TR: AJ's 2012 Summer Adventures
rider-x replied to rcdude's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
It does come off as negative towards the tour organizers. I have always found that on tpr trips the thing I admire most about the organization is thier outstanding ability to adapt to problems when they arise. (which is rare) P.S AJ please dont spin the expidition geforce thing as a negative on your europe trip. Just saying -
I wholeheartedly agree neil. The park staff was as cool and gracious as any could be. They were so apologetic with a situation we all knew was out of their control. Opening up the food stall so that we could get more beer and free ice cream was awesome. I keep saying that it's non scheduled things that happen during a tpr trip that I look back on and enjoy the most.

it was about 20 minutes when we first got there. Some of us crafty people got 2 rides in a row by hopping back on the empty seats while the rest of us obeyed protocol by calmly exiting the ride (cough cough wink wink Talone) the longest line I waited in was for the flume and that was about 25 min. We all waited about 2 hrs. after the park closed to see if they could get the catch car down from the top of the lift. Alas they could not.

Photo TR: The Ray's do the Road To Cedar Point!
rider-x replied to jray21's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I double dog dare anyone to go to a park with Cliff and try to drink half as much beer as he does and then ride the most spinny stuff you can find. Good luck with that, let me know how that works out for ya -
I really enjoyed the park. GeForce was awesome. Looking back on it I kinda enjoyed us waiting around waiting to see if it was going to run for ert. Every time the catch car moved an inch 50 crazed tpr cats started cheering in the rain. It was fun. Thank god Robb told us to ride it early. Great tip. The reversible log flume was killer too. (for me el toro is still #1 but that could have been because of the incredible ert session we had)

Nice report jiggidy. I am disturbed and a little pissed of about the lack of photo's that have me in them. Especially since I was your qbot homie. I mean we may of only rode 30 coasters together and I gets no love? Please fix this on future updates or I will email TPdave with a complaint
