benzo41190 Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Well this year I went to the wisconsin State fair....what year is complete without the fair. Well the fair is known for great food (including 45 foods on a stick) and the cream puffs! Every year I have been going to the fair with my family and me and my cousins ride the rides. Aug 10th 2006: When we arrived to the fair, we first ate breakfast at a all you can eat pancake place. Since the rides didnt open until 10am, we had a while to walk around. We first played some DDR at a arcade tent place but was a rip off. It was $1 for one song! So we didnt play it for long. After that, we walked around the "expo" center and looked at all the "as seen on TV" products and got to test out some of them! After that, we walked down to the rides since it was 9:45. We first got there and bought our all day wrist band thing. The only thing that was open was the wacky worm. I rode the thing once for the credit and we walked around. Around 10:30, all of the ride were opened and we made a tour aournd the midway. So we then rode the "painfari" coaster twise and we walked of with bad ribs. The guy pulled the brake HARD then our ribs slammed into the lap bar! The next thing we went on was the KMG Freak Out. It was running a 2 full swing program and had a 20 min line OUCH! Then we went in a couple of fun houses and waited for the KMG Spin Out ride to be fixed. There was some sort of restraint problem. Once we got our ride, it was about noon. We made one more ride on the Zamperla "shocker". So when we were on it everyones restraint went down besides mine. Then the ride lifted up and dropped back down. I was scared so I jumped out of my seat and then the Op ran back and told me to sit down. He hit the restaint and it then locked down. I was thinking "I dont want to ride this anymore" but the ride already started. I was really scared and I was wrapping my legs around the bottom of the seats. Since my left arm is cramping up, I will go onto the pictures. Double Shock in motion Here is a special shot of Drop Zone. Hey, you can see inside of my wide angle lense This ride makes me hungry! Free Falling Converse....watch out OP! hey check out my converse shoes while sitting at the top of the Drop Zone People on Drop Zone! The scaries part of the ride! The dirty tarp thing! Im a Pig that buzzes when people go by it! Im hungry!!!! The 30 second Freak Out! "Im so scared"!

If you watch closely, a swarm of UFOs get shot out of it every time it drops. Ohhhh, hes kind of cute....says a trailer trash girl. MMMM Pizza with a roller coater. "Our special today is sexaroni" The Double Shock ride....which take 15 mins to dispatch! The Hurrican ride....Unless you want a shattered pelvis, do not ride! Star Ship! You are getting sleepy.... But watch out for the puddle of water at the bottom! Spiral Ass Burning Slide! Ummm....I have no Idea what this means OOOH! Insest love? Spiral Stair Case in one of the many fun houses. AHHH!

Homer Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 Wheres Olympia Looping? The 2005 fair totally crapped all over the 2006 fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfie Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 What?!?? Olympia looping? What are you talking about? They have never had an olympia looping. Otherwise that's all I would ride for the whole day. Anyways... LOL! Great TR Sorry I couldn't meet up with you last thursday. We ended up going on Monday that week (which I have still failed to put the photo TR up for it) Freak out was definitely the best ride there. Painfari was there last year along with the THREE ferris wheels (WTF?!??). Andrew "That wacky worm was LONG!" C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benzo41190 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 Well, this year there were seven credits....if you count powered. Other wise there was only three. Yeah Freak Out was cool but it could have been longer. I wish they would run rides like they do in Europe. Actual programs and 15 min cycles Well about the Shocker accident... We were getting on the ride and I sat down in a seat that had a closed restraint (all of the other ones were open). So I sit down and wait for them to lower. As everyone else's restraints were lowering, mine wasn't moving much. Then the ride lifted up and I jumped out of my seat (being scared). Then I ran to the Op and yelled "STOP"! So he stopped it, and told me to sit back down. Then he hit the restraint and I went down very fast (normally they go slow down). So the rest of the ride I was clinching my legs on the bottom of the seat and hanging onto the side of the seat dividers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoshiFan Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Wow, $1 for 1 song for DDR? And I thought Fantasy Island in NJ with 2 songs for $1 was a ripoff. I can't imagine most people playing more than once (since you can't see how many songs you get until you put your money in the machine and start the game) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benzo41190 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 It wasn't really intense but it was fun. You are on your side pretty much all of the time and sometimes you get stuck upside down for a few seconds. Its one of those rides were you go "weeeee.....woah.....OMG.....weeeeee.....ahhhhh....cool" Look at the video linked and theres some footage of it.
