge is awesome! Part of the thrill is feeling like you will hit the roof of the mall! We love Spongebob! And we even had ERT on Avatar...showing Intamin some love! Ghostblasters...yup. "Blasting away at those evil ghosts!" Next up was Nick Universe's latest vomit machine...Brain Surge! This ride was seriously amazing insane! Empty seat shot!!! KidTums new career path...truck driver! You guys ready to spin? I really wish Knotts still had their tumbler. Sad and pathetic!!! Yay! Pepsi Ripsaw Orange Streak coaster thing! Hanno is always happy! (although he kind of looks a bit constipated!) Bryan and Texas in training for the TPR Japan trip! Awesome that they have the drum game here! KidTums new career path... Drummer!!! Do you recognize these little drum characters? Now you know where TPR got our forum emoticons from! This place sure knows how to pack in a ton of rides. Swiper, no swiping!!! Omg! We just got teleported to Euro Nick Universe! Oh, no! Elissa says thumbs down to McDonalds??? Why??? Oh! That's why!!! Nasty Pepsi!!! Chairswings with backward seats!!! Kiddie balloon ride!!! Ghostly Gangplank is a ropes course that goes all the way up to the roof of the park! Trust me this thing is tall!!! The "plank" us at the very top where you walk across a small rope to get to the other side. I spy a pineapple! Did we mention how the rides come really close to the roof??? The log flume kicks ass! And it goes "sit down! Sit down!" Just like at Knott's. Tumbler is awesome!!! We had an awesome day at Mall of America and Nickelodeon Universe! And the TPR Middle America Tour is off!! It's time for our TPR welcome dinner! Buca di Beppo started with a kitchen tour!! TPR takes over Buca's! This is my favorite Buca's photo. Are they Eating or Vomiting pasta? To answer EMAIL DAN!!! mrt0ad13@aol.com tell him "eating" or "vomiting" It's like something out of an ACE Convention. Now that Bryan is a born again vegetarian, salad is all he gets. No!!!! Bryan! Don't do it!!! Allison! You must save Bryan from the evil meat! Text him right now! "Bryan I will eat your meat so don't eat that meat!" "Um...mommy...why is there no sauce?" I see... NIPPLE!!!!! At Buca's, even the "pooper" is themed! If Danny Devito eats here, this place HAS to be cool! "So...how many coaster credits do you have?" The pope table...VERY serious! Here's one for the men... ...and one for the gays. Thank you Buca's!!! Dinner was awesome!!! Bucas gave the nerdiest TPR members pocket protectors! TPR has entered the state of IOWA! Watching some Yo Gabba Gabba on the bus! We are watching Leslie Hall on Yo Gabba Gabba! The TPR international snack exchange has begun! Divv once again has enough Doritos to kill a small animal. Kit Kat's from Japan! A box of...boogers!?!?? Yeah double deckers!!! That is a LOT of random snacks!!! Divv is happy! Japanese Doriotos!!! Dave! No underage drinking! "Don't worry...it's only Mr. Pibb." Hey TPR! We have a special guest! Leslie Hall from Yo Gabba Gabba came to hang out! Leslie stretched her body around TPR members is the most unusual ways! MOA144.bmp Our TPR gays LOVED Leslie!!! MOA145.bmp "Leslie...will you marry me?" Kyle had his way with her... Christiana has met her match!!! Joey wants some of that "musk!" "OMG!

CoasterWarriors Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) It looks like it is off a good start! What's the date for Wisconsin Dells? Couple friends and I are hitting the Dells the day after SFGAm with TPR on the 12th. Perhaps I will finally reach to my #100th credit somewhere in the Dells? Can't wait to see everyone on the August 13th! Edited August 6, 2010 by CoasterWarriors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
