Weirdest Things The 'GP' Have Said
CorkscrewFoley replied to maliboomer's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I have to say i do love funking with the GP's head when the situation arrives. I was queuing up for Disaster Transport, and these kids behind myself and my friend Larry--no older than 14 they were, and the one kid asked if it goes upside down. I turn around and tell him it does, saying it has ten inversions, and you only have a lap bar. So this is going on for awhile, my buddy having a laugh at this, and finally as we'regoing up the stairs, i told it doesn't go upside ten times. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

Ya maybe it can be a 500ft B&M Dive/Flyer lol but seriously what ever it is i'm sure it will be amazing. I hope so, with an Aquatrax bit, and a shoot 'em up dark ride section. If all else fails, break out the hyper wild mouse. -

Nah, the new coaster is finally going to be the 500 ft. dive machine, even though we know B&M won't go past 230 ft. -
I know myself, I'm a combo of a woohoo type of guy and a laugher, I really have no issues with screaming, it's when it's unneccessary. That and these idiots who throw up the rock on hand sign and going 'yeah baby!' throughout the entire ride. There's being silly and having a good time, and then there's being a flippin' moron that draws the line.

There was a Beck reference? Where? -

That sounds awfully fanboyish...me detecting yet another fan-boy...bring out the beligerent bullies...kidding. But yeah, you're actually spot on about the Point. -
PTR: The rides of Wisconsin State Fair!
CorkscrewFoley replied to kumba830's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
And the questions keep on coming. We had the Viper here in Windsor a few years back, except it's called the King Kobra. I was going to ride it when it was here last, but I hadn't eaten much, went riding, and my stomach wasn't doing well. -
Retro Photo TR: Idora Park 1983-84
CorkscrewFoley replied to pianojohn's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Thanks for posting these pics John. I have to say though, from your pics and description of Wildcat, its layout sound/looks similar to the Swamp Fox. This by no means is a bad thing. -

Dan, sorry if I didn't catch the sarcasm--and I should have, being a smart a$$ myself, I should be able to catch it. -
Photo TR: Chris goes to Kennywood for the first time.

Nice little TR, I'm glad you enjoyed Kennywood, and of course Phantom. -

^I agree with you, there are other parks I would love to visit that I haven't, but if my only trip s to the Point, I go there to do what I love to do...ride coasters and have fun. I also got thinking that the bashers also base their opinions on the CP fan-boys. I've read posts by many in my life, and I can see why many would bash the park. As for England Patriot's comments, dude, they're flats everywhere, but when you're there for coasters, you don't notice them. -

That would be perfect for an Intamin swinging ship with ring-a-ring-ding-aling...sorry... lol -

CorkscrewFoley replied to dandaman's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
Cedar Point's my home park, and even if I get only a handful of rides in, I still have a great time. Again, I think it's how you make of it. I think it's still en vogue in the enthusiast community to bash Da Point, but that's how I see it. -

Hey Guy, how about Sintamin Sega Site? -

I got thinking, and this is a far stretch, why not have some wild west themed dark top spin? The Point will have covered three aspects... a dark ride, a flat, and a water ride. Just a tought...
