  1. Ok, I thought I posted previously but I did not. About a week into the season I had a dream that the Washington Nationals were in the World Series against the Texas Rangers. I looked up the odds and to begin the year the Nats were 100-1 to win the World Series and Texas Rangers were 30-1. Not sure what their odds were to win their respective leagues, but if the Nats were 50-1 and Rangers were 15-1, a $20 parlay that they would meet in the World Series would pay around $15,000. A friend of mine was vacationing in Vegas at the time and I almost asked him to place the bet for me. I know it is only 20% into the season, but I sure hope these two teams don't make the World Series.
  2. A few years ago John Fetterman told a story at Knoebels to a group of enthusiasts about naming his son John Allen, after the ride designer.
  3. ^are you sure your flight went to Spain? I don't remember my flight going there.
  4. ^J. Jonah Jameson is a tight wad who would never authorize the funds needed to build the "Scoop" vehicle. Major plot flaw!
  5. So you are saying Fuji-Q makes the "Best" of Japan?
  6. Jason - much appreciated. Looks like a lot of Northeast parks got hit with bad weather. Rides ended up shutting down at SFGAdv and Dorney Park due to high winds on Saturday. Luckily, no snow for us.
  7. You have some nice pictures in here. Finish it at your own pace; no one on this site is going anywhere.
  8. 1- Nemesis 2 - Afterburn 3 - Montu 4 - Vampire 5 - Dueling Dragons Ice
  9. The problem is this attitude seems to creep across the whole park once the summer heats up. Early in the season before the crowds come in and the weather warms up have not been the problem in recent years.
  10. Hi, my name is Barry Hom. I'm kind of sad and pathetic. How about you?
  11. Good to know that the Spook House is operating, There was no indication if it would be operational this season when I was there in early April.
  12. In my opinion Spiderman has an easier storyline to follow and movements of the ride vehicles are more effective. However, taking the time to follow it, I think DarKastle has a superior storyline and many of the 3D effects always make me flinch, which is not the case with Spiderman.
  13. For the most part, the qualtiy is the same as other affordable shirts. It's the label on the shirt that makes it expensive. Hey now! Don't forget that the Advertising and Marketing efforts raise the price also. I want credit for something. In my job I might try to convince you all to go with brand names, but I won't do it my personal life.
  14. ^I have slapped my wrist for not reading the rules. I deleted all my responses except #10.
  15. 10. Does Gertrude get Beth a souvenir from Bay Area Bash? If so, what does she get Beth? If not, why doesn't she get Beth anything? No, because she forgot to bring her Goose change.
  16. Did they also serve you free alcohol? I think I must have stopped at a different Camden Park in 2007.
  17. ^I'm not sure of your defintion of boat load. But if you fill a canoe with quarters, than that value is probably close to what SF will take in per month for this effort. As far as why the ads are not themed. That's a lot of extra work for an Ad Agency and costs to an advertiser.
  18. Knoebels did not enforce a single rider rule on Wipeout during the Sunday of opening weekend.
  19. ^Don't go the Wild Waves in Seattle by yourself, at least 4 rides did not allow single riders. Ring of Fire Falling Star Gambler Octopus Could be a safety issue wear smaller people could slide under the restraint if they lay done as happened a couple of years ago on the Rye Playland Scrambler. If two people ae in the cars the ability to lie day would be diminished. Blame it on stupid people and lawyers!
  20. I love the idea and think it is awesome, although it could work better for a product that is more synergystic with the El Toro theme. Don't blame the SF or Intamin. Blame today's ADD society who refuse to watch commercials on TV. Throw out your remote controls and DVRs. Blame cheap enthusiasts who complain about park prices and force a bankrupt company to find alternative revenue streams.
  21. you're so old. next you're gonna say we can't break up via text either Breaking up via text is certainly allowable.
  22. r.i.n.g.s rings
  23. If someone tells you this via text, it's BS! You are better off without her.
