Photo TR: shesaidboom and 307 do a bunch of parks
CoasterFanatic replied to shesaidboom's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
I kind of like it, but only wished that they used a "real" font instead. You have been looking at the wrong pictures. You need only see one. Let me demonstrate. -
Holiday World PTR, June 19-20th
CoasterFanatic replied to disneygurlz2s's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Awesome TR. It is going to be pretty wild watching your daughter grow up over time. I can already see a big change from when you first started posting. -
Right now the site isn't coming up at all. I already locked one of these topics because you basically linked to an empty site. Now, you have started another thread only a day later. How much content could rally be added in a day! My advice is to get the site going. Get some "real" content and then post it here. You do have the post count where people won't consider it spam, but the link should still serve some sort of purpose. Till then .... // Closed

^ Glad you enjoyed your visit Eric. Knoebels is a great park! I can't wait for my next rip out there.

It is always better to post the link after you put in content. If you post it before, people go "Bleh" and then don't come back. Try posting your link after the site has something to offer. // Closed

But they kept the black dude holding a beer at the Noah's Ark entrance. I guess PCness takes time -
Photo TR: The Dark Rides of Blackpool Pleasure Beach
CoasterFanatic replied to cfc's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Awesome. I only took a picture of the bar scene. That was too much! FAO Schwartz meets Darkride. What could go wrong? Also, since you seem to be such a big fan of dark rides, you may want to check this out if you haven't already. www.dafe.org -
Worst Arrow coaster
CoasterFanatic replied to CP_fan_boy's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Whoops. I was thinking roughest. For worst, I would have to say Iron Dragon. I can jog faster than that thing. -
Worst Arrow coaster

US SOLDIERS IN IRAQ - YES OR NO?
CoasterFanatic replied to HAYASHI's topic in Random, Random, Random
The problem is that people don't "debate". They have their minds made up before they even step foot into the thread. My mind is made up also, but I find it easier to just keep it to myself at this time, because certain heads would most definately explode. -

The Best Terrain Coaster
CoasterFanatic replied to dr.gumbo's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I don't think you will ever find a better coaster that uses less materials than the Jack Rabbit. -
Wes is going to shoot me in the face.

Best (and worst) "Sounds" on a coaster
CoasterFanatic replied to Jon Sabo's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Good sounds: B&M Roar. Kumba has always been my fave. Thunderbolts Spaghetti Bowl Schwarzkoph Loops Bad sounds: The Big One The loud clunk at the top of Whirlwind at Knoebels (gone) Any turn on the Mean Squeak at Cedar Point -

