BeemerBoy Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 ^Speaking of which.....you're rolling in a Z4, yet complaining about a $2.00 train ride? Scott "sorry, just sounds a bit odd" B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pvcoasterguy Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 ^ I know it's not true for BMW's, but the Mercedes SUV we have was actually reasonably priced (this was 1999 model year). It cost as much as a Ford Explorer with the options we wanted. Guess which one we picked (duh!) Now that car has 110,000 miles on it, and has never had a serious problem. It's pretty nice, because it's going to be my first car (it's only worth like $5,000 now.) Anyway, the TR was great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheArchfiend Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Let me get this right... they actually asked the people inside the park to pay for these rides? Wow, I'm in the wrong business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandaman Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 The whole Casey thing reminds me of how my friends view me, as well... not in the tackling sense, but I'm about 6'2". Abu Ghraib pose was priceless Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan King Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 Thanks for all the tight comments! Yeah..It was a pretty ghetto Park. Sadly not located in a Foregin Country, therefore not worthy enough of a front page update. But beggers cant be choosers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Great TR Ryan, your captions were hilarious. Looks like you guys had fun despite the ghettoness, looking forward to seeing Bob's pics too. I <3 giraffes. LOL to "Oh no, Casey WAS here!". I miss you so much that my heart thingy hurts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bgwfreak Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 ^^ *Not trying to sound bad or offend anyone*There are tons of Mexicans in Cali. Come on down to the Carolinas. North Carolina is the fastest growing Latino/Mexican population in the US!!! Nice pics... Reminded me of this horrible zoo we went into in Mexico. The lioness was starving (really) the other animals were in dirty nasty pens. The aligators were in really nasty water. It was depressing. I love animals and hate to see them done that way. Needless to say I couldn't muster taking pictures of most of it. Here are a few I took, but you can't tell much from them. This was a zoo in the neighborhood we were in (very poor neighborhood). Yo. Sup? Monkey butt! Poor crocs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedracer Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 ^ True...but one could argue that YOUR point almost makes MY point that much more accurate! Not really, Frenso itself for the most part it just one big ghetto. That park is a great representation of the ghettofab that is Fresno! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 ^ True...but one could argue that YOUR point almost makes MY point that much more accurate!

Ryan King Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 Yeah..It is PRETTY bad around here..lots of picketing due to the strikes that works have about poor wages etc..but your ILLEGAL! Jeez... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerekRx Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Nice TR dude, Fresno certainly is a dump. Its no wonder you went to England with us without any prior knowledge of the place. Looking forward to your next trip, where ever that may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfne2005 Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 I honestly don't get what this park's true intention is. Is it supposed to be a zoo with shitty rides? It felt like the parks in the middle east that were recently shown in a TR. Anyways, I pounded this TR so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisco Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 The other half of the pics. The park is nothing like I remember growing up with. A little more run down. Maybe with the money they are going to start dumping into the zoo will spill over into the rides. and to end this update, Casey, tackle Ryan!!! there used to be animals in here Ryan trying to eat it more great theming Ryan bad! Ryan pounding the ..... STOP! Ryan pounding the witch Ryan pounding the rabbit I think this is where the park is headed Playing Captain Jack Sparrow I think Ryan was praying this day was about over or for us not to get mugged. more nice theming Ryan wasting $4.00 entry fee and $2.00 for a map In Fresno we park were ever we want Ryan having way to much fun with the duck The clown is sad the coaster was closed too! More nice theming This was worth the 2 tickets! Nice theming. I don't understand lights on a coaster when the park is not open at night. Looks like it hasn't run in a while but it was closed. Ryan is very sad! The credit we came for. I remember the coaster being a lot bigger when I was little one of the cups is missing. The Tea Cups have seen better days We don't read Spanish so we didn't know what was going on here. Ryan trying to get into the bathroom were little boys get molested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 This PTR kicks much ass. And as bad as those tea cups look, they probably still run better than the ones at Thorpe Park! dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 LOL Bob, great captions (and photos)! This picture made me sad: It looks like he's saying "yes, I know I've been naughty, and I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do anything wrong, I'll just sit here quietly but.... Could I.... Please... Can I pound you?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great TR btw, I should do a similiar one of Happy Hollow, our version of Rotary Playland, although I think RP just may have them beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan King Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 Happy Hollow sounds like a funny place..pics should be taken! lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Perhaps your next TR should be from Pixie Woods in Stockton, Ryan. I think it still exists. It was a fun place for kids back when I was a kid (w-a-a-a-y before your time), but god only knows what it's like now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
