In flying coasters place, I had something in mind from my visit to EG last year. Although it is probably out of the question, a B&M, Intamin, or Morgan hyper station could go in flying coasters place. Where would the coaster be? Well, we were in the parking lot (right by FC) and there are a lot of concrete/tree/plant islands. Perfect place for supports. The coaster could go around the park, especially when the park really isn't big, Lol. EG really just doesn't have a star attraction, unless you count Mind Eraser. Sure, it's fun, but it's just a regular SLC

^I was going to post the same thing sooner or later. I live 3 hours from WoF and I know for a fact I can use it this season. I saw people in other countries posting a picture, and I was like, "WTF? They'll never use it! Give it to someone who WILL!" I hope that whatever happens will happen for the best, as I'm sure it will. It'll be fun to see who wins, and who gets the ticket, whether Emiroo decides to make those two separate because of people's locations.

MAGIC MOUNTAIN FOR FIRST TIMERS

YAY!!! ANOTHER PERSON FROM KANSAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111 BTW, while Superman looks scary, it really isn't. I got off that ride thinking, "WTF? I was scared of that?" Basically the vertical part, you're looking up at the sky and you can't see how far off the ground you are (especially if you're trying to say hi to Superman up at the top). -
THANK YOU for putting WoF up high on your list! Granted you've only listed four parks, it's still great that you listed WoF just under CP. WoF is so underrated. It's small-sized but has some great rides. The staff was amazing as well. Always were positive, seemed to enjoy their jobs, had those little chant things they did before dispatching a ride, and I only saw one cell phone! When I went there last year, I thought that if Patriot wasn't there, something would be missing, and the park wouldn't be complete. Now that Prowler is there, I'm not sure what I'm gonna think

I went to San Antonio back in March. SW and SFFT. Great White is better than Goliath, but they still are great. Yeah, IDK why they added the same coaster that is right down the interstate and just a couple hours away. An invert would be great going off of the cliff. SFFT impressed me so much. Size-wise, it's not too big, which is GREAT, but there is so much in it! It's totally an awesome place! I loved Poltergeists station. They even had furniture on the porch! That coaster was intense. Always gaining speed and maintaining what felt like a constant g-force. The launch wasn't as quick as I'd expected, but still awesome. Rattler sucks. "Rattler" and "fun" should not be in the same sentence. Or paragraph. Or chapter. Or book. Or volume. Or series. Or library. Did you go to SW? Personally, I think that Steel Eel totally beats any coaster that's at SFFT. Most airtime I've had on any coaster.

Worlds of Fun Photo TR - 5/18

I found Patriot to be more forceful than the three B:TR's I've been on Out of the five inverts I've been on, Patriot blows them out of the water. Not just for forces, but for overall ride. -
Didn't they just use the same blueprints from Knott's Silver Bullet with a few minor revisions? Some awesome shots! Thanks! That's what I have heard as well. Seems rather similar to me. It's based off of Talon at Dorney Park. That's what WoF told me in an email a couple years ago. that ride frickin' rocks. You get really close to the ceiling, there's wind, sounds, neon lights. It's a TON of fun!!! EDIT: I now realize you guys were talking about Patriot's station ... Not the layout. My bad!

What works for me (Not sure about other people though) is I put the pictures in MS Paint, and save it as a jpg. It gets it to the right file size. However, I've been uploading my photos straight from my camera to photobucket, instead of uploading them to TPR. Photobucket takes larger sizes.

I passed Adventureland on my way to Chicago once. I could see all the coasters and rides but we didn't go It looks like a nice place that could survive here in Kansas. It kinda makes me think that Wild West World should have tried to be like this. Nice selection of rides, family oriented, great landscaping, etc.

PTR: Worlds of Fun (Now with videos!)
christianscoasters replied to steel's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
My step mom went to WoF these past couple of years during Haunt and enjoyed it a lot because there were hardly any people there. She's very "GP" as well. I'll probably end up going sometime before June 20th or after the 28th (I'll be out of the country on a mission trip then). That is when a lot of my family takes vacations so ... Ya. But my step mom is very anxious to go and wishes she could go today!!! I told her it's best to wait until summer though. She hasn't experienced the true amazing-ness that is Patriot! We'll probably go early June. -

I'm on an acne medication that I've had before, but it takes it away for good. My doctor says occasionally he'll assign a second round but that's all that's needed. I'm on my second round, and my acne-for the most part- is gone. However, the side affects are awful. So far, I've gained weight (More than 5 lbs in a month) and my vision is getting awful, and I have glasses. My computer is about a foot and a half from my eyes, and things on the screen are somewhat blurry. ... Aside from all this, I'm very grateful just to have this medication. -
^You're gettin a little crazy with the "edit" button I think the only thing a mod will do is kick us out of this thread
