The Bag-Of-Crap Giveaway Thread!

Is that pic of St Louis? That looks like Busch Stadium at the bottom right corner. Could it refer to Busch Gardens? -

Trying to find the link. I have no idea what the last clue means though. -

"Under the Bridge" is the name of a Red Hot Chili Peppers song, which could be linked to the guitar as well. Throwing out some ideas...obviously we need more info. -

The Guitar could mean Rock N' Roller Coaster at Disney close by Orlando. The Water under the bridge could mean fish. Perhaps the Ride "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" at Islands Of Adventure, which happens to be in Orlando as well, Am I on to something? -
I thought I'd add this thought here. The following is all according to RCDB. Canada's Wonderland has a custom Arrow ride called Dragon Fire built in 1981. Heide Park has a coaster Big Loop built by Vekoma in 1983 which is an exact clone of Dragon Fire. Now Big Loop did use Arrow trains until this year when they got the trains from the Alton Towers Corkscrew. That says to me that they must have had some kind of deal there. So Vekoma has used an other manufacturer's idea in the past, although in this case it doesn't look like Vekoma "ripped off" Arrow. Nonetheless, I thought that would be interesting to share here.

The UK is definitely near the top of my list to visit. Gonna have to get in on the next TPR trip there when that happens. Thanks for sharing.

Funny how everything is much better now that Kovalchuk is gone. I thought they were making a huge mistake putting Byfuglien back on D but I was clearly wrong. Point per game pace as a D is crazy. Ladd is finally showing some more offensive ability. And come playoff time along with Sopel, they have some cup experience. I don't think they will be a cup contender but don't be surprised if they get past the first round.

Funny thing is, the Opry Mills Mall that was built on the property after the park closed is now currently closed because of flooding it sustained during the 2010 Tennessee Floods in May. The park had been flooded in 1975 as previously mentioned. -
Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread

It was definitely really intense. Many people, including Robb, were greying/blacking out on it. If you watch the video on YouTube, he mentions it. Some people didn't mind it too much, but many did which led to adding the trims. If they can make the turn wide enough to remove the trims and get the ride back going to what they had originally intended, thats better, especially for Jeff Johnson. -

What about baseballs, soccer balls and hockey pucks? Funny thing is, it doesn't say no cameras. Great pics. Can't wait to visit in August! -
Right now I'm keeping up with House, NCIS and NCIS: Los Angeles. I catch all the Mythbusters episodes as well when I can. 24 was fantastic when it was on and I'm looking forward to a movie adaptation. I have every season of Seinfeld on DVD and could quote it endlessly. Probably the greatest thing I've seen on TV though would have to be the first season of Prison Break. Season 2 was almost as good and while still a good show, it did decline in last couple seasons and it was the right call to end it when they did.
