Wow, if that is true, we call that illegal here in the United States.

Right, but that was an investment by Paramount up until this point you have to remember. Sorry to take away from the trip report.

I can honestly say that I don't think they will rip it down. They will trim it, and then if the costs of maintanence goes sky high, along with a loss in popularity, then they will probably kill it off.

Nice TR. Son of Beast is done for the year. I can't wait for Cedar Fair to trim it to death next year.

Nah, he is just obsessed with getting the mathematical equations that relate to you right, thus helping my theory.

Here is a very good documentary http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3251419433163515470&q=earthlings&pl=true Yes it is over and hour and a half long, but it covers a wide range of topics.

Alright, we will cut it at about 99.98%. I have a girl No offense Lou.

I am no longer ashamed to call you my friend I must say, this has been the name of my fantasy baseball team for 4 years now, and I've won the league twice, so that says something.

80% of the male members on this site are obsessed with Lou

I am now ashamed to call you my friend

Hmmm... I went into a couple and they weren't really that big. They were of nice size, but that just allowed for more filth and graffiti.

Maybe that was the place in the park? I just hit up the little shop out on the boardwalk. The place didn't have much, but they did have a 50% off rack.

I still hold true to J2, even after riding El Toro.

Haha. That's cool. I should have done that, but I settled on a 1/2 price Playland hoodie at the beach shop for $12.00. Hopefully it doesn't fall apart the first time I wear it. I'm just banking on the fact that it was half price because it is late July.

1. It's 2.85 a gallon here, suckers 2. "You're boys" are actually looking pretty good even though they lost last night. 3. It's freakin' weird how we never go to our home parks anymore.

Dolly did not build Dollywood from the ground up. Yes I know. It was a joke! Have a sense of humor

\Last year they started a pass thing where you can pay for a card that works for 6 hours. Actually, it's a wristband that is good for 6 hours. The cards are the things with the points on them. - I too believe that Knoebels whip is very below average and very boring. If you want another good whip, but no where near as good as this one at Playland, go to Dorney (it's one of the who historical things that they have left there). -- And I was totally going for the Zoltan thing with that pick. Nice catch!

Wow, ketchup. And I thought I was going to hell for mustard!

Hmmmm.... if they put up a Dolly monument when she is dead and keep building rides in her honor.... then I guess it counts. Good call

I had a weird thing for some pierogies tonight, so I got out my recipe and made them. But here is my question, how do you eat yours? For some reason I decided on some brown spicy mustard. Am I going to be arrested by the pierogie police? I mean, I guess the traditional way is to eat them with sour cream and onions. Sometimes I eat them deep fried with tomato sauce or even salsa. I know I'm going to hell for those, but what about mustard?

Yeah, it appears that way. Playland is definately a weird little place. It's kind of ghetto, but I like it.

That doesn't count! She built it herself! If I had the money I would be a WillisWood too!

Oh man. The darts part was great, but did you really have to do the porn?

Hey kids! Welcome to Rye Playland! This is a tutorial and tour of what Rye Playland has to offer, so your visit can be great and entertaining! It can be a little confusing, so hold on tight and get read for the ride! For the history of Rye Playland, go here: http://www.ryeplayland.org/History/default.htm Now, are you ready? Let's go! BEWARE OF THE BATHROOMS!!! On that note, have a great day! Time is running short, and you guys need to get out there and have some fun, so I have one more suggestion... get on this beautiful carousel! And aside from that, I have one more word of advice... For your resting pleasure, there are benches located all around the park. Even skinny people can sit on them, I swear. Although, there aren't any around, but I promise they can! ...and the Playland Plunge! On a hot day like tihs, it is keen to hit up the log flume... Oh my! It seems that we have come across the most popular attraction in the park... the lion water fountain! Hmmm.... I don't see that on map... they should start charging "points" for it. Anyway, moving on... Now this is the Kiddie Coaster. Sorry, no adults allowed. See, I knew what you were thinking. (; Some will argue that it is the Derby Racer, which is a must ride on any trip to Playland! Welcome to The Whip, the best flat ride in the park, at least in the opinion of this tour guide. And this is the trim free Crazy Mouse. Hold on tight! This is SuperFlight! Uh oh, it looks like those damn UK Trip credit whores were here. Let's move along now children. YAY! This is a Willis friendly park... uh hem, excuse me, sorry, back to the tour. Here at Rye Playland we offer service with a smile! Now, here is the trick, you can't ride any ride without putting your card or your wristband under this scanner. No click click without a beep beep. Welcome to Dragon Coaster! This is a classic wooden coaster! And there is one over there. Nathan's is everywhere! AHHHHH! I spy a Nathan's here. To your right is a Nathan's hotdogs. Now don't get scared. You don't have to come all the way back here to get a hotdog if you want, because... Now don't forget to pick up a park map, because here we go! Let's see what this place has to offer! If you go the card route, you can replenish your "points" at one of these nifty little shacks. Just remember, exact change please! Ok, first things first. You can either get a wrist band that is good for 6 hours or get a card that gets you "points". All rides are worth designated "points". With the wristband, you don't have to worry about points. No silly! We are in Rye Playland of course. Here is the front gate, let's go! Ok kids, here's our first quiz of the day! Where are we? Are we in A. Mexico City or B. Rye Playland? you can still take pictures through the glass with a reflection of yourself in it. It makes it look just like you are in there with it anyway! We have come up to the museum! Um, well, the door seems to be locked for some reason, but... And Please PI P AFTER OUR DOG! And make sure, if you want to swim, to only go into the water when the green flag is up. Be sure to admire the sites and smells of Long Island Sound while on the boardwalk! I suggest taking a walk down the boardwalk! It's no Jersey shore, but it will do! Ok, so, first things first. You pay your parking fee and you park!

It really does get crowded? I wasn't sure if it would or not. Maybe I better second guess my plans on a day trip. Either that, or suck it up and get the flash pass.
