Not really, but I'd love to go on one! Will you visit a new park this season?

Today for lunch! (It's inexpensive and I'm on a first name basis with most of the workers there) When was the last time you watched WWE? -

I don't think so, Yngve! I'm going to be driving a lot today and tomorrow! (over 400 miles of it)

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
cparkes92 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I agree! Years ago there was a heavy rain just as we got to the park so we had to hide under a tree by WildCat (RIP). The rest of that day had good weather from what I can remember. Also, it can get HOT there. Another time I was there and I saw little ambulance carts going around. I'm guessing people were suffering from heat exhaustion as it had to be near 100 degrees that day. -
What are your TOP TEN COASTERS
cparkes92 replied to ddaver177's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
1. Millennium Force (Cedar Point) 2. Incredible Hulk (Islands of Adventure) 3. Maverick (Cedar Point) 4. Raptor (Cedar Point) 5. Top Thrill Dragster (Cedar Point) 6. Valravn (Cedar Point) 7. GateKeeper (Cedar Point) 8. Kraken (SeaWorld Orlando) 9. Rougarou (Cedar Point) 10. Shivering Timbers (Michigan’s Adventure) My coaster count isn't impressive at all (only 49, and that's counting Gemini, Space Mountain, and Dragon Challenge as two credits apiece) -
Liseberg Discussion Thread

I wonder who bought it. Better keep an eye out. Even though it's a long shot, I'd love to see it at Michigan's Adventure -

About a week ago! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTZwhEm1sMs When was the last time you had to wait in line over an hour for a coaster? -

I'm assuming you're talking about the blind Greek poet, so 1/10 Lightning Rod?
-
To make it worse, they close Darien Lake and sell some of the rides to Cedar Fair. You have a trip planned to Florida.

It was very good! This place has old photos of Manistee on their tables (scanned underneath clear plastic)

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
cparkes92 replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
As rumor (well, legend by this point) goes, only one person ever experienced the in-line twist - Intamin President, Sandor Kernacs. Apparently, he rode it once and immediately knew it was too much for the general public and ordered the redesign. Who knows how intense it actually was, but I imagine it would have been immensely more tolerable with these new restraints. I wish I could have experienced it - Those testing videos looked INSANE! Also, Intamin recently updated their website, if anyone's interested! Even with that redesign, Maverick still opened Memorial Day weekend that year (the only new coaster the Point has put in recently that wasn't open on Opening Day - even TTD was open on the first day of the 2003 season!)
