Thanks for the video! The quality is very good. These extra little perks are one of the things I love about Club TPR.

As a USC fan as well, my sentiments are similar. I can't say I was rooting for Oregon as much as I was rooting against FSU.

My son and I received comp tickets on a rained out day in 2012 when we only got to ride Batman and Colossus before they closed the park just a couple hours after opening. We ended up using the tickets a few months later and had a pretty good day.

The youtube video link has a little more information. It doesn't appear to be a complete circuit.

This is pretty interesting way to try to sell your house.

Snow is back!

Goldstriker was a very pleasant surprise for me. It's not that I expected it to suck or anything. I just thought that it was being over-hyped by the CGA fanboys and I tempered my expectations accordingly. It then surprised me by being at least as good, and possibly even better, than it had been described. Having ridden it again recently during Haunt, it has only gotten better as it has broken in. I hope they can keep it running like it is for years to come. I was really ready for CGA to just close and go away a few years ago. I'm now glad that didn't happen.

I did the survey. It made me realize that there are a lot of B&M coasters I need to ride. I'm glad to have Flight Deck and Medusa close to home, although Medusa does get a bit of a rattle at times when it's due for maintenance. It's sometimes very noticeable from one train to another. I've never experienced Scream being any better or worse than Medusa in the rattle department, but it certainly has more of a reputation for it.

Coastrider at Knott's.

Have you ever heard the expression "tongue-in-cheek"?

Are you sure this isn't Dennis Rodman?

When I ride Ghostrider I cry tears of pain.

First: California Screamin'. (I think) Last (so far) Demon at CGA. (I'll probably go to SFDK, and maybe even the DLR before 2014 is over)

That would be sweet. I see what you did there.

I'm going to take my chances that the weather won't be too terrible and check out Haunt tonight. Wish me luck!

For some reason when someone prints text on paper and then takes a photo of it and puts it on Facebook people think it's more credible than if they just typed it. Sadly people tend to just believe anything they see on Facebook either way. I kinda want to go there and counter protest. SFDK I feel might not be as good as SeaWorld, but I have no doubt that they don't try to take care of the animals as best as they can. either way, they aren't going to be protesting at the ticket booths/main gate and most won't turn away after driving miles to SFDK just to turn around due to protesters who don't know what they are even talking about. i'm betting it will be a small group if even that.

Gilroy Gardens.

The cockroaches are what gave the chicken the extra special flavor.

I think Grizzly at CGA could use a little blow torch work.

Boomerang during night ERT at Knott's. Had I stopped to think about it, I would have made it something else. Oddly enough though, the ride was actually decent for a Boomerang.

I've got to admit, plane-on-a-stick looks a bit beyond my threshold. Were they running an extra-crazy program just for TPR, or is that how it always runs?