This thread is unlocked for now, but we all know how this ends. // try to respect other peoples opinions and I sure that it will stay alive -
What do you get when you pile nearly 50 coaster lunatics on a bus and give them the keys to nearly every theme park in the United Kingdom? I tell you what you get ... fun! Check out my trip report at CoasterFanatics for all the gory details. Here is a small sample (Now with Captions!) ... Nicole and Derek were some of the first TPR'rs to meet us in the lobby on Day 1 That's right I am a badass. Only a few hours in London and I already got a Harley. Too bad that this, the one parked next to it and one other bike made up the only 3 Harleys I saw in the whole country. As I almost found out many times on the first day, if you don't look the right way, you will die. Underground, what a clever name. Hey look kids. Ya we know. Sorry no credits in downtown. Only this little itty bitty ferris wheel. Excuse me sir, could you lead me to the gate door that doesn't have a guard toting an AK-47. How long does it take to make a phonecall. This stupid guy hogged the booth for like 15 minutes. "One million dollars" The bus smells good ... for now. I will never get wet for I have red-glowing devil eyes to protect me. So this is where all those mall fountains ended up at. Another trip ... another scary picture of me in a goofy hat. Coney Beach. Home of the 10 pence loos, sandbag credits, broken gators, drunken gypsies that speak only in gibberish, really dark dark-rides, crazy mouth growths, tits, and much much more. Elissa with a lap bar half-way up her ass for all you fanboys. Why do nearly all injuries start with the words "watch this"? Well, let me demonstrate. I think I will take the Chips and Teas. Speed was excellent. (Am I saying that because it is really good or because I know 95% of you haven't been on a Eurofighter. Look like you will have to wait till next year to find out) Duuuuuuuuuudddde, that poncho isn't going to do sh*t. Lou and Jeff demonstrate their talents on the slides of doom. I guess these guys won because their team card didn't manage to reboot the DOS 3.0 machines running the game. My second Intamin Dive Flume sighting and still not one ride. Thank you for not smoking in the Splash Landing lounge. James is now a happy man. It isn't Heineken, but it will do! I prefer to do Rita in the rear, but these guys obviously prefer the front. More Rita goodness. "Cause he's a Spinball Whizzer there has to be a twist" Posing in front of the Castle Argggggggghhhhh Not even the human dryers can save my camera. So much for video coverage. Oh, how I love European rapid rides. Oblivion rocks! Did I mention that Oblivion rocks! This is NOT an acceptable amount of wetness. Back at the hotel, Splash Landings had one very cool Master Blaster slide. But what was really cool ... ... was the drag queen that sang at the Alton Hotel. Hooray for Nemesis ERT! AIR was the first flying coaster that I have ever been on that truly took full advantage of the concept. The lifthill and restraint were totally bizarre. But I still kind of dug G-Force. I only wish that the restraint would lock as to not click any further and block all air from reaching your lungs. "Ramming Speed!" Still the best attraction at Drayton Manor. Talk about views. Here is a shot from our back window at the Big Blue Hotel. Heath faces strikes from across the pond. "It has been judged and Ted IS the largest coaster-uber-geek on the trip" "Would someone please tell these Aussie A**holes to stop playing grab-ass on the wheel of death" Hot TPR girl on girl action. Bet you wish you went now. It sure is easy to smile before you ride it. "All I need is a rock, some grass, and a cigarette. Wait ... and these gretian statues. All I need is a rock, some grass, a cigarette and this gretian statue." Crossing your fingers is futile. The most evil Waltzer in the whole of England. Ok ... so this flat ride doens't have tits painted on it. It is still good. Waiter ... I will have the Chocolate Death Dessert. Gap is calling me. Must resist urges WKD = Windex James demonstrates his idea of morning ERT "Nothing can stop me "tool"belt of doom." After Steel Phantom, I thought that putting an Arrow between your legs would be a bad thing, but Steeplechase turned out to be pretty good. No triple crown credit for the whores. The red lane never operated. And they're off! "I am so going to kick your gluten-free ass and Will here is going to tape the whole thing." I always thought that girlies dug the Bling, but Catrina sat this one out. Suck on it Pavillion! Holla! "Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop taking amphetamines" "Is this a credit?" "To coaster geek infinity and beyond!" Blackpool. Where you can ride the fat pig and your friends won't laugh at you. At least, not very loudly. Nothing water can penetrate my full body Valhalla condom. Nothing! "Thanks Ted for telling us how great Valhalla was" Ok, let me know when you find these treats at Kennywood. I really think Robb is praying that this isn't the last time he sees his lipstick camera. This just looks like a bad idea. "Do you think we have enough gas to run away from Ted?" You sir are busted! This is truly sad and pathetic. Those aren't screams of pain. Those are screams of disbelief. How could this be a Vekoma. Welcome to your ride on Ball-Buster Deluxe. Please stay seated on your testicles at all times. I think I am going to show her my O-Face. No matter how many signs you flash, nobody looks hardcore on a Wacky Worm. Yes. It's a credit. Now piss off. At least there was one credit at Joyland. Who invited Barry to this carriage. 5 pounds, but worth it. Walking is starting to really suck. Why is Robb the only one who looks angry? I swear ... I am not going to try to take your food. Everyone can eat except the Hoffmans. They will have to wait another hour for that honor. Yummy waffles More credits for James. And Robb! Look James. I found Jimmy Hoffa. Beware ... I am beer drinking, pocket pool guy. Now give me some candy. No comment. Another beer, another credit. Ok. Again. No Comment. Nicole is obviously only slightly tickelish. Robb was right on that whole "kind of like Six Flags" thing, but we got plenty of rides Group photo by Slammer So this is where the Bouys room is. WTF? Yet again. WTF? "No Mr. Billy Goat, that is not a snack." Lets go hunt some birds! Look! It's a bird, no it's a plane, no it's an explosion of bird guts and feathers. Check out the trip report for more!
