Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
xdisneyfan replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
There are more than a few people who wished that exchange would make sense at Disneyland. -
So, this wasn't the first report of apparent poor judgment or questionable behavior by ride operators. I'm for erring on the side of safety. From the information above, I would think the ride should be taken out of operation until the scope and cause of the problem was determined and it was resolved. Anyone report an issue you saw on a ride to guest relations or a manager?

some photos from WCB 2009
xdisneyfan replied to xdisneyfan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
a few more photos I told you we should have turned left at Albuquerque! self-explanatory: the rest of the story self-explanatory "Others may think I'm mad, but I guarantee it - one day, we will have ERT on Angel's Flight!" It isn't my fault that Six Flags didn't buy the minoxidil patent. Whod'a thunk it? Free food attracts a crowd. -

Photo TR: Celtic Woman live at "The Dunk" Prov. RI
xdisneyfan replied to pete4winds's topic in Random, Random, Random
I've enjoyed watching the PBS specials, but personnel changes have definitely lowered the pulchritude punch of Celtic Woman, most especially the departure of Meav. Meav Ni Mhaolchath -

Six Flags Magic Mountain Terminator Salvation: The Ride
xdisneyfan replied to robbalvey's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I had no idea - is it just one ride, or do others at SFMM have SR? And, I have to ask, just what are they trying to tell us with that Lysol ad? -
The Tatsu Campout Picture Posting Thread
xdisneyfan replied to xdisneyfan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Back by unpopular demand ... This will come in handy if you ever need to locate Magic Mountai or urricane Harbor. Leave it to an ACEr to ruin my composition! I have no reason to doubt that this transaction was completely above board. This caption is second to none in its patriotism. For some strange reason, I'm thankful that this one is out of focus. Family Guy looked slightly better in person. gratuitious moon shot gratuitous coaster shot -

You gotta get up awfully early on the right side of the galaxy to scoop Gordon Shumway. IMHO, $15 parking is nothing to celebrate (unless you avoid paying). Seek Bugs, and ye shall find the truth (of where thou hath parked). I just wanted to remember what I didn't have to shell out. NO COMMENT Please keep your arms and legs on the train at all times. No, this didn't cost me $22. It appears that someone missed a cue. In a clandestine meeting, America's top strategists discuss Iran's nuclear program.

You may take it as a boast or an indictment, but in a few hours, the esteemed members of this board managed to bring both coasters to a grinding halt. Your humble correspondent was an eyewitness to the first incident, and a participant in the second one. Tatsu was the Little Train That Couldn't when it failed to make it all the way up its ascent. It and its riders were stuck for several minutes until the train was given an extra boost to send it on its way. Revolution's brakes worked just a little too well heading into the station, so that the train stopped prematurely. It continued on into the station shortly thereafter.

Actually, as I wrote previously, I do that all the time on coasters, and it's never been an issue. However, in this case, the rule is clearly NO CAMERAS on the ride, and we need to respect that. How close are lockers to Tatsu? My concern is that there may be so many people storing items that there aren't enough lockers to go around. Appointing a designated TPR camera rack person seems like a good idea. From what I've read here, it doesn't appear that someone would have to sit the ride out entirely. The job could simply be handed off from one person to another as different groups board.

Photo TR: Entire State of Kentucky
xdisneyfan replied to ParkTrips's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
"$11 for a large Coke and a slice" Is Kentucky Algonquin for "rip-off pizza joints"? Tell 'em to put in Little Caesars - $5 for a large pizza (with the corresponding quality, natch). -
PTR: Universal Studios Hollywood
xdisneyfan replied to Wes's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
You wouldn't have liked it if you were in the preceding tram the first time I visited. My tram had to bypass the Red Sea, and could only wonder how that other tram got stuck in the middle of all that water.
