What is the best coaster in your home park?

Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride. -
This is why marketing/corporate tools have no business making decisions in theme parks...

Jan. 3, 2007, Sugar Bowl-- LSU 41, Notre Dame 14 Jan. 2, 2006 Fiesta Bowl-- Ohio St. 34, Notre Dame 20 Dec. 28, 2004 Insight Bowl-- Oregon St. 38, Notre Dame 21 Jan. 1, 2003 Gator Bowl-- N.C. State 28, Notre Dame 6 Jan. 1, 2001 Fiesta Bowl-- Oregon St. 41, Notre Dame 9 Jan. 1, 1999 Gator Bowl-- Georgia Tech 35, Notre Dame 28 Dec. 28, 1997 Independence Bowl-- LSU 27, Notre Dame 9 Jan. 1, 1996 Orange Bowl-- Florida St. 31, Notre Dame 26 Jan. 2, 1995 Fiesta Bowl-- Colorado 41, Notre Dame 24 Front page of ESPN: "Brady Quinn lost three career bowl games by a combined score of 113-55." Brady Quinn's stats: 15/35, 149 yards, 2TD, 2INT Notre Dame defense: 583 yards allowed. I love it. Something like 85 schools have won a bowl game since ND's last bowl game win.

Expedition Everest Yeti Not Working?
Jew replied to JJemMO852's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^^^Did you learn that from Al Lutz...err, I mean your imagineering friend? I don't think there is a ride in the entire history of amusement parks that can say it has been open all the time and/or had all of its effects working. That's just what happens when you cycle things every 30 seconds for 10+ hours a day. -
So a gay guy makes a comment on what he thinks about pride festivals, and Joe makes a joke...and their ignorant? But saying, "you guys aren't 21, you obviously don't know anything about Mardi Gras" isn't? I won't even comment on how 2/3 of your post really has nothing to do with pride festivals and is just a very loosely connected tangent, but that seems to be OK, yet a simple joke a site with a disclaimer about having a sense of humor isn't OK (or a comment on topic that you don't agree with for that matter)... Keep on partying like a rhinestone cowboy and enjoying Pride festivals. If you think it's fun, great! But realize that just by the nature of those events, not everyone is going to think the same way about them. Just lighten up dude. Don't get upset when someone else doesn't share the same interests or opinions as you... (this is why you can't talk about religion, politics, or sexual orientation on a message board)

Santa Kicked Out of WDW
Jew replied to Airtime&Gravity's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Disney did this for the same reason you can't wear costumes to any "Haunt" events: they don't want the guests confusing the other guest as an official park character. Doesn't seem far-fetched to me... -
Photo TR: Non-German Tom's California Adventure
Jew replied to Shockwave's topic in Photo Trip Report Archive
^No airtime? The effects might suck, but there is definitely a couple of decent pops of air on Mummy in the back. -Joey "we have the better control room, break room, and offices...so it's all good!" Mandel -
TPR EXCLUSIVE!! Maverick TESTING Photos And Video

Can't wait to get this credit! Awesome!!! -
The Monorail is great too. But you'll be doing a bit more walking.

Magic Mountain Parkway to Change Name!!!!
Jew replied to SharkTums's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^Exactly. And plenty of streets have different names in different directions. Even theme park streets! Universal Hollywood Drive is Campo De Caheunga Way in the other direction. Although I think just "Auto Center Parkway" is a better name for the street if they are going to change it... -
1. 351 acres?!?! The entire property is only 415... 2. Downsizing? They will actually be expanding the lot...and the theme park by at least 80,000sqft (which as screamscape is pointing out...is not very much, but it's something), noted in the plans that the Amplitheater may be removed to accomodate further growth of the "entertainment (read: theme park) area," and the studio tour would be revitalized again... 3. Los Angeles may have plenty of houses (and plenty more under construction), but there are not very many developments that are positioned in the heart of a key employment area (Universal/Burbank/etc=production central!) next to a transit hub (the metro station). Just look at how Downtown LA is being revitalized. Better public transportation+jobs=booming condo/loft market for an area that previously no one really wanted to live in... I suggest everyone freaking out take a visit to www.ucvision.com and realize that this plan is far from final. They have to present it now to be ready for the expansion over the next 25 years, instead of waiting till it is too late to get the permits/fights with public/etc. out of the way. So relax. Wait until they actually start bulldozing those sets before you freak out.

Just ride in the front at night. And take plenty of pictures in the station. Then it'll be an awesome ride. -

AeroMall ---->Shopping Mall with 8 coasters
Jew replied to Lincow's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^I just downloaded the blueprints for a 10,000sqft mansion to be built right in the middle of Disney World. It's totally going to be the house for next years TPR "real world" trip. -
Sports Night was better. But this is still a good show.

Does this mean their woodie is on the verge of taking the #1 spot? -
Ziplines over 200ft gorges=adventureous. Sex with someone in an animal suit=not so much.
