  1. ^I assume the votes were tabulated and certified by the auditing firm PricewaterhouseCoopers?
  2. I rode Doppel Looping a few years ago and it was a pretty good ride. It kind of reminded me of Lazer. I do hope it gets a good home. I imagine a smaller park will buy it.

    SFMM-help!!!!

    Maybe we need a sticky titled "Look here for SFMM hints and tips!"
  4. ^Nah, she'll come back. We have cookies.
  5. ^I have to wonder...when she says to pretend it's like the Edge, is she referring to the guitarist for U2?
  6. ^^Dorney tends to be crowded on a Saturday. Sundays aren't too bad, but I'd suggest going on a weekday if possible.
  7. ^I can see the crazy photos of Ms. Cody on a TPR trip now...
  8. Actually, here is "Juno II!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIxX4fbjCQU
  9. ^An Inconvenient Juno?
  10. This question sounds familiar... I'm not R&E, but I think they really like Balder and Expedition GeForce. As for flats, how about the bouncy bouncy during the Spain tour? Favorite parks...does SFMM count?
  11. ^I guess that's why we have Robb's DVDs then!
  12. ^I suspect you would get along with Joey and you both can drool over the 1st generation Intamin freefalls. No, they aren't credits, *ahem* Jeff Johnson! I'm sure there is space on one of the trips. Come on, you got to use the residuals from "Juno" somewhere!
  13. The only credit whores here are Jeff Johnson and Elissa Alvey! OK, I admit it...me too. I visited Sesame Place just to ride Vapor Trail. Now here's a crazy idea...Ms. Cody can join TPR on one of their trips and make a movie about it. That might be a bit scary too. Then again, Juno MacGuff can hook up with Nicholas D'Agosto.
  14. Dorney Park is really a 1/2 day park if you don't do the waterpark. The best time to visit Dorney is on a weekday. Even on a weekday in July, I was able to ride the coasters multiple times with a 5-10 minute wait. I hear the waterpark is pretty cool, so that may take up the other 1/2 day. If you don't want to do the waterpark, you can buy a 1/2 admission for after 4 or 5 pm admission for around $25-$30. Hersheypark is really an all-day park. It is a popular park and attracts the crowds. If they still have it, I believe you can buy a one-day ticket for after 3 pm admission and get the next day free. At least you can get the lay of the land and ride a few things before the park closes. I think Hershey and Dorney are a 3 hour drive from each other.
  15. If you're going to the Hard Rock Park in Myrtle Beach, you might as well stop by Family Kingdom and get the Swamp Fox credit. It's a pretty ghetto park, but the log flume ride is pretty cool. It has the Ripsaw Falls effect of going under the water. No, it is not a credit (but it is one if you are Jeff Johnson).
  16. ^^I don't know about you, but I think Bill is a tad bit old to be playing a high school student. Maybe he can be a teacher, the principal, or the weird janitor.
  17. ^The single rider line for the Hulk merges with the Express line. When the 2nd Team Member checks Express passes, tell the person you are a single rider and you get to go down a separate path. The Hulk single rider line may have been closed because the regular wait was relatively short. The Spider-Man single rider line is to the left of the Express entrance. If you turn left, you will see stroller parking and another entrance with a sign flipped over. If the single rider line is open, that sign will be flipped and say "Single Riders." Also, a sign near that entrance will be flipped. It will say Single riders. BTW, Jaws at USF has a single rider line too.
  18. Remember, if you rent "Juno," make it a double feature and rent "Rocket Science" too. I wonder...will our Ms. Cody write about TPR in EW? I can see the column now..."There's this website called Theme Park Review..."
  19. ^^Dr. Doom's Fearfall does have a single rider line. Doh, how can I forget? It has a weird entrance because you have to enter through the exit.
  20. ^At first, I thought it said that he wanted Robb and Elissa to find a tailor.
  21. At Universal Orlando, the following rides have single rider lines: USF: Revenge of the Mummy Men in Black IOA: Hulk Spider-Man Dudley Do-Right's Ripsaw Falls The single rider lines for Mummy and MIB are almost always open, unless the regular wait time is nearly 0 minutes. The single rider lines at Spider-Man and Ripsaw Falls generally open when the regular wait is 30-45 minutes. Hulk's single rider line can open when the line is longer than 30 minutes, but it has a tendency to open and close when it wants. The wait for the single rider line can almost be as long as the wait for the regular line. Usually, Mummy and MIB will get you on the ride in 15 minutes or less (unless the lines are backed up as far back as the entrance). Spider-Man's single rider line is generally half the wait of the regular line. Hulk's single rider line can get you on in about 15-20 minutes. Remember, the single rider line wait can be as long as the regular wait or can close if the line becomes too long. The MIB single rider line seems to be the most efficient at Universal. Also, if you see WillMontu at Universal, please slap him upside the head for telling a modly, oldy joke. He's not hard to find -- just look for a really dorky guy wandering around with an equally dorky camera.
  22. ^I suppose that means a lot of beer and popcorn for the judges?
  23. Too bad the piece of wood didn't have an image of Jesus. You could have made lots of $$$ on eBay!
  24. Damn, my Dutch Wonderland video loses this year. *sniff*
