It seems that a lot of people are dropping out. My original time was going to be around 1AM central time. It has now moved up to 11PM!!
-
I understand the addiction. I just texted my roomate to log onto my pc and get me in line. By the time I get home from work I should be near my time! She called me a freak!!!!
If it makes you feel any better, I was thinking of calling my wife to do the same thing!
-
^I was wondering the same thing. Kind of like passing up what you know you've won for what behind door #2.
-
I also just moved up 5 spots!
-
^Only 244 more turns before its mine!
-
sorry, just got a little distracted..
So as her shirt says, was she shaking it?
-
^ I noticed the Phoenix/Griffon mix-up also. But at least it was a mythical creature!
-
Great report Hanno! That was just an excellent day all around.
-
^She looks so grown up in that picture. I had to look twice to make sure that was her!
I want to point out that in that video of KT on the Butterfly she had been fast asleep roughly 30 seconds before being strapped in!So that would explain why her voice sounded that way.
-
Awesome pictures again Hanno!
I noticed one thing with the Nascar Speedpark coaster, aren't you supposed to turn left in Nascar?
And I couldn't believe that Zorbing would be that fun! It was a blast. And, we got to take the bus ride to and from the Zorbing place backwards, thanx to our excellent bus driver!

Most of the time they are just kind of fun - but at Coney Island a couple of years ago - that crazy Brooklyn carney had the ride set to PSYCHOTIC. I swear I thought I would die.
The pirate ship was pretty wicked also. I swore the little kid that was riding in the row in front of us was going to come flying out seat!
And the one ride that surprised me (in a good way) was Jack Rabbit at Kennywood. A little wooden coaster running a pink train can't be that bad, can it? We sat in the back row and got the biggest surprise of airtime going down into that ravine!
-
Excellent pictures (as always) Hanno!
I was really surprised with Dollywood. I've heard about how everyone liked it so much, but I didn't think that it would have been this good! The whole day was just a great day. From ERT on and Arrow that kicked butt in the morning to what I think was the best meal a park had given us, to a crazy ERT session on Thunderhead in the rain!
I so want to go back soon.

Weird. I only get the option for Small or XX-Large.
-
Excellent report Chuck.
And you might be able to get a job with Ghost Hunters. There seems to be one riding Renegade!
-
You still have Large in the 90 Degrees shirt? The TPR store isn't listing it. It didn't show it last week either, or I would have ordered that one with the ClubTPR coupon.

Well I've procrastinated enough, time to post my Bag-O-Crap.
The new phone books are here, the new phone books are.... err.... my Bag-O-Crap is here, my Bag-O-Crap is here!
Lets see what crap my mailman has been hauling around.
Its ClubTPR Pen's cousin, Sprint!
And of course, the original, often immitated, never duplicated, TPR pen!
Crap from California, Florida, and Germany!
Some Crap that I can wear!
A Kennywood postcard and some Japanese Thomas stickers (I think).
And I have no idea what this crap is!! Chris said they were clog pins. I'm going to have to take her word on that.
And something to get that crappy taste out of your mouth.

The main reason I went to TL in 2000 was just to swim with the sharks! I went first thing on a chilly morning, so there was hardly anyone there, and I just kept going around.
-
^I do believe that there was at least one other one.
-
Go on, ride the backseat of the Galaxie! I dare you!
I know what you mean! I rode in the back seat during the 2007 Midwest trip. I thought I was going to fly out of the car!
-
Who's flipping the birds to the sign back there? lol
Here is the copy of the group photo I have.
And here is the culprit!
-
Actually - did KD put a trim at the bottom of the first drop like Carowinds? I still really disliked Hurler at Carowinds, but it was at least ridable without a visit to the first aid tent afterwards.
Yes they did. Thank goodness! Chris and I rode in the front seat and it wasn't that bad. Still had to prepare yourself for the turns, but the straight aways were good.
-
Nice!
Did Mr. Freeze get a new paint job?
It got painted a couple of years ago in the 2008/2009 off season.

It wasn't the e-stop that caused the injury, it was from getting hit with the inflatable.
From The Virginia Gazette
JAMES CITY -- An inflatable prop at Busch Gardens dislodged in high winds Thursday night and flew in the path of the Griffon rollercoaster.According to WVEC-13, workers at the theme park were deflating the item when a gust of wind carried toward the coaster. It struck one of the moving ride's cars.
Several riders were treated at the park. A spokesman told the television station that five guests asked to be taken to a hospital

Nice trip report! Glad to see you liked the back of EK. I was surprised when you were told to ride the front cause I think the best ride is in the back. On Easter day, my wife and I rode it 21 times in a row!
And by the way, that big orange thing in Gossamer from Looney Tunes.

Something must have happened. I checked right before I headed to work at 10 (central time) and it had a 5 and a half hour wait. But good for all of you that ended up getting a good place in line!
