As far as I know I have registered and am good to go for my first ever WCB!
With that said a couple of questions:
Because I will have to leave a little bit early (say 4 or 5 PM), will there be any additional hoops or hurdles I will have to go through in order to leave the park before everyone else?
Also,
Some back round info so this question makes sense:
If anything has changed from a few years ago when this was the prevalent general attitude toward ACE, let me know!!
If I can recall correctly, there are two kinds of coaster geeks: 1.) The stereotypical obese, loud, obnoxious, rude, boisterous and the only thing they like more than coasters is food, aka the American Coaster Enthusiast (ACE) geeks. The kind that rightly or wrongly gives coaster geeks a bad reputation. (Before anyone goes off on me for dissing ACE'ers, keep in mind I'm a member of ACE myself!!)
And then, there are the insurgent, renegade anti-ACE coaster geeks. Basically the ones who live semi-normal lives and wouldn't stand out of a crowd of people in a bad way. Which I assume is what TPR and Westcoaster members are like, generally speaking.
Now with all of that said, I took a non-coaster geek friend of mine to Solace a few years ago and he witnessed what you would describe as the "stereotypical" ACE'ers and he was convinced that all coaster geeks have no teeth and have nothing in their wardrobe that is non-coaster related.
So would it be wise to tell this same friend who is going with me to WCB that the kind of people who will be attending this event is NOT like the ones he saw at Solace?
