GMAN962 replied to robbalvey's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I laughed...SO HARD at that.... Ok....sorry, I thought it was hilarious. Anyway, great TR! Sounds like fun! -Mike -
A few gift cards, candy, and some dollar coins. Oh yeah, and a $2 bill, too! I was happy yesterday! -Mike "Happy Late Easter!" J

Technically, if they're know it alls, then they're right. Because they KNOW that. ...and they're right. -
Goliath at SFMM Deemed 'Unsafe'
GMAN962 replied to PKI Jizzman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
They would never do that, though. In the report, it says itself "All rides at the park are up to date with the latest safety standards, and regulations." Plus, a ride can't be deemed unsafe based on complaints. -Mike -
Goliath at SFMM Deemed 'Unsafe'
GMAN962 replied to PKI Jizzman's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I saw that this morning. They say it's unsafe because of the brain aneurysms. It's completely safe, as far as I know. -
B&M vs Intamin
GMAN962 replied to alpengeistdude321's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Eh...I"ve only been on ONE Intamin, that's good, at least. I like it a lot. Intamin seems to have better forces, and B&M has less rattling, usually. I'm gonna have to say it's a tie. -

That doesn't mean ANYTHING. As it was said, apparently all Intamins are like that, AND they did a pull-through. Of course the train has been there. -Mike "They Might Have Started Testing, Though!" J -
Height Limit Horror Story
GMAN962 replied to hbclarendon's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
You should have taken your shoes off! That would have worked! But on a serious note, it's better to be safe than sorry. One life can mean a lot in this world. -Mike -
Knott's, Disneyland and SFMM
GMAN962 replied to Mr. Shake's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, schools in our city get out I think l the 22-24 of June. Around there. Go early in June, and you should be good, if you have to go in June. Probably the earlier the better....but after spring break! -Mike -
Ok, today, we went to our youth group, "The Underground". They had a sign on the front door saying "this way to The Underground." We follow all of the signs, which leads us many ways through the church, and eventually, we're led outside of the church, and part of the way down the street. We get a sign that says "This way", so we go up to the house that it says to go to, it says "knock on the front door!" So we go up and knock, and in a minute, we turn around, and a sign says "You fools! Ignore all signs, and go to the normal meeting place!" So then we get there, and we're the first people there to our surprise. I must admit, they did a great job. -Mike

Photo TR: Coney Island 4/1/07
GMAN962 replied to CycloneMan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
The fact that there's a DragonForce shirt in this TR makes it automatically awesome. Great band. Oh yeah, and nice photo TR. Is Cyclone rough? I know if can't be as bad as SFMM's was, and Ghostrider, though. -Mike -
I haven't really been tricked by anybody, but here goes the best one I can think of... Tatsu finally slid down the mountain... -Mike

Wow! I would NOT ride that. I'd be more scared on that than Wes was on the Paratrooper at the ghettofair. -Mike

^Ok, you just need to chill out. When testing comes around, I'm sure that it'll show up in this thread, and/or make the front page. Be patient. -Mike -
Photo TR: SFMM 3/25/07
GMAN962 replied to GMAN962's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Hmm...interesting! I thought it was a mistake, since you'd think that it would be a sort of entrance sign for the area. Oh well! -Mike -
Jeeze...can't Jackson realize that he isn't really liked anymore!? It'd be more of an eyesore than a statue, IMHO. -Mike

^That would be good, actually. "Make an Ad for a "TPR" version of a ghetto parking lot fair! -Mike

Photo TR: SFMM 3/25/07
GMAN962 replied to GMAN962's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yeah, we got on back seat Goliath. Our friend and I kept saying Goliath like it was all epic, and scary. It's really not bad... -Mike -
Ok....so yeah, we went to SFMM yesterday. It was a friend's birthday...so yeah. It was a lot of fun. Anyway, here are the photos, since nobody reads this anyway! We're going to SFMM, yay! We took the truck route part of the way. Thank God, because there was traffic build up on the regular route. There was a highway patrol officer leading traffic, as we saw from across the separate. Here we are! Hey X! We got there just after opening, so we weren't the first people in the park. We had to get our friend's season pass processed, anyway. We couldn't have gone to X, or Tatsu anyway. In true SFMM leaving gates open spirit, I had to take this picture. Gate keeping guests from getting into Flashback (Which we could have just jumped over) was open and unlocked. We didn't go in, though. So while our friend was getting his pass processed, we went over to Scream! ...but on the way there, I had some business to take care of... Guess who won.... Yeah...I won. Finally, we get to Scream! That was a long walk. Rode Colossus after that. Those are the long lines I like to see! OMG GEEKY COASTER SHOT! Rode Goliath, then Revolution. I don't get this sign...I can't ride, according to this sign. "Height Limit? or Height Requirement" Yep...it's a loop. But it's not a vertical loop! (Derek) Finally got to ride Ninja again...I love it, and it looks great, now! We rode The Ridder next! Still a fun ride... We did not get to ride Freefall today, even though it was open. Friend didn't want to ride it. After Riddler, we ate lunch. I had Papa John's cheese bread, and a liter of water. Hey look! It's another picture of me. Next up? Batman! Danananananana....ok whatever. Dark tunnel! I just noticed this...do you notice anything? We walked up the hill of Doom, Death, and Destruction to Superman, next. It broke down twice, and the line was out to the end. Another thing about Superman...the fact that the queue is so dark, really hides a lot of problems that need to be fixed with it. That's probably a missing grate. Broken emergency exit sign. Open ducts. Hole in the ceiling. It was probably about this picture, when the guy in front of me started almost yelling at me, saying "Knock it off...stop taking pictures! It's dark." All while I'm thinking "Yeah, that's what a flash is for, genius!" ...that didn't stop me. Another broken duct. In conclusion, Superman needs a lot of work... TPR, yo! We finally got go on the Sky Tower! Haha, when we got in the elevator, just as the doors closed, and we were starting to move up, some guys started yelling "Hey! Hey!" they got owned. Yes...a nice picture, indeed. I could have sworn, I put it RIGHT there! We rode Viper... That thing tried to kill me...twice. It was the worst ride on Viper I've ever had on it. Sorry, Jahan! Our next, and final ride was X. it was broken down when we got there, so we waited, since it had a short line, and it was our only opportunity. When it opened again... ...it was time for the second running of the bulls! We waited about 15-20 minutes. X was rough for me today...however, my brother said it was much smoother than before...he's crazy. Yup...it's X ...hey Robb! Time to go! Seeya next time! I leave you all with a nice picture driving down the highway with the sunset. Thanks for reading! -Mike

^ http://itc.ua/img/dpk/2004/3/bantron.gif Anyway, I kind of like the Where is Yeti Ball one, but I don't know... Maybe...what park name will Cedar Fair ruin next? Or add "Knott's" to certain theme parks. Then again...it's probably too similar to the Six Flags one.... -Mike

How could you say that? It's not even light enough for you to see it. Look at it during the day, and then talk about it. -Mike
