You Might Be A Coaster Nerd If....
RAWKIN_coaster38 replied to PCW_Nut's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
...If you drive crazy and speed around because you wanna get some airtime/nice laterals in your car ...If you look at the random letters on license plates and come up with coaster-related acronyms. We recently saw "FDA" and came up with "Flight Deckers Anonymous." "Hi my name is Tom and I'm addicted to Flight Deck." "Hiii Tommmm." -
^On that note, here's something they posted on their Facebook Guy Fieri agrees with me that row 6 is awesome. Oh and about the row assignments... good luck. They're strict because it makes everything faster. I've noticed they ask people the number in their party, so groups of 4 are put in rows 2 and 3. If you're a single rider, I think you're more likely to be put in row 4 with another single rider. I think the best chance of getting row 1 is to be a group of 2.

A killer Intamin cable attack at any park! What's worse than having your organs repossessed because you couldn't afford to pay for your medical bill anymore? -
It was "the trees are as much an attraction for SDC as any of the rides are" that got me. Just the way it was phrased sounded like people were going to the amusement park just to see the trees.
-
Yes, they did. But I doubt they'd do it any time soon. Sounded like it was an arduous process and plus apparently SFDK has as much problems with complaining neighbors as CGA. Also, they've been doing alright with 150' rides, they have no need to go taller (though it'd be nice). ^Is it August 30th already?!?!? I'm really getting impatient with this.

From SDC thread: OMG I'm totally so excited to see the trees!!! Forget about Outlaw!

Wow. Do they actually close down the coaster just so TPR can do that? Or do you guys do that before it opens? -

School lunches transported from another school to yours in foil and plastic (true story, imagine the school lunches but all the food gets sloshed around and mixed together with stuff that shouldn't be mixed... like fruit cocktail and cole slaw) What's worse than losing cell service when you're waiting for an important call? -

That's an awesome photo, looks like a painful amount of wetness. I love that I-305 pic too. Just beautiful. -
What Was The Last Coaster You Rode?

Canyon Blaster at the Adventuredome in Vegas on Thursday. Was actually surprised by both Vegas coasters at how much I enjoyed them. Yes, I even enjoyed the Togo in an "OMG it wants to kill me but it must be having a good day so it's being semi-nice" type way. -
Shin kicking. An hour's marathon on the world's roughest SLC, or a really painful crotch shot?

Watching that show, then actually trying to copy them because "Like OMG the Kardashians are like, so cool." What's worse than being forever alone for life? -

Great TR Angry_Gumball!! Au13 vertical construction looks awesome. You guys are crazy for cramming 5 people in that log... wanna try for 6? (okay probably not gonna happen). Oh, and I seriously laughed so hard at the SFDK map thing. Did you troll some of the GP with that?? "Excuse me, but do you know where this coaster is? *points at Medusa* I can't find it."

Good to hear Superman is back! Just wanted to add one small tidbit... I was at the park the Thursday before last and I saw Superman roll back. It crested the hill super slow, couldn't make it, and rolled back. A few more launches hit that spot really slow and everyone gasped thinking it would roll back, but it didn't. I never thought it would get stuck, figured it would either roll back or continue forward. Hope this won't happen again but of all the things that could go wrong, this wasn't too bad. Honestly, the break downs have been the worst thing with capacity. When it's running okay they churn people through really fast. The employees hustle people out really well. I've been very impressed. It's even better if you're a single rider.

Giant Dipper at the Boardwalk! Yesterday was the first time I had ever gone to the Boardwalk, and Giant Dipper definitely didn't disappoint! -
This week I didn't expect to go out of town, but when I saw that Big Mike had posted the hiding places of all the NorCal duckies, I knew I MUST get a trip in this week. Only problem? I live 3 hours drive away from the closest duckie. In a few short days, I worked things out so I could take off for a duckie/credit whore trip! Here's the result! After 3 hours of driving, I finally get to Funderland in Sacramento!! So excited to get a new credit and find a duckie! NEW CREDIT!! It was actually a pretty fun kiddie coaster! After riding, I whip out my duckie cheat sheet and go a-searching.... but to no avail! The duckie is no where to be found! I even asked a few perplexed employees if they had found any rubber duckies hiding about, but they hadn't. My only conclusion was that some sneaky TPR member had already snatched it up, and hadn't posted yet! I was slightly disappointed, but glad to have gotten credit #87 for me! Fun Town at Micke Grove Zoo? But I already got this credit when I was 5! There must be another reason for my being here... I FOUND IT! I FOUND IT!!!! I got the duckie!!! This is my "I'm such a coaster whore, only reason I'm riding this is because I'm here and it's here" -face. Next up: SFDK. I really was not expecting to find this duckie, I figured someone who lived a little closer would have gotten it right away, I made it to the park around 3:30 and went straight for the Elephant area. Holding my breath, I looked in the planter... leaves, trash... DUCKIE!!!! Duckie #2 for me!! And my home park too!!! Ka-ching!!! So proud of this! Day 2: drove to San Jose and met up with Rolercstrluvr, then drove to Gilroy. I explained to the employee in the parking lot that we weren't going to be going into the park, just needed to get into the parking lot for 5 minutes to find something for a scavenger hunt. She actually let us through without paying the ! Thank you awesome lady! We drove to the light post marked A10 and with baited breath lift the metal thing... nothing!! Then we realize that all of the posts in the row are marked A10, so there's still a chance the duckie is there! GOT IT!!! This is Rolercstrluvr's #2 duckie, I'm just posting the pic because I have it! DUCKIE POWOW!! Ironically, Rolercstrluvr's duckies are both male ducks, and my duckies are both female ducks! They all went on a double-date on my dashboard. After securing Gilroy duckie, we headed to the Boardwalk so I could secure credit #88, 89 and 90! I'm exhausted, but it was totally worth the 15+ hours of driving over the last three days! Thank you Big Mike for inspiring an awesome spontaneous trip!

No. Have you travelled to somewhere more than 10 hours drive away this year?

Cedar Point gets a kiddie coaster, but takes out two more existing coasters. What's worse than caffeine being banned across the planet? -

... you know you're going to Six Flags tomorrow, so you get a bunch of $1s and a few $1 coins for the lockers. -

Getting mugged by an old lady and not being able to catch up with her What's worse than going to Magic Mountain on the busiest day of the year?
